Nice!
If that's a Fram filter I see..... you'd better
change it to a Wix or NAPA Gold.

or Purolator. Definitely dont run that. You may as well fix the box it came in to the motor.

Hey jwing, what color was the gold trucks factory seat? I 'm painting mine gold and not 100% sure what to do for seat color. Your truck looks great, keep it up.

Re: jwing 68's beloved W-300's
Not sure slick, that gold cab had a newer blue velour seat hobbled into it when I got it. Your 68 restoration is looking mighty fine that color looks great is it close to the original ?

Re: jwing 68's beloved W-300's
Duals went on today and first time into fifth gear, nobody was passing me on the highway tonight ! I was impressed how well it handled cruising at 70 mph

Re: jwing 68's beloved W-300's
Nice. The color on my truck is close to the original interior of my truck. It's an mid 60's chrysler color. Not sure if it ever came on the exterior of the trucks.

Your truck is looking great! I'm happy that the Getrag swap worked out for you. It should be nice with the 4.88s.

Re: jwing 68's beloved W-300's
Thanks Doug for your innovation and inspiration, it's unlikely that I would have come up with this conversion on my own. It works really nice with the 4:88's now I'm thinking about more cubes in front of the Getrag since the 318 is a little short on torque when I add the travel trailer or a loaded car hauler.digdoug wrote:Your truck is looking great!
