Project ''Tailor Made'' LOWESTSIXTY7

So i have been kinda hanging around here for awhile....figured i would start a little build thread about my truck. Its a 67' from the state of Washington so 9it had a lot of rust. Not a big deal. So this is what we have done to it...
Chopped 3 1/4''
Sectioned Body 1 1/2'' (3/4'' above and 3/4'' below lower body line)
Shortened Short bed 3'' total (Some in front and some in back)
Complete Frame
Bodydropped to the Door
Shortened front fenders 3/4''
Shortened the total wheel base 2''
Custom Front End Sheetmetal
Fuel Injected LT1
All Stainless Steel Headers
Holeset Turbo (Front Mount)
Custom sheetmetal center counsel
and a bunch of more stuff....

I work at IF Customs and the truck has been being built there with the help of friends. Should be done by SEMA next year

Pics coming tonight....

Re: Project ''Tailor Made'' LOWESTSIXTY7

I knew I reconized your truck. You have done a lot since the last time I checked out the IF website. That dash reminds me of Chris's truck. I hooked up with you guys in Conway Arkansas and followed you all to Greenville. I wish they would wise up and hook it up again.

Your truck is looking really good. I love all the metal fabrication. Your interior is going to be really trick. Keep the pictures coming.

Cool truck, looks like lots of man hours going into this one. I recognize that green truck next to it from years back as well.
