Re: "Rice Rocket'

Dont sell what? lol

I wasnt planning on even painting the bed blue really, maybe spraypaint (I found 1 thats close). I need to learn some bodywork so I can sand it to bare metal (clip/bed) and epoxy prime. Im going to get another cab (mines shot, from top to bottom is rust)

I'll have a few misc. updates in the next week or so I hope..

Re: "Rice Rocket'

Before I even knew the 67-72 body, I was IN LOVE with a slammed 71 72 2 tone chevy!! That grille appeals to me for some reason, but its gotta be low (at LEAST 4/6).

I love 71-72 grilles too, that is the first one I ever wanted, but 67-68 looks great too
