Well update 5-24-2020 Got the panel in the shop😠had to put it on dollies to get it in the door Angell has been busy sanding and most of the horizontal areas are left to done, darn lot of disc’s but she wants it down and not blasted soooo. Been cleaning the interior ready for new wood from Mar-k should be here soon, cut shop backed up from 19 😩 Built stands for fenders and hood so I’m ready to pull hood this week. Got to build seat mounts will have to figure hinges or lose the use of under seat boxes.
The sheet metal looks to be really clean , no rust.

Two Rust spots to repair so far. Rear inner fender (looks like blow out damage) and drivers side rear corner behind fender would be fab corner on pick up. I need to find patch panel. The rear doors need a masseuse to get the wrinkles out 😝. But mostly little dings here and there nothing major it must have been SW truck but no vin so can’t trace it has AZ assigned # so that’s that.
That's going to be one great driver I'm thinking. I can see a LS series engine with appropriate overdrive tranny, all the sound proofing tricks put in place, AC, and stock suspension made like new. Then just drive and enjoy! That's just me though. Whatever the ultimate plan is it's gonna be NICE!
Haven’t figured out the motor trans part yet she wants to get it sanded and in primer Before we tackle it will have the 261 looked at it runs great leaks little like old harleys and puppies (marking territory)LOL
