Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

Lookin' good rick. Trim sets it off, gonna look really good with painted wheels caps.

You should paint the roof white too.

Jeep springs

Cut a coil

homade shock relocators

BEFORE you do the alignment to get it on the road!

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

since there are so many posts in your thread, I think you need to do a "progress report" post and give us some pictures of where you are with the body, interior, engine, and anything else!

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

Rick you sure do BS fast. Two weeks ago when I last had a lot of time to spend on here you were on page 25

The green caps turned out nice you can send them back now.

Your truck is looking sweet cant wait to see it with the red rims.

Leave the column and wheel red.

Sure, buying parts is progress. It's like the ant preparing for the winter by gathering food. We are just gathering parts instead. You're still doing something to get your truck closer to its final state. I've made a lot of progress lately in that regards

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

Look what I found today.



The red arrow is pointing to a groove I am gonna weld up tomorrow

How good are you at wiring? I found a bare spot that will have to be repaired before use... It is all covered in crud, but I think it is for the back up light switch

Here is where it mounts to the frame.
