the infamous Rich 'the painter' made it by the house last night to check things out and get a game plan going. He's going to pick up the doors, hinges, and A/C box monday after work and get them knocked out:D He's going to take the bed next to undercoat and paint and while he's got the bed i'm going to get the exhaust done:metal: i need to get into DMV and get everything all in order so i can drive her somewhat legal to the exhaust shop also

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
 

Glad I stopped to check it out. I miss watching this build. I gotta remember to drop in more often. The exhaust shop going to run pipe without the bed on it? I would wait till it is on there and the truck is sitting at ride height to run exhaust. Then you are sure about clearances.

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
