Re: LS1 into a 73 cheyenne

Still working on the rust repair so far I've shaved the coners on the bed and left gas tank. The technique I use in order to prevent warping is to blow air after each tack, and when grinding the welds I go with a ruff grit like a 60 or so to chew the weld faster and not create so much heat. So I desided not to run AC & heater or wipers I will fabricate a sheet and place over the fire wall in order to get the smooth look without going crazy with the filler and relocate the wires to hide them. I will also fill in the inner fenders and the radiator core support.
