Finding a '67 or later door would

I said 68 cause it would have the same interior handles.

No sir, different door latch designs.
You need a 68 and up door.

You do not need any sealant. That tends to make a mess. Also, there is a tool you can get to put the lock strip in. They didn't use sealant from the factory and if the 'metal' is not bent or rusted out, you shouldn't need any sealant. OR... if you want to make sure, have a glass company install it....

Im using the rope method so Im not to keen on how/where to actually apply the sealant.

Does/did anyone use sealant when they installed their new windsheild or just use the gasket itself?
Putting my front and rear glass in soon.

Also, I cant remember if I took my dash out with or without the windsheild in. You can put the dash back in with the windsheild in place, correct?

I would save my money until you get back then do what I call "driving for dogs", it's basically just mindlessly driving around back roads and checking out the crap in people's back yards. In fairly short order you should run across somethi...

Awesome, but why the green

That 500 would make a sweet welding truck

Cummins are the new 350s. Cummins swaps have became rather boring. You get the odd "Creative" person that strokes the 350 to a 383 or puts a 4bt instead of a 6bt cummins.
Want to see If I can stuff a perkins or detroit in my truck when I have the means to do so.

Havnt forgot about you, things have been rather interesting latley.

Ditto
If your going to put stacks on you better put a big "TAPOUT" sticker arcoss your back window and get yourself a flat bill hat to top it off.

I have 2 questions 1963 W300 1) The fastener at the top of the fender closest to the door is missing on my truck. The fender was braised to the cowl. So, what type of nut or fastener goes inside the square hole on the fender? Any pics? 2) At the bottom of the rear section of the fender there are a ...
