As promised, I got off my butt and snapped some new pics today and got a photo CD to post these...These pics show new front/rear bumpers
new wheels/tires... and new interior. still have a ways to go. Paint job not perfect but it'll have to do for now...I plan on mothballing ol' Red in a couple of years and really do it right (full frame-off treatment). Hope y'all like it! I plan on going to Good-guys show in Ft. Worth at beginning of Oct. 1st Show ever... Time for me to see what its all about!

Sweet truck and very patriotic of you. Happy Indepence Day. Good choice in drivers.

texascowboy593 · 07-02-2005, 10:03 PM

71 longbed...you can get husky toolboxes at Home Depot...mine was about $220.00
The paint is coming off the lid (bad paint job). other husky boxes ive seen dont have the paint prob....I just got the 1 bad one!

Deuce · 07-02-2005, 10:47 PM

NICE looking truck!! With a nice black interior it would surely be a winner.

**special-K** · 07-03-2005, 07:40 AM

Good looking truck.How long have you had the box?Have you tryed taking to Homo Depot about it?

texascowboy593 · 07-03-2005, 02:12 PM

special-k, Ive had that box for nearly 3yrs... Im just going to strip the lid down and repaint it myself... rest of the box is fine...
deuce, I originally painted the interior a dark gun metal gray but I came upon a good parts truck w/ all that new interior stuff. I figured red/white/blue would do the trick. The wheels/tires and the 350 tranny came from it also. Those were the only salvageable items on it. It had major rust on every body panel. You could actually look THRU the hood and see the engine!!!

70 shorty · 07-03-2005, 03:21 PM

Looks good in the pictures. I like it.

Deuce · 07-03-2005, 07:43 PM

Ahhhhhhh!! Red-White-Blue. Now I get it.................I'm a little sloooooow sometimes!!!
