Shaker's 8K Budget 71' Cheyenne
Hey guys LAST ONE i promise !
Seems like every week its another crazy idear in my head for this truck. Ok, I decided that im going to Restore my First truck for Ag Mechanics. Im planning on it being more then 90% finished by the end of my senior year (2 years away) and ive got an 8 K budget i know its a slim budget but its all i can do. Build plans: Alright i really want to restore this truck back to former glory with a FEW modern touches such as a 6.0 LQ under the hood and modern wiring wheels an brakes. Other then that i want to build a 71' Cheyenne Super . Right now the trucks a Cst But i want to make the change over. Trucks in pretty rough shape right now but i plan on a Quick Progression within the next 3 months (out for summer) So Here we go heres a few pics as the truck sits right now along with its current specs. Truck its a 71' cab on a 69 cst frame has the 71' front suspension an disc brakes . Engines a sbc 350/350 i have a stock 5 lug 12 laying over yander im going to swap from the 71' I Have a ton of original parts for this truck so im going to try and salvage what i can from all of it. Hope yall Like it! ![]() |
