A little side tracked still. I sold my 2004 Z71 and bought this 2006 crew cab. Its been a while since I have had a 2wd. This one caught my eye and I decided I had to have it. My first black vehicle, and probably my last. I guess I will find out how long I can take it, keeping it clean and all. The only good thing is I drive about 4,000 miles a year and have a garage to keep it in.

PipsC10 · 07-15-2010, 12:17 AM

a little better picture of the new ride. 3/5 drop with 22 inch weld evo velociti 6's.

PipsC10 · 08-23-2010, 08:03 PM

I am slowing gathering more parts and should have a little more progress soon. I ordered an entropy radiator with fans, thermostat and housing, LFD's gas petal conversion kit, throttle cable, transmission kick down cable, plug wires and wire looms. Once I get my front pulley system I should be able to fire this thing back up. I am still shooting for the 1st of the year. I think I can make it.

PipsC10 · 08-23-2010, 08:06 PM

here is the throttle cable and mount, the kickdown cable will install on the bracket and match the throttle cable.

PipsC10 · 08-23-2010, 08:09 PM

back to saving some cheddar cause this is next.........

70LonghornCST · 09-27-2010, 01:05 AM

By the way, your truck is coming along wonderfully!

magwakeenercew2jh · 09-28-2010, 12:46 AM

I'm looking forward to the A****er gathering, too.

Hey, if anyone that's going to be there needs any stock air conditioning stuff- minus the register (dash)- it's yours. I'll bring it. I just pulled it out of the '71 donor cab that's off to the squisher due to rust disease.

And, if anyone coming has a passenger side inner fender that will fit the '68 cab/'71 frame combo, I'd love to get it from you on the 2nd.

Can't wait to meet a bunch of you folks.

PipsC10 · 10-03-2010, 02:28 PM

I love getting these boxes from UPS! After seeing all the bad ass trucks at the C/10 gathering yesterday I had to put my grill together so I could use it as garage wall art and inspiration!

PipsC10 · 10-04-2010, 11:26 PM

some progress is good progress I guess. installed some more parts for mock up. The booster from ECE is a cool piece. The wire looms I waited over a month for and I finally finished my radiator installed minus a few minor adjustments to come later. The gas filler cap is a work in progress.

PipsC10 · 10-04-2010, 11:33 PM

Sorry if it has been asked before but what radiator are you running? Also what cable set up are you running for throttle and trans? Loving the black btw, its likely similar to what I will be doing.

VA72C10 · 10-05-2010, 01:40 AM

Love the look of that engine!

Hubscrub · 10-11-2010, 09:33 PM

Boy, so do I. As a matter of fact, although it will never get to the place yours is, here's what I'm doing right now.
