50th Anniversary Longhorn Progress
 

Well...off to the third painter now...LOL! First it was me, then ORENCE1, then Kenny Rasmussen, and now Andy. Andy will finish this project for sure. I've only got about $300 into the paint thus far so I not feeling badly...just wish I had more aggressive about getting the darned thing done. That's what happens when you get busy doing your wife's projects...NOW SHE IS GOING TO PAY...LOL!

Bob...just making progress...been so busy working that I have not even been on the board much. Rene, Thanks for the comments. Those are 8.25 x 16.5 wheels with 33x12.5's on the back and 31x10.5's on the front. That was the way they used to run the camper tires. I'm going with 33x12.5's all around on 9.75 x 16.5 rims. Wait until you see them!!!!

Does anyone know production numbers on 50th Anniversary Longhorns? My grandpa has a '68 with a 327, A/C, buddy buckets, and even a matching '68 pickup bed camper...it truck has had one repaint (they left off the white....idk why...) but the interior and camper still look and smell like pristine '68.

Lance, Stock colors...Anniversary Gold and white (Ivory). I want it bone stock in appearance with the exception of the big block 454 under the hood. I am also painting the engine compartment gold so there is a little deviation from stock.

Andy, Still a long ways to go. Sound insulation, finish the engine and all new wiring. I really want it on the road this summer.
