My 67 big window swb
Hi guys, I recently picked up a 67 big window shortbed truck. I drove about 3 hours south into Oregon and picked it up on 9/24. Since then I've replaced the dented/creased front bumper, upper/lower balljoints, inner/outer tierods/sleeves, pitman arm, idler arm, rag joint, drop springs, lower control arms, f/r shocks, side mirrors and wheels and tires. The truck has a gm crate 350 with a 700r4 trans, power disk brakes up front, tilt steering column, gas tank relocated to under the bed. I'm currently waiting on a new rear view mirror , 3.5" stainless exhaust tips, lap belts, and few other miscellaneous things to show up. Big thanks to lolife99 for the help with figuring out that I needed all 73+ front end parts.
Onto the pictures. The day I picked it up. new front bumper w/ driving lights Interior |

Re: My 67 big window swb
Thanks! Yeah, the front end was a bit of a learning curve for me. I ordered a full front end kit for a 67, not knowing that everything was swapped to do the disk brake conversion. Nothing fit. Lol lolife99 saved me on that one. Great guy to get info from.

Re: My 67 big window swb
Thanks! Yeah, the 99 usually keeps people scratching their heads. A lot of people think it's a dodge because the body lines are shaved, 89-93 caddilac tails and hd hood.
