Now I have seen the kids you can get that look as if they are sitting in the corner and people prop them up against their cars at teh shows. I think I like your take on things a bit better

Thanks Kevin! I actually took the easy(??) route and swapped out the '62 LWB frame for a '63 SWB frame.

You mean the brown and tan? I bought the truck like that, I think that was its third paint scheme. I'm going to do a similar scheme, but with some greens, and maybe some metal flake to really give it that 60's look!

Oh I must have my trucks mixed up, I thought this was the same ride over at Supreme Kustoms here in LA. Its getting a nice orange/blue flake job.

satin64 · 12-03-2007, 05:06 PM

thanks to dingfodgy, i have a frame with the trailing arm set up thats totally complete.now i have to swap it to my gmc.my question is,how do you tell which bags you need and buckets?what else do i need to bag the back?im sure the notch depends on the drop and i can figure it out.

prenn · 12-04-2007, 06:11 PM

Oh, ok. If we're thinking of the same truck, then that's a 66, and it belongs to DM310. I bought a parts truck off of him.

The rear is just a simple 2-link with a panhard bar. Not the most performance oriented setup, but it works. I'm actually thinking about re-doing it so the rearend has some articulation. For the front I used an '82 crossmember, Z'd the frame 3", 3" drop spindles, and bags.

Here's some pics of the frame:

I was planning on it, but may not due to this, I can't find a freeking windshield locally!:

thekid54 · 12-06-2007, 12:14 AM

Hey Chris, what's going on man?! I like the new rear setup, it looks great! When are you going to get that bad boy on the road?

64shortc10 · 12-06-2007, 12:58 AM

Thekid54,

Thanks for the rear setup info, but now i'm thinking about staying on trailing arms? I love the way your truck is looking "old school"! I think i'm going to flat black mine with green pinstripes? Thanks again!

Dm310,

just curious how big of a tire your truck would of layed with a regular step notch, block, and the trailing arms hitting the frame? I wanna bag mine and i'm thinking of staying on trailing arms and i'm on 20's with about a 28 in. tire think it will lay? Thanks later
