Re: '66 Budget friendly driver
Nice seat! Do you mind me asking what that upholstery job cost?

Re: '66 Budget friendly driver
I just couldn't stand it. I stripped down the bumpers to give them a fresh coat of white. The rear one was already painted primer grey. I wanted to paint it, so I did the front to as well. I'm trying not to refinish much on the truck. Keeping it as OG as I can

Also finished getting all of the Precision Replacement Parts rubber seals back in the doors. Vent windows, window felts, run channelsome and all new glass. Everything looks and works perfectly

Back and front glass installed. She's ready to drive again! Fuel pump was bad this morning though. Had to change it before she'd drive to far. Lol

Thank you. I think it's just about finished. I need to get some tires on it soon. I will probably do 15x8 for the rear to give it more attitude. I will post some better pictures of it soon

Re: '66 Budget friendly driver
Well today the ol 66 arrived at the QA1 headquarters in Minneapolis! Dirty ass hell!

The team there is going to install their all new full coil over suspension. I'll update pictures along the way.

QA1 will also be filming the entire install for thier how-to-video.

I'm really stoked. The products QA1 puts out are the best. Period. Go to thier website and check it out.
