Update on my '78
After digging into my '89 and finding this....
And the tailgate won't close I decided that it would become a doner for the '78 so starting with this Out went the remains of the red interior that came with it and in went the gray Got the dash altogether

Wow! that's bad when a 78 is in better shap then a 89... The 78 looks to be in good shap, so what's the plans?

No major plans. Just building it for a driver and to pull my pop up camper. I'm still trying to make a deal for the 4speed for it though

Re: Update on my '78
I really dislike Taiwan fenders
I have 3 shims on the left side just so the hood will clear but they will have to do till I get some real ones Found a descent grille at the scrap yard It goes in for it's safety on Thurs It has been a busy weekend
