hey all here is a picture of what my 5.3 is going into. I have it more complete now with trim and all but no pictures with me. I need to get the motor installed and drive it!
I will need to get more.

 

Nice 68 man. Im a big fan of the 67-72 SWB Chevys!!! That will be a first man a 68 with the LM7 motor. Where did you get the 5.3 from? Any mods to the motor?

 

nice man, ive always wanted a gmc jimmy from that era. just somethin about those trucks that gets to ya

 

Truck looks good!

I have a '66 Chevy Truck that I am considering putting in a 5.3L also. How hard is the swap?

 

Nice appears to have a clean body... there getting harder to come by

 

OH MAN! I love 67-72 chevys! I had a 71 years ago

 

That is gonna be awesome man!

 

looks like a 69-72 corner cutter

are you going with or without chrome

great thing about these trucks is the availability of parts

Hell you can about build the complete truck with the parts thats available

keep us up to date on the swap

 

Cool project We are currently doing something similar with our 70 stepside.

 

very nice.. i love that era of trucks as well... gm should make the new SS silvy's with a retro look kinda like that ... but that will never happen im afraid

How much does it weigh that year from the factory? Heavier than late models, right?
