My "New" 67 Project

Post by 67StrayCat »

Here is my new 67 F100 SWB project. Just got her a couple weeks ago. A real solid body. The previous owner pulled the tired 302/C4 combo out and had planned a 460/C6 install but never got around to it. I did not bother withd the old 302 he pulled...it had been juiced with a NOS system and was probably not worth rebuilding.
My plans is to clean her up, go through all the harnesses, switches, etc and making sure she is electically sound (previous owner said the fuel gauge wire was unplugged because it was draining the battery).
As far as an engine/trans combo, I am trying to decide on either a 289 HIPO or a 302 with a C4 transmission.
Will post pics as the project progresses.

Note: First thing that's got to go is the dang Chevy mirrors off this beautiful truck!

Ya'll bear with me. I am new to the site and I promise I will get the hang of posting pics...lol.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention I think it was a well spent $250 for this 67.
