69 K5 - Some PICS of my work in progress

My goal is not a frame up resto, but to stabilize her into a solid weekend fun truck. I bought this truck last July

New NOS Gm Front bumper(ebay) and a grill inner/outer($12 at pic n pull)



Engine I pulled at pic n pull for $125..I changed all gaskets and she purrrrrrrs now. New headers, alt, rebuilt carb etc. Still working on so don't comment on the loose ends in pic ...LOL



Interior shot...pulled old carpet..Por15'd floors, then primed, seats are original and door panels too



Side view..starting body work next weekend. Finally found top last month in super condition(hatch too).

Those would be tie downs the PO installed. I am not sure if I'll remove them or not . For now, they'll stay until I am ready to paint. PO was quite active with his "upgrades"
