A teenage budget and Dads time (80 Chevy shorty)

Going to start a new project with my son. He has always had an interest in cars so I thought we would build one together. Found a truck that had been stuck in the ninetys but had already had lots of good stuff done. Our plan is to make it look a little more original but keep the lowered stance. So far we have been gathering lots of parts. This will not be a show truck but will look pretty cool for 16 year old to cruise around in this summer. I personally have passed on a lot of these trucks in the past but they have really grown on me lately especially the 73 to 80’s. The great part about these trucks is you can still find lots of reasonable priced parts so it should work with the teenage budget.
