Rustyboots
 

Its about time to start a thread and show what were working on and how were going to do it. I purchased a 1970 Chevrolet short bed from Craigslist for $1200.00. 1 hour of travel/load time and $30.00 in quarters at the local car wash and this is what we got parked at the shop. Here is a hint at the direction of the build Pro-Touring. I can't wait for the tear down those pictures are next.

The body work is first on the list (PATINA) could be hiding anywhere.

Looks like a great project, especially for $1200 ! That is one huge air conditioner. Nice shop too.

PRO-TOURING
The plan is to make it to the Fort Worth GoodGuys show March 2013. Still trying to figure out the details. Getting the body straight and everything shaved first. I picked the rims already so were going to build to complement them. 22" all around and here they are
