Well
I finally scanned in my pictures from my original truck prior to resto.... First a little intro....I bought this truck in High Point, NC from a guy in July 2004....I now know I paid WAY to much for what I got, but this was only the first of many lessons I have learned on this restore project!!!!.....Also, did not join this board till I was 3/4 of the way done.....Yet another lesson learn....My original plans were to have this truck as a daily driver since I only had a 15 mile round trip commute to work at the time....but I got laid off, found a new job an hour away and moved....thus my brother inspired me to do a frame off and get her back looking good!!! (he just finished his frame off '72 454 corvette).....My brother owns a landscape company and had a little room in the back of his shop for us to start this resto.....so here are the pictures of when we rolled her into the shop....her final resting place for the next 2 years and counting (these pics are from June 2006)....
