This is a cool build man. Looks like the bed is gonna be real nice! Is the bed gonna cover the tires?

Also I ground some bondo spots. I'll take some pictures. There's some super deep bondo spots

Alright guys, I got started with the big dent. Still needs a little work on that one. I got in a bike accident and tore my rotary cuff muscles after that. I'm finally able to use my arm, so I'm gonna start on the body again finally. http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg570/cornhole4242/The%20Beast-...

Looking real good. Just a few questions. What did the engine come out of? Did you buy or make the engine mount setup? Do you still have the old 292? Thanks, J Thanks. The engine originally came out of a 70 something Lincoln. Derek (63bigwindow) put the engine mounts and trans crossmember on there. ...

thanks man. Not sure what kind of headers they are. The engine came out of a dirt track car then to another truck and then to me. Got the engine from 63bigwindow up there ^

Thanks guys. About to start on the body finally. Sorry to all who liked the turquoise but it's gonna be gone. Haven't done body work before, so it'll be a long process lol

Truck looks familiar Bailey, saw alot of that one in my shop, looking real good now..keep up the progress, and keep your dad from working on it so he does'nt make more problems for you :lol: ,,bring it by sometime so we can get that burn out done!! Derek lol we'll get it done. It'll burn the tires ...

This truck is gonna be a beast man. Hope you can get some time in to work on the truck and post pictures of the progress!

Just wanted to post up some pictures of these speaker boxes we made to put under the seat. Also of when we put new king pins in. http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg570/cornhole4242/The%20Beast-%2061%20unibody/a373c6353ffa12ca770a6305d9e893ce.jpg http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg570/cornhole4...

Pretty sure the verticles behind the F O R D in the grill was black I contemplated painting the letter backing parts black, but when I did it after first getting the truck, I didn't like the way it looked. To my eye it made the letters more difficult to read and didn't look as classy. I could alway...

Hold up... This truck is for sale?? And for 5 grand??

Looks great man! Nice work. After seeing this I wish I would've gone the frame off route. It would've made things a lot easier

Back to the interior. I painted a lot of the accents satin black. http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg570/cornhole4242/The%20Beast-%2061%20unibody/6df5a29bca7e4c4685872515645343e1.jpg http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg570/cornhole4242/The%20Beast-%2061%20unibody/93d7c4473a7711a5ef981821f9a96a0...

Thank ya

Lowered the back end about 3 1/2 inches. Not really sure how much because I forgot the initial measurement lol. Anyways we took out 3 leafs on each side and my grandad lengthened the shackles as far as they would go before they hit the bed. Also painted the wheel wells with some bed liner. http://i1...

Very nice, great headliner and great looking bench seat. I really like the frame color choice too. Most everyone goes black on the frame. Nice truck!

have at man, that's why I posted them. key is taping off the letters then sanding down the chrome till the shine is off, I did it till the shine was dulled as I didn't want to keep sanding! then blow them clean (cant really wash it clean since the tape is on there), then a couple coats of etching a...

yep, that's right were mine is shot. the mount to cab was ok, but the section on the cab wall that the mount is welded too is blown out. http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg570/cornhole4242/The%20Beast-%2061%20unibody/d7c655c10fb9e3cb6d01585ea2bcccf7.jpg Someone told me the mounts are sold somewh...

Now to the front end. When we began putting the front body back on it didn't line up right. After messing with it for hours, we figured out the cab mounts were rusted and had collapsed a little. So we cut all the rust out and put some rust reformer over the hard to get places. Made a new mounting su...

Here's when we got the engine running but we were still having problems with the tranny. I took off the trans pan and found the gear selector some how slipped off the valve switcher thinggy lol. Don't know what it's called but it was stuck in low gear. http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg570/cornh...
