Gotta start somewhere, right? How about with a SWB frame...

Zoomin · 12-17-2012, 04:33 PM

Then you get rid of the stuff you don't need.

Stand back and look - still too much...

That's better.

Number98 · 12-17-2012, 04:33 PM

Subscribed.....Looks like a good start to me!

I am getting ready for a similar journey, I picked up a 69 SWB frame a while back for a buddy who has since lost interest and now it's sitting in the corner of the shop and I am planning the build...

Be sure and post up a link to your build, I'll be watching for it.

You're in it up to your eyeballs Kyle.

Kyle's company, Laid Back Recreations (aka LBR) is going to be doing most of the work on this project since I lack the time, space and talent to do this thing myself. He will be doing all the fabrication, paint and body on this one.

**screaminchevypickup** · 12-17-2012, 10:46 PM

Its going to be a fun project!

Great to have you Mike.

This is going to be a fun one, it's going to have some of the same DNA as Square Peg.

The others are still around, but by the time Kyle gets this one done I might have Tom's battery box installed. This one is going to move pretty fast, in spite of the fact I have some big decisions to make on it yet.

Zoomin · 12-18-2012, 12:30 PM

A few items to start filling in the gaps...

The brown truck dropped off 13 packages. The wife sent me this picture along with a snide comment about not being able to get out the door. Needless to say, a discussion ensued about wtf is all this crap for?

Every order Scott's does is made to spec. Justin asked a lot of questions about what I expected the truck to do, what kind of stance I was looking for, etc. After I came to the conclusion I would actually be driving the truck and expecting it to carve some corners, I decided to use his bolt in IFS with the coil over set up.

These pictures actually came from his shop. They completely assemble everything to make sure it goes together before they ship it out.

A friend offered to take delivery for me, but I figure a death by a thousand cuts is better than just showing up at the house one day with a remodeled truck

I've been married 38 years and have tried every method I can think of. This works as bad as any.

I know what you mean. But as you can tell from my build thread the changes to my truck have so far been on the underside, you know the drivetrain and the options. When it comes time for air bags and body panels, she will be well informed

Cause as much as I love my truck, it is the most uncomfortable thing to sleep in.

Thanks! Kyle (screaminchevypickup) is a super talented guy that is the most well rounded individual I've ever met when it comes to restoring these trucks. He paints, he fabricates, he does mechanical stuff - no need to farm anything out, he's truly a one stop shop.

I told him what I wanted to do and he bought right into it.

Fasten your seatbelts, cause he don't mess around.
