thank you! the body is going to stay pretty much the same. all the chrome trim, a GM color called red jewel, and eventually coy 20's all around. keeping it simple and as original as i can on the outside.

lots of work man. i want her to be just like new but better and more comfortable (low buckets, o/d trans. ect). fixing all the half @ssed "fixes" that a family owned truck goes through after 30 years w/ a 10 year old working on her! LOL its kinda funny some of the stuff i did to this truck and my dad and grandpa just watching. kicked myself in the butt more than once these last couple years.
