Re: Project: Blank Slate

Nate, I am a little late to the party. Your truck came out great looks very clean. I also had a really clean bone stock one owner '69 to start with. The paint was no where as nice as yours but all else was babied and had very little rust.
I did the same ECE disk conversion and made the same spacer and filed the original bracket just as you did. I wonder why ECE does not fix this and requires the use of a different hose.

That is probably true, especially since the progress items have been just feet away for quite some time.

Glad you could join us Mike.

Great looking '69! I love what you've done with it and can't wait to see what else you have instore for it. You decinitely picked the right supplier for parts as there isn't another vendor I would order the suspension/brake kit from IMO. I had a little help with the spacer... make that a lot of help.

Keep us posted on the future progress of your build.

Happy New Year's guys!
Nate

You guys are really tempting me with this... but at this, bags are not "slated" for this project.
