just this month was able to get it licensed. I have drove it a couple hundred miles. still a few things left to do, but real close to being done.

WhippinSaw · 07-28-2013, 06:30 PM

How long did it take from start of build till you drove it again?
Can you post more pics of the interior colors? Good timing on getting it ready for the summer.

no, it looked pretty good but was hard and brittle from sitting. the truck had been sitting since 1984.

gofastnut · 07-30-2013, 04:33 PM

Wow, it really shined up! You put some work into it, and it shows, good job!
Thanks for sharing.
