46 pickemup in NJ "the Rebuild"

[paintman]

So as I was saying.......I drove the truck around for about 2 or 3 months and on each occasion I noticed or felt a few things that just didn't suit me or down right scared me (no sense in going into detail but lets just say ...nah never mind). LOL.
So a little more detail about the truck. The guy I bought the truck off of is not the original builder. The truck had a 350/350 tranny combo when I bought it. Unfortunately the motor had as much oil spewing from it as Saudi Arabia because the previous owners did not believe in a PCV valve. They were both WAAAAY to old school. The other issue the truck had was a worn out AMC Pacer front end in it. So I new up front the truck had some issues.
so fast forward to November of 2011. this is when I decide to take the ole girl off the road and begin what I thought would be a 1-3 year make over.

Time to put her away for awhile and give her a face lift
