I finally got my 53 Stepside stripped down and ready for media blast. I found an old school fabricator down here who is going to take my truck, blast it, then he and I will work on the body bit by bit. Along the way, I want to install an IFS and find an appropriate donor rear end. Once that's all done, I can bring my baby back home and find a nice small block to throw in there. I figure I still have a long long way to go especially with progress going so slow, but I'm still enjoying the project very much and can hardly wait to get this thing drivable... | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | Don't give up....I spent 5 years on my first project and it looks like it will be five on the one I have now!!
