Thanks Katrina/10.....Here's a couple more....lol

Got my perches & shock mounts shaved off the 12 bolt, ready for the 4 link.

Notches are in & section of the frame cut out.

Will tuck more, need to cut the middle stake pockets.

Thanks 67cheby, been keeping an eye on your projects as well. Lookin forward to Square peg's completion.

BLUIDVL · 04-15-2013, 01:02 AM

Got her off the stands today, lovin the stance.

Have to trim out the front fenders & hood some more.

Next on the list is to mock up engine & tranny.

Incredible, some seriously clean work happening in your garage! Those cab mounts you made, are they stock height? Or a slight body drop?

If i tried to section and weld a box like that, it would be unsalvagable! Wish i could weld like that. I dunno how you guys weld so nicely and not warp everything like i do.

Great to see lots of photos, will be awesome to follow along.

Thank ya smoknbarrels. As for the cab mounts, i made them to stock height. When i start back on my 69 ill be making them for a body drop.

Dont be too hard on yourself, the pics that i dont show are the ones of a box i already tried to shorten and well....... lets just say its someones ashtray in China now.

Yeah im always into seeing lots of photos of peoples build, so i like to give back,lol.

Ryan, good meeting you man. Your gonna have to stop by in the new year and i still have my eyes out for a TG for ya.

Well no updates on the 69 or 70 but here is some pics of a 87 i picked up before Christmas.

So far i've dropped it 5/7, shaved the TG handle, installed a Jimmy TG band, installed new true dual exhaust, removed step bumper, swapped front end to a 91 and mounted my wheels & tires.

On a different note, being New Years Eve.

Id like to wish all 47-Present forum members & families a healthy & prosperous 2014.

HAPPY NEW YEARS!!

YBNORML · 12-31-2013, 06:44 PM

Too bad, I was just there. I was in West Van for a week then Coquitlam for a week, both for work but had tons of free time.

The new one looks good, nice and simple.

davidhelgesen · 01-02-2014, 04:51 AM

Trucks look great. How often do you come across Porterbuilt stuff on CL in the lower mainland area?

Thanks DH, as for finding PB on CL it was a complete and utter fluke. I remember emailing the seller over 10 times before i heard a response, borderline stalker LOL.

Seventy Two · 01-12-2014, 09:56 PM
