Re: my 71 chevy

something doesn't look factory with the back window... is that a 73-87 back window? or did you do something with the rear roof seam. i just can't seem to put my finger on it.

Re: my 71 chevy

Thing looks incredible. What all did you do for the bed floor, I really like it, is it just unstained wood or am I completely missing something?
