Thought I better get around to posting a few pics while it still looks decent...have a full summer of hard wheelin' planned!
Bought this 73 a while back, was mostly original and very rough. I had plans for a very mild daily driver on 31's...well you all know how that goes! I have done everything from bodywork/paint, suspension mods,axles,roll cage,bumpers, etc in my 2 car garage.
It all started with a spring over/reversal with rancho springs,home fabbed shackles,pro comp long travel shocks 9/16" u bolts thru 3/4" plates, fresh d44's with ausie lockers,4.56 gears,ballastic covers, disc brakes all around.front is a narrowed/cut n turned Chevy with Scout chromo axles. Home fabbed beadlocks, 37" pitbull rocker radials,psc hydro asist,high steer/cross over. The cage is 1 3/4" dom tied to frame/bumpers/rock sliders. The hard top still fits, but doubt it will be used much. Inside the cage is a set of corbeau seats and belts. The original 345 is still ticking away...did convert to elect. Distributor, new Holley two barrel, 100 amp alternator and optima battery. I would like to do a complete powertrain rebuild this winter along with injection or propane/dual fuel. Auto trans is alittle weak, and the t-case is making some strange noise so its just a matter of time!
