It’s high time I posted an example of progress made on the `67 D-100.  Theoretically, no progress has been made other than cleaning out the bed and moving the truck into the corner.  At least it is protected from the elements and has the company of a 5.7L Hemi!

For the first time in a long time, the pickup bed has been cleaned out and isn’t carrying a bunch of spare parts.  I also pulled the truck box off so I could use it on the `93 D-250 Cummins Truck.  Now, the truck box will have to move again, over to the `92 Dually Crew!

Unfortunately I don’t have a safer spot for the dash considering the `92 Dually project currently in progress, so…… on the roof it sits!

5may09_2Goal is to get this thing ready for Hot August Nights (http://www.hotaugustnights.net) someday.  Of course, I’m planning a Frame off restoration for this sucker.  Once time permits, of course.

If anyone needs proof that an old A-Series or LA-Series Small Block Bellhousing bolts up to the new 5.7L or 6.1L Hemi, there's your proof! A `67 Cast Iron bellhousing for the NP 435, bolted to a 2003 5.7L Hemi.
