Desert Rose

[70RedBlurr]

So thought it would be a good idea to start a build thread and see what kind of feed back I get from everyone in the process, good, bad, ideas, and of course help. Also I like taking pictures and everyone, like me, seems to enjoy viewing pictures of builders progress and rides. So to begin I bought this 70 long bed from a buddy of mine for $2k and not much has changed since it came into my hands. There were a few things wrong with the truck when I got it though, things that only took a screw driver and common sense to fix.
lowered truck and left bump stop in with no shocks
vacuum line disconnected on trans
put in a glove box
connected heater
speedo cable
door panels painted and put on
window and door handles
and other little misc. details
Also Truck has a 350 with 350 trans
Here is the good stuff, Pics!








Going to make subtle changes to the truck and make it my DD, biggest change will be bagging the truck and swapping to a 327 with overdrive trans. I am sure there will be little things to go along and I will post as they happen or an idea comes to me. I don't know what else to write so anything I have left out that you may want to know just ask.
