Re: New to me 65'
Welcome to the board. Truck looks good. I flipped your picture around so I wouldn't get a worse crick in my neck. Sounds like you got a good plan for it.

Re: New to me 65'
Thanks everyone..I've started tinkering with it for now. I'm building a 08 Silverado wreck right now. Time is limited. Once he 08 is sold then I'll be all over the 65 to get ready before the first summer nights cruise.
