Re: BlueJ
Love this build man, every time I look at it I want to strip my truck down and make it as clean as this one.....

I just revived a thread about building an old truck vs buying new, Do you think you can rebuild a truck as clean as you do using stockish parts for less than the cost of a brand new chevy?

Re: BlueJ
This truck will look familiar to most, yes it is OJ out on a recent event on New years day, think it was the only square body for the day, since purchasing off Yezzi I've done a few things such as 'C' notch, stiffened rear springs (for towing) hidden hitch, trans cooler, she gets her fair share of comments and all good, no other plans just yet, just cruise.

Cheers Mick.

Holy smokes, this is getting out of hand. Where on earth do you find these trucks? That's going to look perfect with the wheels and bumpers painted and dropped.

Re: BlueJ
Does the front passenger's side fender (cup) have rust in it? Notice it looks primered.
