lol cool story popdad
my 76 was taken in as trade for partial payment for a job i did.. i was using it as a trash hauler from job sites cause it is shot when my son found it and fell in love with it.
well its been pulled from duty at my company although its still registered and insured, and my son and i are gathering up parts for it to do a total frame off and when he gets his permit ( assuming he pulls his head out of his ass cause he is old enough now, but dad wont let him) that will basically be his daily driver
once we get started on the actual work, ill start posting pics and progress pics
