Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

Thanks guys. My wife really liked the fire pit. Sometimes you need to get some brownie points and do some of those honey dos. Lol I had a friend come over and help mount the hood today.

Thanks. That's just extra parts. They both have some rust spots. So I don't really have any plans for them.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

Man you have gotten a lot done recently. The rims and tires look perfect. I am kinda jealous. I have heard the weather back home has been really nice.

Thanks. Yes it has been very nice here lately. Upper 70's and low 80's it doesn't get much better than that.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

I didn't fix all the dings on the bottom of the bed that goes behind the cab but other than that it turned out pretty good. I plan on putting a box against the cab to put luggage in so it will not show.
