A few pics of my dad's 70' almost done
I want thank Longhorn Man, Teeitup, Pickupman, Pickmup, WES, GMC Paul, Iron Horse, 67sss, Tx Gary, Junkyard John, Church and everyone else I forgot to mention who have sold me parts along the way to put this truck together. I still have to make the door panels and do some minor odds and ends but at least it's cruise ready. My dad has already gotten alot of thumbs up driving around. The truck sounds great rumbling down the road with the new 2 1/2" exhaust.

Thanks guys!. I have no interior shots yet because it's not done but will post pics in a week or two. The color was mixed wrong but wasn't noticed until the very last minute. It's a litle lighter than it was supposed to be but my dad is starting to like it. The engine mods will take place this summer!

Awesome looking truck!
A Reservist here has a '68 lwb here that is similar in color except its in the usual condition for a unrestored one but better than most I've seen.

I wish mine looked that good, but then again I wouldn't have been able to afford it.
