I have a 1973 Chevy 1 ton short box. It has a 10" suspension lift, dana 60 front open,14 bolt full floater rear with a detroit locker and 4:56 gears. For now it has a 413 sb, 400 tranny with 3000 stall converter, and a divorced 205 tcase. The gas tank's already in back and radiator's going back there also. It has a fiberglass tilt front clip also and i run 38.5 tsl super swampers.  It's currently getting put together in the garage, can't wait for spring!

nice rig

[Bryank]

nice rig

thanks, i got beer and pretzels out to the garage i go.thinkin about tearing the dash out and gutting it. I'm gonna have just a oh handle on the passenger side and gauges in front of me. might even see about moving the steering and brake booster away from frame about 3". no room to even take my sb valve covers off let alone when my bb gets back in the saddle.

well only managed to get my steering box hooked back up then i had to check out some boggers. tomorow i mght have 2 new boggers and zoomie big block headers for it! now the bigblock's gotta get rebuilt sooner!

[Bryank]

Rubber shovels yeah!

[betterbeaters]

nice tires!!

[Bryank]

nice tires!!

thanks, i had to only $400 new with 1 brand new rim need other rim  but that's a steal!

[Bryank]

haven't done much lately but i did get a newer lighter brake booster,  and the right flywheel for the 413 and got a new shock to replace the one i bent at the end of last year. Only actual work i did was gutted the dash completely,but i still gotta cut some of the frame of the dash out. then it'll be only steering wheel and brakes

Nice lookin truck! 

[Bryank]

Nice lookin truck! 

thanks
Update- dash frame is cut out, tranny is bolted back up. next is finding the home for the divorced 205 and modifying driveshafts from the longbox. I made a to do list and i gotta get going on the old beast. I am working on getting my 350 rebuilt at the machine shop that should be sweet it's gonna be a 500 horse running on premium gas. Hopefully it gets done this summer but damn hp aint cheap! just the bottom end is 3000 and the tops gonna be another 2000 so don't know whether it'll be done this year or not. heres the list of to do's.
new brake lines and fuel lines
getting a steering stabilizer hooked up for the crossover steering
box in the motor
get radiator mounted in the back and run the piping
make bumpers front and back
maybe exhaust
dana 60 needs seals,lower balljoints,and the new lockouts installed
redo any bad sheet metal,get a good sprayer setup for the windshield wiper

[Bryank]

Also gotta make a spare tire mount
i also gotta get lights mounted up and front end of tilt front clip needs diamond plate covering it
still gotta make new dash with just gauges and oh bar on passenger side
id like to make a roll bar in the back and build a roll cage in the cab
possibly paint it
change the govenor in tranny so it dont shift at 5000 rpm
shave the 14bolt and possibly disc brake conversion
and put my marine alternator on it
also the msd needs hooked up along with tach and high torque starter.
Damn and springs almost here! time to get  moving!
