rolling resto

just posted some pics in my gallery showing some recent progress on my frame detailing. After I get the frame done I will be looking into disk brake conversion and a c6 tranny. Problem is donor trucks are getting scarce

Wow, it's amazing how time flies. I posted this more that 2 years ago. Just wanted to share some recent progress on my truck. New pictures in my gallery.
- New leaf springs
- underbed painted
- frame under bed painted
- C6 conversion
- Disc brakes purchased, but in the bed
- Cab off frame detailing started
- new urethane cab mounts purchased
Anyone needing measurement while things are deassemble - just let me know
