69' No Name Build
 
I have finally begun again on this project. I started it about 10 years ago, then someone decided to relieve me of all my goodies under the hood right in front of my house. Anything unboltable was unbolted. About $2000.00 worth of engine stuff. This really set me back as I am not a billionaire. Three years ago I started to really finish my truck as i have been building and rebuilding it for 20 years. Anyways finally ripped my dream car apart for real this time and the insanity will begin. Follow along if you feel like it and I hope to continue learning stuff on here from all of you and build this car as I have always pictured it.

Here's the start:

Stripped frame, frame almost all welded up. All seams, holes, did the guldstrand mod remodded the upper towers to clear control arms. GM really did a piss poor job of welding this sucka.

Looks like your well on your way. Truck looked real cool

Thanks. I am so excited about this build I can't stand it. I wish I just had all the cash I need right now but...as always just gotta be ingenious and do a little at a time. I do not want this project to take me 3.5 years like the truck did cause I wanna get in this and just blast. Stay tuned!
