Guess it would have helped if i would have took the core support with the rest of the stuff.... It was hiding in the garage

10-roger...

Actually, pre-paid on some of the labor so that he could get a nicer shrinker/stretcher for his shop. Worth it to me as the end product on my truck is nicer and he's happy adding more/better tools to his already nice shop. His labor has been very reasonable and his work very good so far. Plus, I wouldn't have time to learn to do some of these things and do them so my build wouldn't be nearly as far along without his help/letting me use his tools.

All i did this weekend , was strip the cowls, and delete the antennae, and a couple of holes the PO drilled in them.....

Thanks for the kudo's!

**kev2809** · 12-14-2009, 12:56 PM

so what did you do with your stock antennae? i was thinking of shaving mine too but not sure what to about the antennae, i wanted the stock look but after looking through these build threads it seems the less clutter on the body the better they look!

Kev, the antennae that was on it looked aftermarket, and we decided to shave it. The hidden antennae i am leaning towards is this:

You have a nice truck on your hands, making great progress. I wish I was as far along on my build as you are yours. Your son is one lucky man, cherish the time you have with him out in the shop. I wish my dad was more into automobiles and restoration. He likes to see what I do and can create and is willing to lend a hand here and there but other wise he doesnt like partaking too much. If I ever have kids I hope I can have the bond that you and your son are building. These are the memories that last a life time. Keep up the good work.

**kev2809** · 12-14-2009, 02:11 PM
