Smile New Pics Finally

Here are some pics of the body and frame(under all torn down album). The PO Hacked the frame up pretty good on his 351w install. the old blwon motor was held in by 4 bolts and no welds not to mention the exhaust by bailing wire. Body is in really good shape for 59 years young, the bed has very little wear and the fenders only have a few dents(so far, haven't media blasted yet too wet), the cab has a few rust spots but not bad.

But all in all I only paid $400 for the whole thing, so I thik I did pretty good!
Enjoy!

Looks like a pretty solid project.

Of course its hard to tell with my head all twisted over to see them...lol. I had to consume several frosty beverages to try and compensate, then I fell out of the chair and not only did I hurt my neck I will have additional medical expenses incurred from the concusion I recieved....where's my lawyer.....

Bobby, I get the idea it doesn't take much for you to consume additional frost beverages

BTW, the truck looks like a great deal. The front clip looks to be worth $400 alone.

LOL...I do appreciate a frosty beverage now and again

I agree....a good F1 front clip is well worth the $400. Being as how your not realy using it and its just stacked up there getting in your way, I'd gladly take it off of your hands....

Sorry all, took the pics with my phone and uploaded them at lunch. Didn't really pay to much attention as to what way they were. Now I need a drink!

It still has the stock front end on it, but that is for my next project. The MII front end is in, I just have to go pick it up. Then the fun begins.
