Re: 1969 Short Wide
I wanted to add some pics of the interior. I forgot I built a plywood piece to go where the gas tank was originally, then covered it with carpet. I didn't document any of this either.
Sorry for crappy cell pics. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Mike, interior is perfect, you nailed it. Cant wait to see you rolling down the road in this thing. I know you will drive it when you get finished, but putting these things together is just as fun. Didn't you say Landon had a 67 that was next on the list?

Re: 1969 Short Wide
This truck is turning out awesome. I bet you have a ton of time tied up in that gauge cluster but it fits the truck perfect. Can't wait to see it done!

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Better than when the General rolled it off the assembly line in 69. Nice job on the inside. Does it have that new car smell?

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Your Interior looks amazing Mike! I really like the black interior against the red paint.

Re: 1969 Short Wide
The pictures might be less than you hoped but the interior of the truck looks great.

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Another late night in the shop last night. Got the Cowl installed, then hinges, hood and finally the bumper.
Tonight, I am getting some tires and hopefully installing the bed. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Looks good. The bumper makes a big difference. You must be clearing out a lot of space in the shop as you install parts. You must have been nervous with all of those nicely painted parts sitting around.
I see you have a 292 emblem on the fender. Is that the Cubic inch equivalent of 4.8 liters? You should be driving by Labor Day, for sure.

Nice catch on the engine badging. I went back and forth on this, thought about making custom badges but decided not to. I have been catching some crap about it from my boys but I like it. I'm sure the inline 6 guys won't like it either but hey, it's a little different. And yes 4.8 liters = 292.9 Cubic inches. I know I rounded down but it is what it is...... ![]() Thanks Keith. |

Re: 1969 Short Wide
I think the 292 badge is an excellent idea, I would have never thought of that.
