Re: Restore family 65-street rod

The body shop owner scoped out my truck the week before job, and gave me rundown. He said my truck was the most rust-free 60s car he had ever seen. That would help. I would need to remove old bed and take truck and bed down to metal myself. He told me what air sander to buy, and grit paper to use. also the abrasive pad to grind off other areas. Next step was to get old bed off my truck, and strip glass, grill, bumpers and trim. THen I must get down to him, before he opened monday. I had all weekend to prep.

Son in photo is my oldest, he helped alot, as did my other sons.
