Thanks 71 :wink:

I am going to have the hub caps on the trailer re-chromed. They are originals and have the name Excel stamped in them. I'm going to add a set of beauty rings too. :thup:

I think the best mod I've done to my '67 is Aussie heads, new timing chain, and cams on my 400. You can't BELIEVE how much diff that made. The rest of the truck is pretty straight, so not much to do there, unless someone wants to donate a new bench seat. :wink:

Next will be changing my FMX over to a C6.

Mine for sure is the front disk breaks, the mustang gas tank, the flipped front leafspring support, the bamboo wood bed floor, all the A/C stuff, Hi-pro heads with the big 428 valves, and hi lift springs, the Holley 770 Street Avenger carb, the Holley chrome fuel pump, 270H Isky cam with a 542 lift, Edelbrock RPM intake, thick flange Headman ceramic coated headers, new Comp lifters, LeMans polished valve covers, all stainless bolts for the truck, and stainless allen head bolts for the 390, all new rubber seals from LMC, I almost forgot a functional 1969 mustang hood scoop, and changing from the narrow trim to the nice fat trim, plus much more that I left out. My father has the frame at his shop, I have the cab here at house, the engine is at the machine shop, and the rest is at the paint shop. It's taken me a few years to get and do all of this and I will be posting the pics of my truck like in 2-3 more months so you all can see what I wanted since I was 13 years old I'm now 36, and I own a cake shop in Mission Tx. God is good!!! :wink:
