Re: Show your current set up and how you got there or where its goin.
The shifter is just an old B&M Quick Silver one. Someday I will go with a Lokar I think. The glove box was pinstriped (along with the ash tray) by Nub at nubgrafix.com He did a great job. Just sent him my ideas with this old Chevrolet script

Re: Show your current set up and how you got there or where its goin.
I think this is the most original idea and twist I've seen so far. Is this going to have the forward flip front cap?

Re: Show your current set up and how you got there or where its goin.
Sorry just saw this now, I'm running front & rear Porterbuilt Dropmembers. I have tons of pics in my build thread if you want to take a look.
Nice job on the LS install, an LS is in the future for my truck too but after I finish painting it and get it on the road.

Re: Show your current set up and how you got there or where its goin.
No I had it done by a guy in Texas. Gerald @ whatadesigns. Funny thing was we actually went to the same small college in OK at the same time, but I didn't know him. I got his info from "N2Trux".

Re: Show your current set up and how you got there or where its goin.
Bringing back the dead...... I sold the 69 and am looking to start a new build. Looking for inspiration. Help revive this post and let's see some new projects and progress on old ones.

Re: Show your current set up and how you got there or where its goin.
The truck was last registered 1989 and sat in a Wyoming cattle pasture for all those years. It now is a driver with a 1970 Chevelle 396/402 with Corvette heads and plenty of power. Next to do is lower RPMs at highway speed. It runs about 3300 rpm's at 65 mph. I am going to try some 32" tires in the rear. That should bring me down to about 2500 rpm's I am thinking???
