Project: Addiction
Through the years I have bought many old cars and trucks... My problem is after I finish building them I lose interest and sell them so I can build something different....this hobby is definitely an addiction. I know most of you here share this addiction.... Which i was I have properly named this project, haha. Here are some pics.....
First Pic is the bottom of the cab with truck bedliner on it.... Second and third are the etch primer.... Fourth pic is the factory tank set up for fuel injection.... Last edited by keanevann; 12-08-2010 at 10:31 PM. Reason: adding pic description |

Re: Project: Addiction
These are kinda the before pics.... I bought another shortbed frame and a cab from my buddy who has a junkyard of 67-72 trucks and blazers (I'll post pics of that later). Im building them up and then swapping everything from my current truck to the new frame and cab.... while trying to restore everything in the process
Here is a pic of the donor truck currently.....

Re: Project: Addiction
Yeah it will look close to the same..... The reason for the new cab and such is because I bought it then noticed the floor is kinked cause it was t-boned sometime in its life whick puts a lot of the gaps off.... Also the so called "rust free Nevada body" is not even close to rust free...
