What do you do when you are board Christmas evening and have access to high speed internet? Download pictures of course. I created a photo album of my trucks on photobucket. My album can be viewed at: http://photobucket.com/albums/v456/chevy71super/ The pictures are of my 1971 when it went through restoration, my 72 Super which will eventually go through restoration and my 72 Cheyenne which I don't know what I want to do with.

Striker169 · 12-26-2005, 01:57 AM

jay-dawg · 12-26-2005, 04:43 AM

Nice work on the floor pans and kick panels. Any advice on doing that? Did you also replace the front floor support?

TIA,
Jay

WOW!!! You could write a book on how to restore a Chevy P/U. I wish I had used a digital camera when I started mine years ago. I could not believe the reference pics in that photo album there. You have probably answered thousands of questions for many, many guys & gals doing the same thing.
I see you painted it in stages. Can you give us a brief description on what areas you painted first and did you use BC/CC on the interior/firewall, etc.
Great job and a nice looking ride!

Awesum, Spectacular Photo Album, Great Pics!!! I'd say with the 72 Cheyenne (that you don't know what to do with) with the holes in the frame that it had Tow Hooks at some point in it's life...
