79 SWB Father/Son Project

[jones9j]

Well we have had the truck for bout a month now, so i figure its time to go ahead and start our build thread.

First a little background, my father brought me up into classics and street rods as a kid, so when i heard my son tell me that he would like to have a 73-80 square body to fix up, i was thrilled to start looking for one. We searched all over and all over the internet. We looked for over a yr and most all of the ones we found were junk and priced as if they were in great shape. We finally found a 79 bout 2 1/2 hrs from the house. It was a little more then what we wanted to spend, but decided to go ahead and get it, since it was a clean 2 owner.

This is how the truck was the day we brought it home, we have big plans (or I should say dreams) for this truck.
