My old lady

I've been working on my truck again, so I thought I would start another build thread. I really enjoy this website, i use it constantly for research and inspiration. It is a long time in the making and still needs a lot of work but I love spending time with her and she doesn't nag me too much. Its been about 4.5 years since i started this project, i worked hard on it for a bout a year, lost interest and money for a long time, but a few month ago I started again. Hopefully, I won't stop again until she is drive-able because i've realized how useless she is to me in pieces in the garage. dropmember, porterbuilt lower control arms, slam bags, accu-air, 383, sway-bars, wishbone 3-link, back-halfed, boxed frame, etc. I'll try to keep these pictures in order...
Started as a daily driver

Re: My old lady

next time i take the bed and cab off, i'll snap some pictures of my stainless air lines and take the time to run the ss brake and fuel lines. Im looking to buy that under dash brake assembly mc/ booster combo first so i know where to run the brake lines to first. im running 4 wheel discs, thanks to the impala caliper brackets i got here, so i need to figure out what prop valve to get. Once the brakes are wrapped up i can worry about the steering column. i'm looking for a stainless ididit or similair. Then i need to wire the whole truck. i still haven't figured out the heated seat wiring though. i would love to put 20s in the front, 22 in the back but those can wait
