Yet another '72 short bed build....

I'm waiting for the National Lampoon quotes and jokes. I would have driven that wagon all over hell and creation.

You all would be about 11 years too late! They've all been said. https://ls1tech.com/forums/conversio...you-drive.html

Well, it's been a while since I updated this, so let me see where I left off. After replacing the one destroyed wheel bearing and packing them all with grease, I was able to move it out into the street to be able to use the garage to work on the wagon a bit. It needs wheels and a bed in a real bad way!
Made some brackets to mount the 3 point seatbelts.
Mounted in the truck they look like this. Worked out pretty good, the driver's side clears the gas tank with no problems.

Dude, I hope you don't mind people being jealous of you, but I AM! That is one CLEAN truck! Can only improve with the addition of a bed!

Cool. Now I'm curious to see what's rolling around your head. Haha
I tried to use my phone the next day and it was locked up so I restarted it but didn't know how long it was stuck. I didn't realize you hadn't replied until I was busy at work then forgot again when things slowed down.

I see that you made your own AC lines, but I never saw a picture of the fitting(s) you used on the compressor. Can you share how you did that end of the lines and how it looks down my the frame rail?

Just went thru your thread, great project. Getting me all fired up to get started on my 72, just need to finish the 54 first.
Good to see the way your maintaining much of the original equipment and look! Hope you had fun in Texas at the GG event. My buddy and I are going on the Hall of Fame Tour in September and ending there...
Keep up the good work!
