Hello to all you guys & gals. My name is Kevin. This is my 70 LB that my dad ordered through the dealer in late 69. It was handed down to me in 1990 when I was 15 after sitting in our barn for 6 years. It was in pretty rough shape but I was just happy to have a rig to drive back then. He told me I could have it if I got it running & driveable so I learned a lot through trial & error & with a little help from my dad now & then. We lowered it in the summer of 91, than we started a body off resto on it doing the engine compartment, engine & trans in the spring/summer of 92. From the winter to summer of 93 we did all the body work & had our painter/family friend prime it in my dad's shop. After 2 months of block sanding we hauled it to our friends shop to have him shoot the color on it. It's been this way ever since:
