My 1970 Fleetside SWB in TN, April

My childhood dream finally became a reality. I've waited 22 years for this. Thanks to one of my life long best friends, Ron Peck, and his killer team at Jaw Droppin Customs for the awesome find & build in Corpus Christi, TX. Brian Hayes, and the folks at Brian's Motorsports in Hendersonville, TN are responsible for the tire and wheel package and incredible service they always deliver. I highly recommend either of these vendors with the greatest praise.

Specs:
Original A/C Truck
71 Front Clip
Dropped 6 & 7 (C-Notched Rear)
Shaved Markers, Trim, & Mirrors
Blacked out Lenses
All LED Lighting
2014 Chevy Corvette Laguna Blue Tincoat
Foose Impala Polished Wheels (20x8.5, 20x10 Stock Offset)
327 with a mild cam
Polished Vintage Air Front Runner Serpentine System
Hooker Ceramic Coated Headers to Flowmaster 50s
TH400 3 Speed Automatic
Just did a little dress up under the hood. Motor was already built. Maybe a 6.2 later in life

It's meant to be a cruiser for me and my son. Here's a little photo montage of the beginning and the end. The pics don't do her justice. I hope to eventually do a professional photo shoot of her soon. The Hot Rod Black pics are how I purchased her back in November.
