Customer Restoration Job almost done (long thread)

[rickspickuppart]

This 71 that we started doing some time back for a customer, that strated out life as a fram and a cab w/ doors (some of you out there have seen it as it has been going on) and it is almost ready to leave.

The truck is built almost entirly of repro parts (fenders, grill, bedsides, tail gate, headboard, trim, dash cluster, vent windows, bumpers and all of little stuff). It started out as a non-a/c truck that we put in an "Old Air" clean firewall unit and cut the dash and modified the controller to appear factory.

Here is a list of Mods to the truck:

early 454 w/ 92 serpentine drive
aftermarket A/C
power windows
power door locks
front disk brakes (chrome)
rear disk brakes (chrome)
th400
3" & 5" spring drop
all chassis and underside media blasted and painted
72 gas pedal
tilt
bumper gaurds
rear mounted fuel tank
added cargo light and switch
HEI
and alot of other little stuff

After it leaves here he is going to take it and have the seats re-done in leather (same color as the dash pad), have the door panels made (and also wraped in leather) and hopefully put on a different air cleaner. He has a KILLER set of 20" wheels and if he has us put them on I will definetly get some pics.
