Looks like you got a little bit of toe-in up front

i noticed that too

why didnt you want the long bed? long cars look lower.. what do I know anyway. still a nice build

short bed

Love every moment of this build... Keep it up

Glad to see you went short bed. This is my favorite chevy body style ever. Sick build man, keep it up.

Thanks for the compliments!!! I knew I wanted a short bed but after 2 years I only found long beds. I actually ordered a BBW (Big Back Window you perv's) and we are going to cut out the old small window and weld in the new big window frame and glass.

Short bed fleetside big back window 64-66 trucks are so rare that most people make them instead of trying to find one. 60-63 have different suspensions and curved windshields making them more expensive to restore.

Picked up some higher quality body work materials from a body shop supply store
Fvck Bondo, Rage Gold Extreme (under non retail name Smart)


Sanded down all my work and redid it.




















The whole truck is being stripped to bare metal and dents filled, etching primer, high build primer, guide coated and blocked then painted a 2 stage flat black. It is taking forever to do. I should have soda blasted,but I knew stripping by hand would have no chemical reactions to the paint.

Going out Friday to do more body work, hopefully we can put the bed on and start working on the front fender tubs. Will post pics Friday.

Moar Moar Moar Sanding Stripping and body work. Mocked up fenders and had to due some trimming. Rear tires will be flush with rear rolled fenders but up front I already cut 1" from the fender. Any more and the hood wont cover it. Here are a few more pics. Stripping the whole truck to bare metal sucks!!!!



















Wiring, reinstalling the drive train, and replacing rusted panels will be next. I pray 6 weeks and it will be done
