Back again with another one.

It's been about three years. But I couldn't stay away. I recently took possession of another Chevy truck that needs some help.
It is a 1981 short bed, step side. It has a side mount wheel assembly and eye brow over the windshield, and wire wheel caps. Sometime in it's life it has had a Choo Choo custom job don to it inside and out.
It had been parked in outside storage for about 9 years. The only rust through is in the gas tank. It has superficial rust from front to rear and all of the wood in the bed is gone. The engine is a 305 and auto trans.
I haven't started taking it down yet, still making a list of what needs to be done. It will be a complete restoration. I have a powder coating shop so most items will get the treatment.
I plan to install a 350 with throttle body injection and put a 700R4 behind it.
I have some pictures in my camera but don't know how to get them out other than an email. pm me a email address and I'll send them for posting.
