Re: 1970 Longbed Build
Change of plans (again). Decided to pick up a strong running 350 out of a Chevelle from a buddy. I'm going to put this in and get it to the bodyshop to finish the truck up for the next owner.
Cleaning up the motor today. Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: 1970 Longbed Build
Got the motor in, and pretty close to getting it fired up.
Wheels are back from the powdercoaters. 15x6.5" with Chevy Astro van centers with 235/75/15 up front. |

Re: 1970 Longbed Build
She's back from the dead. Motor runs great and just got all four new tires mounted up with powdercoated rally wheels.
Off to the bodyshop later today... |

Re: 1970 Longbed Build
That's what I need on my truck. I guess you just couldn't wait to install some PB stuff?

Re: 1970 Longbed Build
Back from paint today. It's amazing how little time I have with two little screaming mouths every 1.5-3 hours right now, around the clock. I was hoping to have paint done weeks ago.
Anyway, I need to pick up some bumpers and I think she's good to go. |

Re: 1970 Longbed Build
Looks good. Do you have the measurements for the good letters?
