78 restore almost done!

I "started" this build a little over a year ago. Started out by removing the bed and putting a 4" lift on it. Did coil, trac bar drop and cbushings all from bronco graveyard. Then went with the shackleflip from ruffstuffspecialties for the rear. I was building the truck to take to NC uwharrie 4wheel park to wheel with my brother. However he didnt make it back home to ft.bragg durring his deployment. That pretty much made me lose all interest
