67 Project.....

Just picked this up today for 800.00. Seems to be if fair shape. I may have overloaded my wagon though. Me and my 11 and 13 year old sons are gonna attempt it anyway. Goal is a pro street look. Oh well let the work begin. I am sure I will have plenty questions.

Looks like you have some work ahead of you, however, you are starting off with a nice canvas to work with.

Have fun and keep us updated!

Looks like it already has the correct angle, now just need the monster meats in the back and skinny's up front. Not a bad find for $800.

It isnt rusted near as bad as you would think. It has to small 3x3 spots in each floor pan and one small area in the bed. I have a 521 bbf waiting very patiently to go in. I have already located a complete CV. Gonna pull cab and bed this weekend and blast the frame. Truck has factory air and I would like to keep it maybe. It is still charged. Had seriously thought about just making it ratty like but I think I want to go on and fix it. Anyone know off hand how wide of a rear tire will fit without tubs? Thanks for the help!!

Size of tire would depend on wheel offsets.

On my '72 F250, I have 305/50-20 tires

I do not have any wheels so I really am at a good starting point. I am thinking about steel painted wheels. I really was some nice meat in the rear. I can cut the rear end if need be. I just picked up a PI CV complete front end today for 200.00. I want the pro street look mainly. I will be posting pics soon as the work starts.
