Re: Maggie's Custom
Happy Birthday and welcome to the site.
I'm really digging your truck. I like the look, I would not change front tires.

Re: Maggie's Custom
I really should be packing, but I'm still working on the truck! Got the brake lines done!! Took the bed back off and welded the bottom side of the braces for the bed floor. Got my bed strips in and I'm going to try and cut some wood this weekend, after a trip to the junk yard for parts I need to get the motor in (have to work all day Saturday) so my plan is to get this all done Sunday! We'll see. In the mean time I started on the front tubs, with the 205 70's I didn't need them, but I figured if I put the 235 70's on later (I bought a set! lol) I'll need tubs!! So here you go!!
My instruction sheet!! lol Thanks coulter!! Few more coming. |

Re: Maggie's Custom
I like those inner fenders, does not over power the original style of the inner fenders. What are you going to do about hood hinges?

Re: Maggie's Custom
Thanks, but I don't take credit for the idea!!
Trimed stock hood hinges (bottom side where spring connects), and a hood strut to hold the hood up, just as coulter did. Super simple. Jason |

Re: Maggie's Custom
I see you ran only one front brake line from the proportioning valve. Are you going to run the other one later?

Re: Maggie's Custom
The instructions said either way will work, it came with a plug in one of the ports, does the front both need to be run seperate from the proprotioning valve?

Mine on my '69 is the same. That same prop valve could be used in a 73-87 application where the front lines are plumbed separatly at the prop valve.
