Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
I like em white for now but when you paint it red then paint the wheels red. Maybe some old school beauty rings. the real skinny ones

White- black just looks like a big black hole under the truck. Cool little beat-around truck! (my favorite kind)

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Yeah she's not real pretty on the outside but underneath she's completely rebuilt. Except for the tranny which will be swapped out for a 700r4 sometime this year.

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Score today. As you all may know I am gearing up for a front disc brake swap. Well today a few more pieces of the puzzle came to me for free!! At my job autozone is always trying to get me to buy there brake pads but I never do. Well anyways they came in and offered me a set of brake rotors and pads to try them out. So I said I need a set for a 72 C/10 and they brought me a set of rotors, pads and hardware So far I have the 63-70 CPP new design drop spindles and 3" drop springs. I have a set of used dust shields that I cleaned and painted. Also from pnp I go the castle nuts, washers and dust caps. From a board member I got the front conversion brake hoses. From work I got the bearings, wheel seals and lug nuts. I won the master cylinder and prop valve off eBay from CPP. All I have left to get is the brake line kit from performance online.

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
