Ok, so I have not had any luck with the 69 Camaro Pace Car convertible project, so I have settled for a little more realistic project. This one is a 1972 Chevy K10 Pickup. This truck will hopefully replace the Dodge, so I can stop catching all the grief about not having a Chevrolet in my garage!
This is as she was delivered.
He threw in a lot of goodies
(And a little trash)
Of course the first thing to come off was the bed.
With the bed off, I was pleased to find that the frame was in pretty good shape. There were some extra brackets welded on that will need to come off.
The front clip came off next. Amazingly, I only had to cut 1 bolt.
This is the front section of the frame. Unfortunately for me, the crossmember has been modified to fit a big block. This may pose a little problem.
The firewall was also moidified to allow room for the big block.
So far, this is about the worst rust I have found.
Stop by, I can put everyone to work!
Not sure what is going to happen with this.
Finally got the cab off.
This is whats left of the frame.
Off to Fredericksburg Powder Coating.
All blasted and coated!
