Re: Baby Blue 1967 Renew Project

Awesome truck. Your truck sits real nice for not having any crossmember mods. I think I might sell my 2.5" drop spindles and buy 3" now lol

Re: Baby Blue 1967 Renew Project

It's running now. The engine has been broken in. I sent the headers out for coating and just re-installed them last night. A few more small things and it's ready to take on a test drive. I'll probably be starting back on the bodywork for the bed and be painting again sometime in the next 2-3 weeks. The weather was super nice for a few days but it's cold again.

Planning on shooting the bed floor tomorrow. Boy am I sick of sanding the ribs. Hopefully it comes out nice. I'll try to get some after pics of it.

Re: Baby Blue 1967 Renew Project

Is this truck ever going to be for sale?
Or is it a "keeper"?

Re: Baby Blue 1967 Renew Project

I've got so much time wrapped up in this thing over the past 2 years. I think my wife wants to enjoy it for a little while at least. It's pegged to be a House of Kolor display truck at the Nationals here in a week and I know she's already talking about entertaining offers if they are made at the show but it would have to be silly money. I've only got 11 miles of test driving so far. I guess I don't have a solid answer on whether it'll come up for sale anytime soon or not.

When Raymond is completed it won't even be forsale at any price...
