G-rex -64 stepside project

I've been here lurking and posting,but finally have some pics.I was going to use a 500 caddy,but found a few issues and am going to go with 350 and trans from an 88 chevy with 70,000 on it.I have all my suspension to lower 4 in front and 6 in rear,jumping back and forth between sheet metal and mechanical work.My youngest is 8 and he and I have our fun in the shop working together on this together,he rips into anything and does a good job,too.He was dieing to rip into the caddy,so it was all him.I need to install engine with all the new wiring ,so any help or pointers can't hurt.Thanks guys ,alot of good people and info on this site.

Re: G-rex -64 stepside project

Welcome to the forum

I remember those days when my son and daughter were young and liked to help me on the rigs. My son still likes to help, but now he's 29. Although I tend to help him more I think since he has nicer toys than the old man.

Keep us updated on your progress....with pics of course.
