Re: 1964 ratrod heres the story

i picked the truck apart piece by piece. and man was it nasty. so i sandblasted the frame, primed and painted it. replaced all the shocks and new bushings.. by the way that was the 283 i was going to use. until i got my other motor back from the machine shop. the whole front end came off in one piece.. and the fenders and stuff would NOT come off. apparently the PO welded all of it together and put tar everywhere inside it. so i left it together, and will leave it until i can afford new fenders, inners, radiator support, and front valence, or whatever its called i just sanded it down and painted it i didnt want to put any time into it if im just going to replace it in a few months.

The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
