Getting a 70 chevy
Well guys I finally have one. Tomorrow after school I am going tpo pick up my new truck. It's a 1970 half ton 6 lug long bed chevy. It has a 350 and an auto. The guy bought it 17 years ago and drove it to and from work everday. It runs and drives great. It has after market air but the part under the dahs was falling apart so he took it out. But still has the condensor, and compressor in it. I can't wait to get it. I have so many idead of what to do to it. And I will post many pictures once I get it home.

Got the pictures today. They guy through in a straight, perfect, gmc hood and a straight crome bumper in with it. Been cleaning it up, took out the crappy radie and speakers and all those wires that never went any place or broke over the years and were jsut cluttering it up. And I put the new bumper on and need to polish it all up. Well let me know what you think.

The ac is aftermarket. But the part under the dahs was busted so the previous owner tore it out. I plan to get some nice eagle rims, 235/75 for the front and something alittle meatier in the back. Thinking of painting it red, with a black interior. Going to do some work to the engine, an rv cam, msd ignition, hei distributer, holley truck avender 650 carb, full lenght headers and dual exhaust, and an edelbrock intake. Shift kit and some other little things. But for the most part I plan to fix the little things, get dual exhaust, then start on some body work.
