Few more pics. Buffed up grille, power washed the motor and sprayed some engine paint and added some bling. Started on the interior, its going to be red and black. Going to mount some bucket seats out of a 92 ford pickup, have the drivers in but havent got any pics yet. Probably wont get much more done as I'm putting it in storage for the winter because its taking up my work stall and i need it for winter. You would think a 3 car garage would give a guy some room but I guess I have to many projects. Enjoy pics they seem a lot clear when clicked on, still figuring the picture thing out.

Got the grille off a truck out on my dads farm, together we have 7 67-72 ford pickups out there, going to pic up a 69 this weekend with a 240 6cyl and a 4 speed for $200 and runs and drives just needs a starter. I have lots of pics of the trucks on the farm. I'll have to post them sometime. Kinda diamonds in the rough.

No, just a lot of buffing with an aluminum cleaner and a mothers speed ball.
