Project 95% original started
I finally brought my shortbed home to start working on a full blown restoration. I had to beat a seized brake drum off but finally got it unloaded. Best thing I ever did was put a winch on my car trailer, it will skull drag any pickup on to the deck, unloading is another story.This is a big window , factory air, ps, pb 283 and soon to be auto truck. I have an nos aluminum grill, bumper guards and all new MArk K trim for it, as well as original seat material from SMS. It will however have a 3-5 drop in it but will be running factory hubcaps. The last pic is from 3 years ago so it has been sitting awhile, the Oregon rain hopefully didn't take too much of a toll. Keep an eye out for listings in the for sale section as the 5 lug disc front needs to go, the rear end, grill, possibly hood , etc.

Re: Project 95% original started
Its amazing what 4 hours and the right tools do, Got the motor , trans and entire front end unbolted. Oh yeah, helps if bolts aren't rusted.
