LUV: 1972 Street/Strip Name: Dustin Location: Alta Loma, CA USA Forum Name: Dustin-3243 Notes: I found this 72 luv in the recycler mag for 750 bucks..I went to look at it and it was covered in white house paint, (YES COVERED WINDOWS AND ALL)..with a laddar rack and a utility bed..but I still saw the potential it still had..and also felt bad for the truck..now has a chevy 350 and a turbo 350 trans with a ford 9 inch rearend that I narrowed 14 inches that has disk brakes. I have also fabbed parts to accept 5 lug disk brakes in the front as well. Greg Weld prolite wheels,aluminum radiator,trans cooler and fan.I narrowed the frame 12 inches and built a cage along with an aluminum bed cover and wheel tubs. My goal for this truck was to have a clean street truck that was reliable but yet still be able to have fun on the track with it. For my first LUV project it has been tough finding parts, but it was worth it and beeing a full time fabricator made the build alot easier and cheaper(not as cheap as I thought..you guys know how it goes..where do you stop!)I just recommend to all, do it right the first time and you will have exactly what you want in the long run. Special thanks to my family and friends for the help as well, and for my girlfriend for patience on all those endless nights working on my truck!!
