You most definately will need all three!!! Thanks!!!!! To hear so many people confirm my dream and vision really makes me feel good!!!!

that's a great looking truck; what kind of paint did you use and what is the official color? I may be the only one to ever say this, but I actually really like the stance as-is.

It's dark slate I was looking for me a charcoal gray. I actually fit it off the 2010 nissian maxima/altima!!! It has a blue pearl. The pictures don't really do it justice. I love it, but Lexus actually has a sweeter color. As for the stance.... Umm sorry it's getting bagged, but hey I will be able to air it back up to that stance!!! Lol!!! It wouldn't be my Urban-Retro!!!! Thanks for stopping by showing some love!!!!

Well I messed around and missed placed my hardware all day and didn't get to try the bumper on til night time. it's only mocked fitted. Will be adjusted later. I know some of you die hard enthusiast won't appreciate the foglight bumpers. But hey this is coming out my wallet. (Once again from an Urban perspective)!!

67chevy1series · 02-17-2011, 09:19 PM

spike38 · 02-18-2011, 09:24 AM

Orangetonicclicc · 02-19-2011, 11:09 PM

LMC prices for a Column and steering wheel is outrageous!!!!! By all means $550.00 is no chicken feed, but that's how much I payed for the same thing at the Darryl Starbird show in tulsa from Speed Stuff out of Jefferson City, Mo. Thanks Guys!!!!!

tantrumpipeline · 02-20-2011, 01:10 AM

Love the color, quality build you have going, keep up the good work, don't let the guys who lip get to ya, I don't at all, cool to get the kid involved on the build, when mine's old enough I will pick up a new project for sure

jc67cst · 02-20-2011, 08:53 AM

Very nice looking truck. I am just starting on my 67. Got any advice. Who did you use for most of your parts?

Body parts I got from LMC in the beginning. Then I was turned on to a Local Resto store in my area called Kenny's Truck. Most of the places get there parts from the same vendor. What hurts the customer is the shipping and handling... These trucks are very popular see if someone in your area sells them. As for motor parts , I dealt with Summit and Jegs... Go to car show. You can find great deals!!!!

As for advice. Theirs two things needed to restore a truck. Money or patience. Set a realistic game plan. Don't try and do the truck all at once unless you have deep pockets... Break the truck up in to parts. Suspension, Motor, body parts (cab work, Front clip, bed work) Motor and Tranny, wiring, etc...,I wished I knew about this forum earlier. Good luck. If you need any advice and I can help feel free!!!
