Re: dinos just a clean bagged 66 shortbed
Rebuild the factory radiator and polish the upper tank. With that shroud Joe is knocking out, the polished brass would be cool!

Re: dinos just a clean bagged 66 shortbed
I'm diggin' the upper radiator trim piece. Nice touch.
Actually, by design, it's a smart mod. You want all of the incoming air to go through the radiator. Openings and gaps create turbulence, and that can make the air tumble and not go through the radiator as efficiently as it could with a smooth, undisturbed flow path.

Re: dinos just a clean bagged 66 shortbed
truck looks killer dino! last weekend i was driving thru arizona to cali but it was like 2 a.m. next time i make a trip out that way i'll have to let you know and drive down there from flagstaff! when i was driving thru flagstaff it was snowing and they closed the roads and a semi was facing eastbound on the westbound side of the highway, it was pretty crazy i couldnt see anything! once again truck looks killer and i like those seats! are you going to only run one air tank, for the front and back??

Did the TriPlus repop fenders require any rework to get them to bolt up? After reading what this guy went through with the TriPlus front end parts, I had pretty much written them off as an option. http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vboa...d.php?t=508609 |

Re: dinos just a clean bagged 66 shortbed
Truck is coming out awesome Dino! I was wondering if you were gonna trim your fenders,they looked a little close in one of the pictures. engine bay is coming out super clean. I have a couple of ?s for ya. I pancaked my front crossmember yesterday and want to move up the steering now. when you did this on yours how much did you move up your steering and did you move it forward at all? I took out 2" if that helps. And can you post up a good pic of your steering box point and steering notches. Keep up the great work man!
