Re: Finally, here it is!

When you say driveway, do you mean climate controlled facility with numerous square footage, hoist system, spray and blast booths, lots of machining equipment, etc, etc, etc??????

No there was no climate control at all....ill put more pics of it up when it was under construction outside, i worked at a powdercoating shop where i was able to shoot the frame, axles, leafs, all inner fenders, and every other part that wasnt chromed or coated. I also have acess to a water jet and i have a lathe, sanders and welders at my house. Since these pictures ive got a front driveline in it, ac and heating is all hooked up and working, the hood cowl is on it and ive put about 3000 miles on it. And yes ive had it at the beach and in the dirt. Thanks to the powdercoating it always cleans up just how you see it here. Thanks I look forward to talking and helping people on here as well as all the help i will need.

Re: Finally, here it is!

You can look thru the 73-87 parts

Or check out the vendors. Scroll down a third of the way. They're RED.

There are at least 3 who offer steel cowl hoods.

Nice truck. Nice driveway, too.
