1969 Chevy CST/10 comes home [Long-term project "OrangeCrush"]

[texanidiot25]

Thanks so much. I grew up in the garage, my dad had a 76 Camaro (12 seconds easily on street tires pump gas 396 BBC) a 51 Chevy (his grandmothers, willl be restored some day) and a 78 El Camino (I came home in it when I was born, custom blue/white two tone, planned 400hp TPI V8 drop, but some a-hole wrecked into it one winter while it was parked, and totaled it )

Im paying for it all myself, pretty much. So, yeh, road before bling. But the most bling it will get is a new set of rims some day, and when we redo the interior after fixing the windshield's touble spots.

Ill keep this updated with the engine news. THe storage place my dad has all his old garage stuff (we moved from dallas to houston in 2002) has the engine stand we need. And the keys to it are 'misplaced' at the moment
