Re: 68 S/C update.....

Those do look clean! Are you taking the 68 to Moultrie? Me and my dad go there every time they do the swap meet, just not sure when it's going on this year. If so, I'll probably end up seeing you up there.

Love your truck! What's the back spacing on your Weld's? You have done a fantasic job of redoing po's mods. Your truck makes me think, someday. If I'm lucky.

Thanks! I don't know about hooking up better, but it's definitely more fun...

Thanks, I have a great platform to work with. The rears are 15 x 12 with a 6" backspacing.

Due to the lowering the rear and the installation of the new tank, I was having a few exhaust clearance issues. I took it to my muffler man today and he took care of the problem. I also had him add some nice stainless tips, . Here's a couple more pictures.....

Re: 68 S/C update.....

The bed floor patch looks great Rob, how much of a gap between the panels did you have for your welds? I got a long bed floor that I am going to cut down and weld together for my someday crew cab short bed. Keep up the good progress, still waiting to see that sweet Burb done so we can see the ending to that CREW CAB! Trevor

Re: 68 S/C update.....

that exhaust looks great. I've tried three times to get shops to place the tips like that and they FAIL every time. I'll take your pic next time

Sounds good. I don't have anything planned other than putting on my dropped spindles, . Shoot me an email to robhartley@aol.com and I'll send you my phone #.
