Re: 62 Build
Yep I wanted something different for the battery location and putting it in the bed has been done hundreds of times. Works great and the battery switch is hidden in the frame.

Awesome truck! Great to see such a clean '62, you did a fantastic job. I bet that motor is fun to say the least. Any more pics?

Re: 62 Build
Chevhell, this is a really nice truck and a great job in such a short time. May I ask about your lowering specifics? Do you still have torsions?

Re: 62 Build
The truck has a Fatman front suspension with coil overs and the rear still has factory trailing arms with lowered springs. I had to notch the frame which was pretty tricky, I found nothing aftermarket for the pre 63 frames. I'll get some pics up on that as it turned out pretty sweet. My buddy stretched the rear wheel tubs 2 1/2 inches to accommodate the 10in wheel. I'll post some pics on those as well.

Re: 62 Build
Best investment in a motor build is a dyno hands down. Numbers don't lie.
