Rustyboots
Its about time to start a thread and show what were working on and how were going to do it. I purchased a 1970 Chevrolet short bed from Craigslist for $1200.00. 1 hour of travel/load time and $30.00 in quarters at the local car wash and this is what we got parked at the shop. Here is a hint at the direction of the build Pro-Touring. I can't wait for the tear down those pictures are next.

Re: Rustyboots
Looks like a great project, especially for $1200 ! That is one huge air conditioner. Nice shop too.

The plan is to make it to the Fort Worth GoodGuys show March 2013. Still trying to figure out the details. Getting the body straight and everything shaved first. I picked the rims already so were going to build to complement them. 22" all around and here they are Rushforth Wheels "OVERKILL"
