I got off work early today and had the urge to go visit the bodyshop today where my 72 Chevy short fleetside truck has been for the last 6 months or so just waiting its turn to be restored. I was pleasantly surprised to see my cab, bed ,fenders ,2 sets of doors ,2 tailgates and the rotten core support in separate areas of the shop. The bed ,doors,tailgates,and fenders were already sandblasted and epoxy primed .The cab was sitting on a dolly awaiting the removal of the windshield and back glass .The rolling frame (glad I didnt sell those 4 van rallys yet) was sitting out back awaiting the motor and trans to be pulled tomorrow and then the frame gets sandblasted. The motor will be taken apart for a new stock 290 HP cam(current one too much for brake vacuum) and new gaskets as it leaked oil everywhere but didnt burn any . I was just up there last week to leave them a Christmas gift of a case of beer and it was pretty much untouched .I cant wait to see the new panels going on the cab ,the rest of the body was pretty good except the core support and the right fender cup .The cab has the normal ares of rust in the rockers ,cab mounts ,and cab corners. I have gathered most all needed parts over the last year from mostly individuals here as well as the many vendors here so thankyou all very much. My cowl hood was about the only local item I bought as AMD is not far from me and I got a great deal thru one of their test fitters/vendors and my Buddybuckets I got for free from a friend that didnt like them .I dont have any pics as I didnt know they had done all this til I got there and I cant post them if I had them.
