68 chevy stepper aKa " jackcrack"
my name is hector and me and my dad have a 68 stepper its black has a 250 and needs work still after 8 years.... it hasnt been worked for 4 1/2 years.. i have been to 3 houses and the hosue i live in now doesnt have room... so my buddy rick (67chevy1series) has his 67 and we work on it and it makes me want to work on mine, but mine spends the night at a strangers house.. he was supposed to change the engine a year and a half ago, so that went south. i will post pics as i go along, just today me and rick went to visit it. and while we were there rick said we should take the instrument bezel ut and well we did and he insistsed that he would restore the guages so i let him he did a good job. anyways heres pics

Re: 68 chevy stepper aKa " jackcrack"
the gauges have been rebuilt and are ready for reinstall (when ever they give me or his dad gives him the green light) they have new to them metal white grill hoops with the patina an they have the hubcaps in the first couple of pics off and are at there house.
the truck needs: 1 radiator support ( rusted under the battery tray) 2 grille (they have it but havent put it on, because its on my dads truck) 3 passenger inner fender (rusted under battery tray) 4 a bench seat from 67 72 or buddy buckets 5 power steering 6 power disc/drum brakes 7 new doors a lot of bondo and they are spreading at the window sill 8 a new engine 9 new front ,rear coil springs they are looking for a 283, 327 or a 250 I6 so thats what there doing and in the process of doing at the moment. hector (fordsucks) computer wasnt loading this truck site (computer doesnt like this site for some reason) so he hasnt gotten the chance to get on alot but when i have pics and have updates i will post unless he says other wise. |
