Bill's truck was my motivation for the Chevelle spring and coil chop, its got one badass stance!!!!

Salazar44- Hey Vic, you think we can get it atleas halfway smooth? I found a straight bed on CL for only $175, should I jump on it of can we just try and smooth this one out....?

So excited about this daym thing that Im up at the crack of dawn to start cleaning it up, theres a huge amount of dust/dirt in the cab and loose trash. Even though the motor is strong, she is in need of a sauna!!! maybe next week Ill take it do a pressure washer and blast off as much gunk as I can, any suggestions on getting the old dirt off the engine? Im more concerned about not frying electrical with water.

Quick history on the truck, I bought it from the original owner!!! He got it when he was 16 and has been driving it ever since. The truck has only gone through 2 trans (both 3 spd) and the 350 replaced the original L6 a few years back. Its a California car and he took really good care of it. The rockers, corners and floors are solid. Only stuff wrong is bed wood, surface rust and the dings here and there...oh and upholstery could use a redo. Im stoked on it!!!
