Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Well I guess I'm going to do it. I bought this from Tom (Tll74) from Oregon had it hauled here to Kansas. He bought it from a guy who had it all tore down, Tom put it together for shipping to get it to me. Has some rust on floor pans, a little behind doors, small rust behind rear wheel where exhaust comes out, a little on front fenders. Doors are the worse, drivers hinge area is cracked and both lower doors ar rusted. I have a good set of truck doors he is going to cut down and put in re inforcement plate by latch. No rust in bedfloor. Has a pretty good dent in tailgate but bodyman says he can fix it. He is going to fix al rust and dents, paint door jams, tailgate jams, and dash area and kick panels. As of now not going to paint bedlfoor but that may change. Not painting firewall or inside fenders. Getting motor tuned up and brakes all checked, putting it all back to original under hood hopefully, if I can find a carb.
Have NOS sport mirrors, NOS woodgrain door panel inserts, bought a tilt, Bought a original AM-FM, Going to buy a woodgrain glove box door, Bought new seat covers, bought a near new outer steel chrome plated grill, new inner grill, better console, better rear panels, tach. Have a original ALL chrome tailgate handle off a 71 super I parted
Need to buy new carpet, new rear seat cover, new seals, new grill emblem and bezels.
I have some 8 inch ralleys with BFG 33x12.50x15 on them to go on it. not sure if I will put a 2 inch lift or not, but will put new shocks on it
Going to mechanic this week I hope, then to bodyman in Dec, he said 3-5 months, HOPEFULLY!!!

Anyway here are before pics and some while I'm tearing it down. More to come as things get done
