Re: lets see before and after rebuild pics

That finished 66 is one of the coolest trucks I’ve ever seen!

Here’s mine with a different before and updated after photo:

lets see before and after rebuild pics

Here are a couple pictures of a truck I just bought. It's a '65 that should make a pretty nice driver. It's well optioned: 283, PG, BBW, PS, PB, AC. It is non gauge and non factory radio. This is definitely a BEFORE picture.
I know, the stripes have to go! May drive it as is for a while, but my plans are for modifications with a resto mod theme. Period correct 327 backed by a 700R4, 5 lug conversion, a mild drop, American TTO wheels.
I want the interior and exterior to remain basically stock. Fawn inside and the original pale yellow outside. Paint code 548.
One thing that puzzles me is the fact that it has most all the custom trim items but has a painted grille and bumper. I have no idea if the truck was ever wrecked.

Hey mark, not only is your truck sharp, but also your setting for the pic is fantastic as well.
