TEASER
isnt it neat that we say ''NEW'' to describe something 40 + years old

this is about what you can expect for 5 bills here in the rust belt. body panels are pretty straight. no drip rail rust. floors are rusty on both sides. cab mounts are rusty and one has a bullet hole in it. drivers rocker is rusty. drivers inner fender is starting to bubble up back by the cowl support. passenger side seems good. drivers fender is fair. passenger side is kinda crunched and looks to have had a skim coat of putty. garage door sized hole in the dash for the kraco special of the day. bed floor is rusty in front, but looks good other than that. tailgate has one dent on the top, but no rust that i can tell.
it was an fe auto truck. i'm hoping for fe power with a c-4 in the future.
over all, about a three out of ten. lol













bullet hole:



i'll bet it was loud in there. looks to be a good sized hole (plugged up with some hose and indoor/outdoor carpet for proper fit):

The hood looks to be from a older truck since it has badges on it also.




Foggy

it is, but i have the original rust free hood too. and i haven't forgotten about your stuff foggy, i still need to get a tube to ship the trim in.

looks good to me i like it

Not bad at all!

Looks good
Does this mean you will be at SS4 with a slick instead of a bump

maybe ken. it might take me that long to get this thing on the road.

Dude.
Don't tease me.
A bullet hole? A real bullet hole?
Where is the bullet hole?
We want pictures.
Here in Texas, a real bullet hole in your truck is a badge of greatness and cause for much celebration and passing around of adult beverages.
I expect a full confession complete with glossy 8x10's with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one is and how it can be used as evidence against us....... er ah, sorry.
I just had a little 60's flashback.

ROTFLMAO
U@ss

u.s., no power point presentation from me, but those last two pics clearly show a large caliber bullet hole from, at my best guess, what had to be a hunting rifle. i'd say in the 30 caliber range cause that's one big ol' hole! just imagine sitting in the passenger seat with the muzzle down (safety first), and a cold one after a long day in the woods chasing that elusive "tirty pointer", when the truck hits some wash boards on the old dirt road and "BAM". the rifle goes off and you spill your beer.
now two rules have been violated. "don't drink and drive- you might hit a bump and spill some" and "never leave a weapon loaded-someone might get hurt, and you might waste a perfectly good 30-06 shell and spill your beer".
or it could just be some random rust holes that just happen to line up ballistically.
you decide.

Yeah, Ezer, rust doesn't leave exit wounds. Nice find-it's not a 64 but a buildable shortie is always a good start.

Ezerner.
Nah.
That little piss ant hole in the floorboard IS NOT a bullet hole, and does not count.
That s a punched out drain hole for an aftermarket A/C.
I'm talking real bullet holes.
Like in the door skin, the tail gate, or front fender.
We got some of them here in Texas and the guys keep those holes in their trucks with honor; and honor says you can't fake them.
Still ROFLMAO

looks like you have a little work to do.
not bad for the price though.
i have repair pieces for that garage door in the dash.

speaking of bullet holes i had to go tow a truck a few years ago that was shot and bleeding.
it was a newer chebby, the guys rifle somehow discharged while he was driving, the bullet went thru the trans.,all the fluid came out and left him d.o.a. on the roadside.

Chris it's the same color as my 66 LWB. Nice looking project for a daily driver. Good luck with the build hope to see it a SS4.

Way to go Chris! Looks like Santa came early to your house. Everybody should get a Slick for Christmas. Now we have a new armrest and drinkholder for SS4!

BTW, I hope the swelling comes down soon. T-fal tends to hurt more in the cold winter months.

Funny you didn`t mention that in your Email!!!!

Good onya mate!,It looks a bit better than Berryl, no alot better than her actually!,now geta move on its only 20 months to SS4 and I want to ride shotgun with you again!! down to HOOTERS

alan, you are more than welcome to ride shotgun, but i think next time we might just opt for service and food quality over chestyness and ditzyness...or maybe not. after all, we are pretty well fed for the most part and could probably skip a meal or two without any dire consiquences. lol

Oh yes she was dizzy!
