Finally got another finished 71 super
I bought this truck here on the board, had it shipped cross country, stripped the poorly executed paint job off, returned it back to its original form and here it is. Back story : gentleman here on board had truck posted for sale, fresh paint but incomplete. Motor was fresh covered in aluminum and chrome , trans was fresh and ready to go, no glass no interior other than some parts in boxes. Had truck shipped, previous owner zip tied doors shut which when riding cross county rubbed all the paint off everything they touched. Got truck home and started inspecting it, as it sat the clear started lifting . Took it to guy who painted my 72 4x4 and it stayed with him for three years- I finished two other trucks waiting on this one. He started digging at clear and that led to paint coming off in huge sheets... After this issue he pretty much quit working on it, so I picked it up. I repainted it the factory light red and white rather than the dark red that it had been painted. So here it is finished and getting ready to make an appearance at super chevy Bristol at end of September.
