My daughter just got her first Chevy

My daughter just got her permit and when asked what kind of vehicle she wanted, she told me she wanted a 67-72 short bed 4x4. Now we have always had old trucks and cars, but I never figured she would want one for daily transportation while in high school. I explained to her that what ever we found, she and her brother would have to restore it while she drove it, cause we didn't have the money to buy one already done. She said she always enjoyed helping her brother work on his truck, and she actually looked forward to working on her own and learning more about them. So, after several that were either too expensive or modified, we found this one about a hundred miles from home. It's a 6 cylinder with a granny 4 speed, but it has the most solid steel floor bed I have seen in years. So while other girls are busy going to the mall, she's now making small projects that she can get done each weekend. Here's a few pictures of the starting point.
