New here, 1974 Chevy Short bed

Hi everyone! I had a 1986 Chevy Long bed 4x4, but it got hit by some jerk who was driving in the turn lane...

So yesterday, I went out and I got myself a 1974 Chevy Short Bed 2wd! It's been thru hell. It's dash is practically shreds of plastic, the bench seat is just a metal frame, and some idiot tried to paint it with house paint. It needs a lot of TLC.

Lucky for me, I have a 1986 long bed with a LOT of parts that are still in awesome shape!
