56 project update

Here are a few recent pics of the progress on my truck. The idea of putting the door latches in the cab worked great!!! I will try to get some pics of how that was done. We still have a long way to go, but we are getting there.

Re: 56 project update

more pics before the frontend mods. I just didn't want a front bumper so I had Ronnie to make me a custom rollpan for the front. I got a local guy to do the seats.

Re: 56 project update

seats are stolen from my moms old 95 chevy lumina. drivers seat is power. I had the head rests taken off b/c I just hate the look of head rests sticking up in the back window. I will get some pics of my latch setup tomorrow. I also had the bright idea of putting in a dvd player-- but I think I am going to take it out and put in a cd player.
