junkyardjeff Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 I built it over 40 years ago and decided to tinker with it some,it really needs a complete restoration but that will come later so while some paint and glue is drying I am going to take the Keystones off along with the two piece slicks and going to put steel rims on with some one piece slicks. The BBC is coming out and a Pontiac engine is going it.
misterNNL Posted January 3, 2021 Posted January 3, 2021 Are you going to send the body for a relaxing soak in a purple pond of super clean to remove the old paint?
junkyardjeff Posted January 4, 2021 Author Posted January 4, 2021 The body will be soaked next year,I will just add a little detail to the body for now and stick it back on the shelf. I need to find the correct tail lights before I completely restore it,I needed some of the parts off the BBC for the longbed step side I do have soaking.
Dan Rosenello Posted January 8, 2021 Posted January 8, 2021 I just rebuilt one of these trucks from a chopped up eBay purchase. I’d love to see it reissued someday.
