Looks good. I once had a '67 7500. Came with a Toro-Flow Diesel and they changed it to a 6V-53 Detroit before I bought it.

You have an interesting truck. Never seen a 7500 with Hydraulic Brakes before.

The 401 sounds great. I've had the smallest (305) and the largest (478), but never anything in-between. Also used to drive a 9500 with a 637 V-8 Gas.

Keep us posted on your progress.

Finally got the dash all wired up new steering wheel and insulation laid down in floorboard. Made my dash bezel to match the door panels and strip on glovebox. Had to redo latches on battery box door. She's coming along nicely.

Really making headway. Going through replacing all the wheel cylinders, all brake lines have been replaced. Cut the frame and shortened her up. Picking up my driveshaft in the morning. Lots of small odds and ends to tie up but my vision I have had in my head is really coming through now.

Brakes are finally done front and rear working like a charm. Got old girl on the road the other day she drove great shifted good. Project is really coming along nicely. Should be ready for paint this week or next. Been a nightmare at times but also has been my favorite build of all. Dad and myself have done most of the work with help here and there from my son in law and father in law. Really great memories have been made.

Got a lot done today getting the bed sat on and finally got all the extra crap cut off the front end to mount the bumper. Love days like this when it all falls into place.
