Re: My first classic - 69 SWB
Welcome to you from east AR. I own a body shop and hang out here and the paint and body section and visit the 88-98 and 99-07 sections sometimes too cause that is what I build from wrecks. I that would help you on any project just holler at me and I'd be glad to help you. Jim

Re: My first classic - 69 SWB
Thanks, shes got more personality than most people haha
Any opinions or issues anyone thinks ill run into installing the bed as-is?...PO was laying rockers on the ground so the bed floor is pretty cut up and there is square tubing for what im guessing would be the base of a raised floor? Thanks |
