Kevin's progress pic's

Hello everyone this week I decided to give my son Kevin his own place here. I would like to thank everyone here, for all the help and advice everyone has given me and Jenna. Now Kevin gets to share his truck with everyone with a little help from mom and dad. :p

This thread is totally devoted to the restore that Jenna, Kevin and I are doing to a 1972 chevy 4X4. We will post all work done here. This will keep it straight for me and take up less space on the board. :p

Below is a link to the post that I had started, <landon4421> I will keep this thread, but if Josh need to delete to make space he may do so at anytime. Thank you Josh.

So here goes, this is the truck that started the whole quest.

pic 2

the truck in the pic above is a 1972 chevy 4X4. This truck was my original truck, but now due to the fact the frame was totally twisted, we decided to go with the '67 body style.

Here is a pic of the motor.
