Re: NoBiggies 67' Econo
Been awhile....here's the latest progress. Got all the leaf springs done, shocks, axle, everything underneath. Added a paint job and graphics last weekend (a garage project), new wheels and tires today. 15 x 8's rear, 15 x 7 front. Next up, chrome side pipes.
List of need to do's:
Needs new radiator. Looks like the original and has an electric fan on the front of it, but man it runs hot. Gonna upgrade to a 4 core with a 3000 cfm minimum fan.
Transmission won't stay in park. It's an automatic. I have ordered the shift cable and column upgrade from Vic. Hopefully I will be able to adjust it better with the cable. Right now, it's loose. Slides in and out of gear too easy. The shift linkage off the steering wheel hits the front grill and even pokes through a bit.

No Biggie, Man that looks awesome! Looks great with all your personal touches. I'm loving the stripe accents on top and all along the bottom! That's gotta be a great feeling to finally see some major progress and making it Yours! From what I've read on these threads, Vic's the guy to help make things right. Congrats!!!!!!!

Re: NoBiggies 67' Econo
I sold it for $9500...had a ton more in it. Then found out after I moved I would have had a garage for it. SH%#T!!
I sold it to a classic car dealer in Texas, they sold it for 11 or 12,500 to LowBrow Customs in Ohio. They immediately stripped the paint off and are in the process of repainting it I guess. It has been 6 months since I have seen it.
Now I'm looking for a nice Econo pickup. Custom, automatic, etc. Don't have time for a big project. There are a few for sale around, just nothing that catches my eye yet.

Re: NoBiggies 67' Econo
Man that is a steal for $9,500 and even at $12,500 if you ask me. Good luck in your quest and love all your posts on Instagram by the way. I am looking to have about almost 20k into mine when all said and done, but I know all the work being done and being done write and I get to choose all the finish materials and colors.
