New "sorta" build
 
After months of stalking this site, I searched and searched for a truck that I could use as a daily driver. I was lucky enough to find one on CL for $700! 64 LWB, SBW, 3 on the tree!!!! It had no brakes but it started and ran, so I snagged it up!!!! This really isn't a build thread as I am a full time student, but it is, and has been my DD for the last month or so!!!:metal:

Since picking it up in October, I have replaced all the brake lines, master cylinder, oil change, new air filter, new wheel bearings......

Is this it? Copy and paste the IMG code from PB, don't use this http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vboa...nsertimage.gif. code should look like this http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...untitled-1.jpg with IMG at each end. It will all be automatic if you copy and paste. Hope it helps.

I removed the rear springs and cut a coil and a half out of the front. This is just temporary. I don plan on a static drop. The plan is to keep her fairly original, or "era correct" with the stance as the exception.

The plan is to go with Satin Black with the roof (window up) gloss black.... and Gloss black flames! What do you guys think?
