Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
Great job getting everything in primer. I would say that's some huge progress.

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
Love all those Comp parts. Vote here for the Aluminum heads you won't regret it.
I see you did some repair on the top above the windshield. Was it difficult? I have some pin holes on the driver side in the same area. Bret
