Re: Noob. 67 shortbed stepside DD
Felt like putting this up. I pulled my truck out and parked it next to a customer's 78 shortbed. What a height difference

Re: Noob. 67 shortbed stepside DD
Here is the color scheme I decided on for the engine. The reast of the truck will follow with rattle can Flat Black. Very slow process. Anywho, let me know what yall think.

Re: Noob. 67 shortbed stepside DD
perfect for an interstate battery I've always loved a gloss green against black or flat black

Re: Noob. 67 shortbed stepside DD
I really like that color combo and Nice truck!

...but do yourself a BIG favor and get rid of that air filter...it's foam and if you ever have a backfire it WILL catch fire. I know from personal experience...you don't want to get your truck finished and have it burn up....

Thankfully I was tuning the carb when it happened and I could throw a rag on it but it went up QUICKLY...

I saw it after I took it off. i painted it just because. It was melted a little so it's out. Cant wait to get the engine out, painted, and reassembled so I can start on the body work.

Re: Noob. 67 shortbed stepside DD
Ok. Work is rediculous right now. But, we have a 1998 ( I think) Tahoe for parts. I was wondering if the disc brake setup would work on my 67. Taking the control arms and everything. Along with the Booster/master cylinder, tilt column, and trans. Seeing if it's possible. Let me know
