My 60 Chevy Shop truck build

I just bought a 60 Chevy short /narrow Pick up. It is a little rough. I Know I have a 59 Fleetside build thread in the 47-59 board. But since that is more of a high dollar build, I kind of put it on the back burners. This truck(the 60), is running a Mr Goodwrench Vortek engine with a Holly 600. Saginaw 4speed, and the original rear (super low geared, have to change). Here is what it looked like when I first got it.


The first thing I did was replace the newer hood with the proper 1960 hood.


As you can see in the second picture I already welded the rust on the doors and fenders.

next it was the rockers and floor boards. these had to be replaced with new parts.





I got one rocker installed, will update as I continue.
