Your ride is very sweet! I was thinking about the same brake set up but I might try and get 13" front and 14 or 15" out back to keep the same ratio to the rims.

That thing is awesome, I wish mine were at that point instead of out in the snowbank...

hotrodhomi · 01-17-2008, 04:53 AM

have you mounted the air tank for your bags yet? What size did you use and where is it located?

Blaz-air · 01-18-2008, 12:59 AM

Man that thing gets me excited. It is cool to see it coming together for you. I REALLY WANT A BLAZER, just not bad enought to sell the 47 convertible!

Well, I've collected most of the parts. Does that count for anything?

I'll start soon - I promise..

The guy says he's shipping my uppers THIS week. I'll let you know.......

bagged74 · 01-18-2008, 10:53 AM

You're only about 3 hours away. I hope to be busy working on my truck, but maybe if I'm not I'll come help you with yours.

.....and then you can return the favor some day.

gringoloco · 03-24-2008, 03:16 AM

Cool

Are you molding it into the doors?

bagged74 · 03-24-2008, 04:51 AM

yes it will be molded in to the doors.

Frizzle Fry · 03-24-2008, 05:29 AM

that is my dads shop, i believe the break is a 48" box and pan style from grizzly.

PBFAB.COM · 03-24-2008, 06:18 AM

That dash will definitely add some style to the truck (not that it needs any more!).

I have plans for a Tri-Five truck "cyclopse" style dash in the 69 I am putting together.

killer71 · 03-24-2008, 06:21 AM

Pardon....i meant the baer brakes, wher'd ya get those from...and why so long to get em in.

bagged74 · 03-24-2008, 06:27 AM

lol...sorry, i actually got the from mark @ suprastore.com. It takes a while to get them because they are built per order as the spindles have to be machined.

kyle4381 · 03-24-2008, 06:39 AM

looking good..

ANTHONY 67 · 03-25-2008, 12:52 AM

That dash is looking great

bagged74 · 04-02-2008, 05:49 AM
