Sounds great in the clip!
BTW, what happened to your pictures? it says account inactive. I think you need to log in again to your Photobucket account so all those pics come back up!
It's been there forever and doubt it will ever move, but who knows. I might approach the owner with some cash in hand and see what he says. (That being said, what do you think a good price would be for it?)
(And sorry I don't have any better pictures. Maybe sooner or later I'll get back up...
Very cool build so far, HP! Just read through the whole thing.
Looks like you're getting very close! I look forward to these last few updates. After this, it's just "photoshoot" updates... which are cool too... :D
Got the floor boards off and removed the Heat/Air box
Dropped the running boards and gas tank
Pulled the front end off
And there you have it. Right now I'm in the process of brainstorming the front end. I'm lined up to pick up a Chevy C-10 front end so I can have IFS and Discs. For the...

Also started on a little body work. I can't decide/don't know if I should strip the paint down to the metal and start fresh, or if I should just work...
Got some work done on it yesterday fellas!
started stripping it of some 'un-necessities' that would need replacing for starting this motor up anyway (I'm probably gonna at least TRY it. it's a 6vlt system though so parts are scarce.) RockAuto parts seems to have the most replacement/OEM...
Thanks guys! I'm dying to get started on it. Went on NAPA's site last night and wrote down some part #'s for the few things they had that I can use.
-Shocks and brake hoses.
It's a start! :) I can't wait to mess with it this weekend!
Got it today! woohoooo!!
Only damage to the truck is this dent on the right fender and another (smaller) dent on the left fender in just about the mirrored spot. remarkable!
