Cool 1971 Chevy C20

My 1971 Chevy C20 pickup has only 71,300 documented miles on it and I am the third owner. As you can see in the pictures, the first step was to shorten the bed and re-paint it back to the original Chevy Hugger orange. Although the truck had very low miles, it was still over 43 years old and needed just about everything rebuilt, refurbished or replaced. All of the mechanical systems were completely re-done. A new GM 350 crate motor and Monster Turbo 350 transmission were installed followed by a complete rebuild of the rear end, brakes, steering, front and rear suspension, window and door mechanisms, all interior components and all gauges and wiring harnesses. All of the rubber parts on the truck, such as door seals, window seals, etc. were replaced. I also replaced the front and rear bumpers, grill and all of the parking, stop and turn signal lenses. Literally every part on this truck has been gone through. This weekend I'm going to start installing a Vintage Air A/C system and a new Griffin aluminum radiator.
