Builds My first LV (1 Viewer)

Do yourself a favor and skip the nostalgia on the ball and claw axle with drums.

Holy hell what a nightmare. I was so deep in parts I could not stop but I’ll never do another one.

Yea most of my 45’s have had the engines or transmissions changed at one point already so going to being putting new axles with disc brakes on the front and a rear disc brake kit for the back. I like keeping most things original but I want to upgrade the axles and some other parts so the truck is more reliable and easy to work on

I think the first step is to rid that thing of Black Widow spiders, then we can talk about axles.

Haha yea it’s a interesting truck. The scout hard top is just resting on the bed to stay off the ground it doesn’t go with the truck

Someone was very creative in frankensteining an LV into an extended cab pickup/ El Camino?

Congrats Matt.
