Re: '67 Short Step #2

Nice looking engine work. I know alot of guys on here who are going to be jealous of you as gas gets higher in price!

I know, I'll be one of them...

I wonder if they make a fuel cell conversion yet for my '67???...

Re: '67 Short Step #2

man, thats turning out awesome.

and i'm lovin' me some pics of a 6's innards. Those intake ports without the bolt boss should really help out your flow, especially further down the road when you slap a turbo on it.

keep at it, you're on the home stretch!

Re: '67 Short Step #2

Great build thread kyull67....I am envious of all the body work you have done....I think I am going to a community college soon to learn how to weld!!!....

By the way....how's the budget of $5,500 going??....after reading the complete thread...I calculate you've spent $4,400....or maybe I missed something....that's awesome man....

Keep the pics coming....I got a deadline of Late July for my resto.....want to have it ready when I graduate!!!

Re: '67 Short Step #2

Thanks. I haven't had the chance to check the numbers on the budget lately but I think it's looking more like $6,500 when it's completed. Probably a little lower than that but I'll add up the actual numbers when I get a chance and post it.

Re: '67 Short Step #2

OK, You've got me curious so I went ahead and ran some numbers. These are very close but not exact to actual prices.
Truck-$850
Bed-$1000
Wheels and tires-$550
Engine work and ALL parts for it(I don't have a few things yet but added them in)-$2200
Paint Supplies-$500
Body panels etc-$350
Misc small parts-$250 to be safe
Total for now-$5700

I still need to buy Windsheild, Carpet, Pedal Pads, Sill Plates, rear window rubber, and bed wood.
It'll be a little over budget, but who's project isn't?

Re: '67 Short Step #2

gcburdic, he had a house fire and lost the first '67 project, but he rebounded on top and has turned out another great looking '67!

kyull67/bobbo, I think we might try to stop by the show on the way back, as we're heading to KS Saturday morning. Hope to be able to meet up with you guys!

I almost forgot to mention, the truck is looking great. Nice work Kyle!!!

Re: '67 Short Step #2

I may not be able to go to Blue Springs afterall, didn't realize we are so close to the board meet. Definitely going to that.

This truck is turning out great. Love the color and the ideas Kyle has put into it. A real treat for me to help out whenever I can as I can't seem to find the winning lotto ticket to start on mine yet. (People keep telling me you have to BUY a lotto ticket to have a chance of winning, doh!)

Re: '67 Short Step #2

I have the same problem bobbo, never win, but I never purchase the ticket. Oh well.... one more $1 for the truck!

Sorry to hear that you won't be able to make it to Blue Springs, but the board meet is definitely worth saving a little more $$$. I only wish we could have rescheduled our trip, maybe next year!

I forgot to hook up the oil pressure line to the gauge, had a little spill. Who's Andy?

Thanks for posting RobertoBobbo. Made me realize that I want to have the pinstripe done in Black.

Re: '67 Short Step #2

Yes, it is in his garage, and it looks perfect in the pics, but there are a few flaws and a couple things he is going to repair...But it does look sweet all the same. Thinking he is going to paint my truck....
