[CrackerTeg]

This makes me happy. Love these old trucks.

[aLaFleur]

Oh yes! My favorite body chevy truck by far. Can't wait to see you knock this thing out.

[Withers]

[Oxer]

[Belvader]

[Miroteknik]

That burnout!

[csermonet47]

Ran out and took some real pictures to serve as a good before and after reference.



Can see the only big dent here. Was told a tractor backed into it











Nice and straight










Foot vents let air in and make not having A/C bearable. I would like to add it at some point though.



Original manual and warranty booklet:



Here are some more of the OG paint that is going to be coming back:





Pretty much the only rust on the whole thing. Moisture got caught in the seam sealer and rusted it out a little.





And here she is home safe and sound 8)





And so it begins. Gonna try some other stripper stuff tomorrow and see if I can't get some more paint off. Might be a few days before I can get the right stuff though.

And a burnout before the tear down (it works if you right click then open in new tab):

Very much looking forward to this build. It's amazing how long it takes to clean up a garage sometimes, lol.
