Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
That is a real good one Chris. I like this one myself, of course I am a bit prejudice because of the photographer.

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
Thanks guys, I'm enjoying it ! With winter here , I'm taking the downtime to make a few changes and a few upgrades . First thing that had to go was the Detroit Locker in the rear . When I bought the unit many years ago , the truck was being built as more of a weekend warrior thing . Those of you that have run them know exactly what I'm talking about . They're great, tough units . But extremely aggresive and they don't ever let you forget they're back there ! The ratchet noise was driving me nuts . I want it nice and quiet so it's getting replaced with a Trac Loc unit .
Also on the list is new kick panels in leather to match the seat . New radiator cover, Porterbuilt hood hinges and Hills inner fenders .

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
Chris, I just re-read your whole build thread. I'm one of the lucky ones that gets to see it fairly often, but I still forget exactly how much detail you have gone through in order to get it where it is now. It is definitely deserving of the TOTM, and you know I will vote for it in the TOTY poll which should be coming up soon.
