hey man i saw your ride in rebel rods, good stuff. how long you has this thing?

I traded for it late summer 2007. It was driveable but, greasy old 350 eng., nothing inside but a front seat, no gauges (fuel ?). The old body was good enough to patch a few places and primer, ect. but even at that stage it got peoples attention. So once I got a theme Hillbilly Surf Shop, I had so many ideas to mix Hillbilly and Surf together, and still got a bunch . It has been so much fun. Thank for the compliment ! How is yours coming along ?

its comin, i still want to convert it back to a gmc but it seems like everyone wants a lot for nothing for the fender i need, and im not willing to pay retail price for a used one that id have to work on. i think ill just wait and drive her around til i find the fender i need. a few leaks here and there that i have to tweak but i just changed out the starter the other night and shes ready for billetproof
 
show us that cool hillbilly nitrous setup u got in that thar trunk.... lol. dp1

Here you go dp1 !! One thing I have been adding to the trunk lately is old ID tags or serial number plates. Do'nt have current pics yet.

Which fender do you need ? I have a few friends in Fla.I can ask so it would be close for you.

I always wanted to get an old four door and make a moonshine runner replica...complete with wooden crates and mason jars where the back seat used to be. You could have some coiled up copper line in the trunk and maybe even some old yeast sacks for added flavor!!
You could primer it flat black and maybe put sand bags in the trunk to lower it some, other possibilites...flipping license plate, oil dump under back bumper, (or nails) maybe even add some bullet holes from running from the g-men!!!...LOL

Sounds like you have a theme going in your head ! That's what happened to me, I got started and still have'nt stopped. Alot of people tell me that they like my hillbilly rat because I do have some kind of theme going on. I am having trouble right now finding some burlap or feed type sacks. Want some with some branding or writing on them. Anyone have any ????
 
Here are a few i found on ebay for ya, pretty cheap for the quantity that you get. Many more on there as well. Enjoy. :D


Thanks for the info ! After asking about them, I went to ebay, and you are right there are several on there. See a few maybe interested in. Thanks again !

Here is a new pic of my serial plates in the trunk. Have not decided to just fill that one area with them, or keep adding them to the rest of the trunk ?

I have 10 or so old burlap bags. Also I have a friend who is a coffee roaster.He gets a lot
 
not a problem at all. Did you buy 3 bundles, or just 3 bags? Which ones did ya get?

All 3 were from the same seller, with no bids. I bid the opening bid on each one and won all 3, seller combined shipping. Came out pretty good. Did not know for sure the measurements on them other than 100lb sacks. Some of the bean ones are 100lbs, but are not as large as some grain ones. Difference of weight.
