New project. I'll name her Kali.

Just picked this toy up today for my lady and I. It's a 71 short bed. Needs Alot of work but will be nice when we get done with her.

At the moment plans mainly consist of any surface rust gone and any bad panels replaced. The motor and trans is a 350 with a 700r4 but will probably end with a LS motor with a th400 or 4/5/6 speed trans. Haven't decided on how low she will be. 5-6 minimum on 22s is the most likely of choices. Wish us luck guys. She will be a slow mover being I plan to finish my turbo truck first. But as it comes along I'll post up.

Badass project!

Hell yea, very nice

gonna be one sweet ride when finished

I vote for a matte clear summit white. :lol:

Nice, Ian!

Pre--1973...before Chevy screwed up the wheel wells...

Looks like a fun project for sure, 68-72 is one of my favorite body styles.

You're just saying that because I said it.

White truck is maybe a day or two away. Planned to have it running this week. But things haven't panned out correctly so been messing with this truck slowly instead.
And thanks guys. It should turn out nice.

Nice project, Ian. I am jealous in a lazy kind of way. :lol:

Nice! LS7/T56 is calling her name!
