Re: 71 Cheyenne Rooftop Build

Still plugging away. I am planning to pull my 350 on the roof of my parking deck this weekend if it does not rain or snow. I have been pulling all the stuff off the LS I don't need and have painted it. I also changed the thermostat, installed EVAP/EGR caps, and an oil pressure gauge adapter. Many runs to the junkyard have been made for many missing parts (accessory drive, starter, etc). I have to work mostly at night since I don't have a garage so pictures are sporadic. It still looks awful right now as the drip rail/rockers are primer, the bed is black, there is no tailgate/rear bumper, and there is a 12" gap between the cab and the bed. I will post a detailed list of swap parts when done, I am $5,296 in now which is way more than I planned. I keep every receipt and a spreadsheet of parts for the project so I know exactly what I spend. I am $13K in parts thus far with paint (shooting it myself), front suspension, wheels/tires, bed trim, and vintage air left to go..eek.
