Hey RCbowtie69, Thanks for checking in and the kind words! That sucks you found rust, I suppose better now than later. I can certainly relate on the slow progress. Just keep at it and it will come together bud! Don't forget the pics when you can.

Wow amazing project dude, you did pick up on the welding quick, kudo's to you. I bought my 67 not to long ago and just "temporarily" patched the floors ( 2- 4" holes) but I do need to do rockers and cab corners in the next year or so. I am anxious (and terrified) to try my hand at welding myself. Good luck man

Started the engine up for the first time. Link to video below. Ran pretty good. Need to finish up a couple things and then I will start putting the body parts on. Let me know if you think I made the right choice with the 40 series super flowmasters.
