Re: Project OverKill

Looking good Alex....geez...that thing is REALLY rust free....my red C20 has very little rust but your's is amazing! Great job!

Re: Project OverKill

Damn, I guess I had better get the shop cleaned up!!!!!!

Re: Project OverKill

If all else fails, I still have a gooseneck flatdeck. It has a winch, I just need to replace the solenoid.

Re: Project OverKill

Alex Looks good! I had talked to you about spray in liner in my Blazer But The Motor finally died. Looks like a really good start and can't wait to see more done.

Re: Project OverKill

I remember! Agree, I think this is a great truck to start with! Going to go slow and do it right. Lots of OverKill things planned.

Re: Project OverKill

Alex, you and Bob are welcome to use my car trailer when the time comes to save Bob some work.

Re: Project OverKill

Alex - I would leave it as a roller. Easier to move around, and it helps when it is time to pull the two halves together.

Chris - That would be awesome! My gooseneck is heavy. Does yours have a 6-way or 7-way plug? I have an adapter if it is a 6-way. You wanna go too when the day comes?

Re: Project OverKill

I'll ready the frame down on this end....really appreciate the help!!!

Sure, I'm up for a ride. It has no brakes, flat four, but I have the adapter for 6 to 4. Not like we'll need brakes for a roller frame anyways.

Re: Project OverKill

OK, I'll grab my 7 to 6 adapter, then we can plug yours into that one. Wait, I might have a 7 to 4 adapter. I need to look in the shop.

Re: Project OverKill

Had just a lil' time today to yank the old tired 307 engine out. Little more progress, cab comes off next!!!

Re: Project OverKill

Yes yes...I feel VERY lucky to have found it (I had been looking for the "right truck" for almost a year) ,...and then to have had the opportunity to buy it. It was a REAL deal for $960.00! I have some really nice plans for her. New short bed with an oak floor, 5 speed, nicely massaged 350 or 383, ECE on the corners, sway bars front and back....not telling the color right now but she will be two tone. I'm a savin' and a savin' every day budgeting and a planning.

Alex

Re: Project OverKill

Hey all you Colorado folk. I am moving to Englewood in about 10 days. Would love to meet up with you guys sometime. My truck will be staying behind for a few months until our house here sells. Anyway Alex that Truck is kickin I would kill to get my hands on a truck that clean! I really want to build another 67 SWB for a daily driver. Anyway keep the pics coming I know it is going to be great!

Thanks,
Ken

Re: Project OverKill

wowza, this project is rolling right along. good to see the old rig getting the love it deserves. look forward to seeing updates.:metal:

Re: Project OverKill

Little more done today. Got the cab completely stripped down. Just need to remove the keyed ignition...the old big paper clip trick. The wiring harness was as original and not one cut in it anywhere!!! It is amazing to me!!!

Re: Project OverKill

Damn that's a nice cab :cool:

Re: Project OverKill

Looking good Alex....boy, when you start a teardown, you don't fool around! :)

That is a REALLY NICE CAB on that old girl! :)
