1964 Gumby Project Build ... I6 SBW Stepside
This is my build thread started the first day of spring this year. This has been in my family since new. First purchased new in 64 by my dad's father. Then it was given to family friend, whom of which let it go to hell. My mom's father bought it off of the family friend and started replacing piece by piece for me, to be my first car when I turned 17. However my grandfather passed away of a heart attack while working on the truck. The truck has been pass on to me, and has great sentimental value for me and my parents. I let it stay at my parents for years rusting away until I decided to make a difference. I am now 25 starting my restoration. I dabble in cars and engines a little, so I am getting overwhelmed with my future metal work I'll have todo. So if anyone out there has any suggestions as my built goes on, they will be greatly appreciated. Happy Easter!
