Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
I've been paying attention, but did I miss the bottom line of hours and "low"bucks?

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
I don't think 400hrs is over the top;I've spent over 500hrs on a '72 GMC and the owner did all the chassis and mech work.

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
That's a good investment right there. A classic truck w/the modern conveniences & some great documentation of the build process. The right buyer is out there!

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
I am surprised you haven't sold it yet, I thought it would have been long gone by now. Good luck.

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Hey man great job! I was just wondering about these clips you called them I cant seem to find them anywhere I'm a beginner and I'm sure these will help a ton. Is there another name for them and where can I get some I couldn't find them on Eastwood. Thanks in advance

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Eastwood's part #19016 But I find mine at stores like post tools or harbor frieght tools for much less. Eastwoods is about $25 for 4 and I can find them from time to time for about $10 for 20

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Thanks Kevin! I had tried searching for panel clamps but it came up with some c clamp style panel clamps. I found them using the parts number so thanks again! I live in the middle of nowhere and the closest city is 50km away(like 30 miles) and its not a very big city so I will be ordering most of my tools and parts through catalogs and such.

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Thanks Jim, turned out to be a nice day and one of the larger turn outs in quite awhile.
I liked checking out the Auto Cross course as well, it was a nice change until Air Ride have a motor failure and ended up putting their Nova in the wall ![]() Kevin LFD Inc. [IMG] ![]() [IMG] ![]() [IMG] ![]() Last edited by Rokcrln; 05-31-2009 at 01:17 AM. |

OUCH! I missed that one. That was a tight course, but some of those guys had it down.

Scary that the runoff for the finish line was straight into the DJ booth... backed by a chain link fence and spectators.
