ummmm...I kinda like it, like the stripe above the wheel wells....but keeping the bottom solid looks better if you go w/ the stepper...JMHO.....
Still like swb w/ trim with white below the trim....maybe b/c I'm a fleetside guy....

LOW DOUGH · 07-16-2009, 12:27 PM

yeah.... Fleetside guy here too.

I'm still waiting for a response. He's asking $500, good price if it's as nice as the pictures show. I'm pretty sure you won't go home empty handed,

. Plus, I'll give you a tour of my other junk and take you for nice "quiet" ride in the 68 farm truck,

$500 ain't bad....has he sent you more pics of the bed??.....Have you decided on buying it??...Haven't seen any response in the thread??
I'd love to see the rest of your "junk"....and especially a quiet cruise in the farm truck.....you got 5 point belts in that thing?!?!!?

LOW DOUGH · 07-17-2009, 09:34 AM

have you shown the farm truck in here? I can't remember.

Still haven't heard anhything on the bed. I'm sure I'll find one. If not, I'll eventually buy a new one. The farm truck only has lap belts in it.....

. They add to the fun,

The original thread is here: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=344786 I'll start another thread when I get to FL and start the suspension update....

LOW DOUGH · 07-17-2009, 12:09 PM

oh, yeah.. that truck

I Love That Truck!

Thanks!

I made a little more progress on the truck today. I think every "shop truck" needs a good sturdy bumper and nice set of loud mufflers,

. I got the bumper off of the 71 BB camper special that I parted out. It's uber sturdy and should hold up to a decent sized trailer. I also had an extra set of Flowmaster 40 series mufflers with an H-pipe and figured I'd see if they would fit. They bolted up like they were meant to be there,

. If things go well, I will temporaily throw the motor/tranny in tomorrow for the trip back to P-Cola. They'll both have to be pulled and gone through once were moved, but that's gonna have to come later since I only have 13 days left.....

.

STOCKISH · 07-18-2009, 10:42 PM

Looks like those pipes were bent for that truck. Looking good man.

gcburdic · 07-19-2009, 12:37 PM

Looks good Rob....is the front clip there with you or back in FL?....How are you toting the truck back to FL???

The front clip is here (NM). I should have the motor/tranny set in today and then will start putting the front clip on.....

. I'll be using a towbar or tow dolley.

Thanks Jesse. I haven't forgotten about your stuff. I'm not going to ship them until I get back to PCola, and if certain things work out, they may be personally delivered,

That's the problem, to much stuff laying around instead of being put together,

**Hart_Rod** · 07-22-2009, 10:37 PM

I finally got the motor and transmission stabbed. That was a lot of fun doing it by myself.....:/. It kinda sucked putting a dirty motor in the nice frame but I didn't have much choice since I'm running out of time. Here's a couple of pictures.

gcburdic · 07-23-2009, 07:52 AM

Man Rob,

You should of rebuilt that thing before you put it back in there!!!LOL...8 days and counting....

1956cameo · 07-23-2009, 10:50 AM

It is enough of a PITA just to move, I can only imagine trying to do it while putting a truck together at the same time!

I like the drama............

. Plus there's nothing like a hard an fast deadline to get you motivated.

70rs/ss · 07-23-2009, 12:05 PM

Hey Rob that thing is sweet, thanks for letting me kick the tires on it and crawl all around it!! I really could help you out on this deal, just leave it here and I'll take it, you know so you don't have to drag it home w/ya!! Seriously, now all I need to do is get the $$$!!

gcburdic · 07-23-2009, 08:03 PM

how's the front clip coming Rob?

msgross · 07-23-2009, 08:22 PM

He's gonna use the weight against his DITY (do it yourself) military move!

that truck will make you $1,000 just to tow it home Rob... but I would never condone that type of act...LOL
