Re: Rollback! Oh my!
If you're going to go to the trouble of putting a hydroboost on it, might as well drop in a 6.0 and a 4l80e......

Re: Rollback! Oh my!
Thanks everybody,

Oh believe me I have thought hard about it! I just got it back home this afternoon. My buddy did the front brakes and shocks and rebuilt the 2 barrel Quadrajet carburetor for me. I had to put a battery in it also. Man it drove great I rode around for about a hr. Stopped by another buddies that I buy all my tires from to check on prices for new ones. $110. each installed! $660.00 TOTAL. I need the front 2 now so next week it gets them. I'll work some over time and get the rears later. For it to be a 67 it does drive nice though for what it is.

Re: Rollback! Oh my!
Now that you mention tires!That's a great price!
I bought tires last year for 2 trucks! A problem I have with mine is where to put the spare? Mike.

Re: Rollback! Oh my!
My son has been very helpful with my tires for the Ramp truck.
He started working for a place that he fixes flats on the 18 wheeliers out on the interstate. He got me 4 like new tires off of a service truck with Plenty of miles left on them.
