I told the body guy today this was like a dream. Told him if you asked me 2 years ago if my truck would ever be stripped down and getting painted like this, I would have said you were crazy. Never thought that would be me, and here she is. When I started the 454 swap, Barn9 and Blazerboy helped pull the front clip and 307 out of this. They immediately pointed out some rust areas and said I should fix that while the clip was off. I told them, I could see fixing the two areas in question, but no way was I going to do more. They both smiled and said now's the time, I said, no way. They got a real kick out of me and said I would change my mind - hmmm, guess they were right!
