Re: Project: Recycle
Scoti
What is the latest on your projects? Did you get your dually finished so that you can get back to this one?

I did sandblast the accessory brackets this weekend to get everything looking nice & uniform. That was the one of the projects that needed to be completed so the front of the motor can be put to bed. I have to procure a couple of 'wearables' for the accessories this week, a splash of color, & I'll be done w/that. The motor is still sitting on the stand in the garage. I'll need help getting things installed w/o screwing up painted items & my buddy has been working the last 3 Saturdays @ work. I feel he works hard enough as it is & don't want him to have to put in a Sunday as well turning wrenches. He did clean up a spare pair of v.covers for me in their parts cleaning tank for the re-install as well as cleaned the oil-cooler hard lines. I tried soaking the v.covers in degreaser & it wasn't getting them clean (lot's of crusty stuff). It's looking like it might get slid back into place over the Thanksgiving weekend (pending the weather). With the holidays coming, that means a busier work schedule so I won't get back on the 64 until after the new year....

Re: Project: Recycle
No build thread for the dually even though it deserved one. Motor swap is done as is 90% of the suspension. Should be getting the extra front a-arms back today (last of the suspension mods).
Air system mounted & functional. Carpet, Boom-mat, & MLV down on the floor. Buckets & console mounted. Material ordered. Headliner done. Full stainless exhaust done. Been contemplating bigger wheels but will likely stick w/16's just to get this distraction done & out of the way.... Plan was to be off this week & knock a few things out but unexpected issue (minor foot surgery) has limited activity so far. I'm up & at it today (hope the doc isn't reading this) & pushing forward. Meanwhile, Recycle is right here full of dust & moth-balls next in line. Thanks for the interest & inquiries!

Re: Project: Recycle
Dually build.....
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=640843 64 related? I'm always watching for deals on stuff I need (want).... I did secure a 9" rear w/3.50 ratio, posi, & disc brakes over the summer that's shorter vs the current 68 12bolt housing & recently purchased a wiper delay kit for when the interior is re-assembled. Still hunting for a decent column but might just get something aftermarket. I'm holding off for now but the other big purchases will be Vintage Air & alternative rolling stock (still traditional; just lighter ).
