Lime Wife's 67
 

So i decided to start a build thread on the 67, that will be my wife's truck to drive. We bought it and decided to let her build it the way she wanted but i am doing most of the work:lol:

Re: Lime Wife's 67
 

I took the interior out and started cleaning the floorboards and painted them they were in good shape notice the rockers and bottom of pass. door where replace by the po

Re: Lime Wife's 67
 

i put the carpet and the seat in and she said i don't like the red interior so i that will be changed lol

Re: Lime Wife's 67
 

I got the motor to run for about 30 second poorly though and the wireing was a mess. Then i found out that the oil was getting water in it so i decided just to pull the motor, hauled it to my dads and got it out

Re: Lime Wife's 67

Re: Lime Wife's 67
 

so its an automatic truck? Your lucky to have it converted to disc already..

I wish it would quit raining so I can do some welding!

Re: Lime Wife's 67
 

yea, turbo 350 i don't know who did the conversion but i have a few things to check in rearend area some of the work i think i will double check :lol: but the shifter thats in it is just a cheap-o and it sucks i think a lokar will be far superior to that thing the truck was a striaght six and three on the tree factory (nothing wrong with that i like em) but its been a 350/350 combo for as long as i have known the truck and i here ya on the rain there is a chance all next week, i need a garage it suck working on the dirt:( but i'm glad i'm able to work;)

Re: Lime Wife's 67
 

I have a garage, and my truck is sitting outside a garage

and I dont have a gas tank in it to drive it to my house to work

Re: Lime Wife's 67
 

yea i here ya i go out to my dads where 90% of my stuff is and i have to move something out to get mine in the garage to do something i do all my major work there

Re: Lime Wife's 67
