New Member, 1gearhead
Just registered on the forum board. Been doing this car/truck thing longer than I can remember. Have my own shop in Whittier Ca. Do a lot of 50's and 60's cars and truck as well as muscle cars. Currently have three customer project trucks in house, 1961 GMC Panel that is an original ambulance. This is a resto rod I guess, restored stock exterior, dropped, 4-wheel discs, Mini Tub, 9" Ford rear, Blown 502" with TH400, and more. Second customer truck is a 1963 Long bed with 350 crate motor and th350, convert to disc brakes, PS, and 5-lug. Third customer truck is 1970 El Camino that is getting the full prostreet treatment with 572", TH400 and 9" Ford Rear and More. My own personal truck project is a 1964 Longbed that is getting 350, BW 4-speed and complete refinish inside and out. So yes, I am into trucks. If I can figure out how I would like to post pics of a 1963 shortbed that we just recently finished. Has 500+ HP 468" BBC, TH400, Mini Tub and 9" Ford rear.
