Judging by the before pic, I would haven't touched that beauty. That is the exact kind of truck that I want to find for my wife. I'm sure it will looks even better once you're done with it. Good luck, and keep us posted!!

I agree with dubie, I wouldn't have touched that one! I hope my '71 turns out half as good as that one looked! Next time you want to do a frame off, let me know and I'll bring the old yellow beast out, since it definitely needs it!

It was nice but it had lots of hidden problems. I also am adding Disk brakes, 3/4 drop, 700R4, cowl hood 17", and a color change. I have had this truck since I was 16. I sold my 67 mustang for her before I could drive it. My wife also thinks I am nuts for doing this to her. But It will be %110 when done and be all mine.

I believe if I would have done that. My wife would have me sleeping out in the shop with it. You got some big cahonnas. Can't wait to see it put back together.

Should be sweet when it's done, I don't think I would have touched it either though.
