Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Lookie, Lookie, something came in the mail.

It's so much nicer than my little Lincoln welder. I made up these silly little brackets, one to mount the bottom of the hood latch vertical mounting arm and the other one to secure the power steering cooler lines.

03 Silverado seats, but beyond that I don't know. It's a work in progress, stick around and we will see.

You have definitely made a lot of progress in one year. That truck commands a lot of respect. Daily driver or not, you've got to bring it to Good Guys Charlotte next year.

I've lived in my house for six years and I have a neighbor with a 70 Nova SS on jackstands that he hasn't touched. No progress at all. Who knows how long it was sitting prior to me moving in. (and no...he wont sell it -I've asked, and no I wont give anyone his address or phone number to ask him- haha)

Pfft, one year is nothing. You got a lot done in that year. Now you'll go another decade tuning, changing, modifying...you get the picture.

Truck looks great! Congrats on getting her up and running.
