That's very nice - you've got the right plan, do the frame, put it back together and enjoy it!

Nice score. Frame off takes more time but will be well worth it when complete. Looking forward to seeing it come together.

Any pics of the project or of the truck before you started tearing into it?

I NEED PIC FIX, OR I'LL GO CRAZY!!!!!

RandyL1966 · 08-18-2010, 01:07 AM

Yes scroll up to the top of page it's red lol

Chevymaniac · 08-18-2010, 09:07 PM

Funny thing, today i checked your project out and the pics show up and yesterday there were none. My compture still working out the bugs as i just got the harddrive replaced. I feel like a idiot for asking you to post pics when clearliy you already did.

The frame is in amazing shape, at least you don't have to use too much elbow grease to make it look pretty. Did you have a gas filler door on driver's side rear fender?

RandyL1966 · 08-18-2010, 10:55 PM

That's ok i thought it was funny i figured you couldn't see them
