Re: DURG's Black 65 C10

Looks like member meltmetal is hooking me up with a set of Porterbuilt hood hinge supports so I can move forward with my front bracing. Thanks, Matt!

Re: DURG's Black 65 C10
Here are the Porterbuilt hinge brackets installed. I have made a couple removeable metal plates to weld the 1-1/2" metal tubing to that will run down to the frame horns from each of these brackets. The tubing will be welded into the center hole of the plate and ground flat on the back side. The braces will be attached to a removeable piece on the front of each frame horn as well. I will run a cross brace with a 3/4" heim end on each end that will attach from side to side near the front of the motor somewhere around water outlet height. I am also showing the new AAW main fuse block and the aluminum plate it mounts to. This plate attaches by longer upper bolts that go through the firewall that hold the hinge brackets on which are the OG holes used to attach the OG inner fenders.

Re: DURG's Black 65 C10
I used the complete Classic Update kit on my 62 Impala SS also. Tech support if needed is excellent as well.

Re: DURG's Black 65 C10
Few minor updates: Truck is back on the floor with the new a-arms installed with good adjustibilty on camber. I am toying with the idea of running a 61-62 style Impala barrel shroud as the stock fiberglass/plastic one won't be as easy to install as my radiator to engine height is different now. (I know the fan needs to move back to be centered) I used some PVC pipe to mock up how I want the front bracing to go. Went to get it bent yesterday at a near by racing chassis place but they were not working. I will be running a rod with heim ends from side to side connecting to where the lower elbows are shown on the braces. This will all be removeable. I am bolting a flat plate on the front frame horns that the braces will weld to on that end like onto the hood hinge brackets. Truck is shown at ride height.

Re: DURG's Black 65 C10
What did you have to change with your a-arms?

Re: DURG's Black 65 C10
Slightly shorter so I could have some camber adjustment.

Re: DURG's Black 65 C10
Man, I like EVERYTHING about this truck! It's the right year, the right color, the right parts, and it sits perfect.

Re: DURG's Black 65 C10
Thanks, it will all be coming back down to a bare frame for painting before it's done and money is tight for the engine department right now as it looks like I will be going to 32 hour work weeks thanks to the inept politicians. I'm shooting for summer of 2014 realistically.

Re: DURG's Black 65 C10
Got my front bracing roughed in down to the frame horns. There will be a cross brace to tie them together but I need to know where my accessory drive package will end up before I can commit to its location. I am leaning toward a GM Performance crate 350/330 setup with the front serpentine drive. The Impala twin is getting ready for spring. I still have snow on the ground here though.

Re: DURG's Black 65 C10
Great work on the support bars.
I highly recommend any drive from Billet Specialties. V-trac or Tru-trac would be my first choice. Vintage Air's Front Runner set up would be my second choice.

After looking at them it appears triple the price 1795.00 with no A/C pump in polished.
