My Kinda Sorta Build Thread

Hey guys! My name is Wyatt. I'm 16 and I have had this truck for about years and I've been working on the truck (more like tinkering) for about the past three years or so. The truck has been in and out of my family for 30 yeas or so. My dad, uncle and ending with my grandmother have all had a turn with the truck. When I first got the truck the interior was in pretty bad shape (seat, door panels, seatbelts, dashpad, gauge cluster, and column) and the heater box and lines were FULL of leaves. After tons of work I have gotten her to the point she is at today. I drive her to school every day and have never has a problem with it. Here is a list of things I have done so far! Mostly with my own money along with help from mom and dad.
- New grill bowtie
- Repainted black around headlight bezels
- New headlight bezels
- Repainted air cleaner
- Deep dish rally wheels of another 1972 chevy truck
- New BF Goodrich radial R/A's
- New door handles
- Tilt steering column
- New steering wheel
- Tach cluster
- New to me sun visors
- New solid rear window
- New rear sport bumper
- Exhaust
- Original AM radio converted to AM/FM by Gary tayman. It's AWSOME!!
- Hitch
- Bigger and original rear view mirror
- Dome light
- 3 Point GM seat belts
- Original black door panels
- New to me original armrests
- Front sway bar
- Headlights
- Undercoated the underneath side of the can and bed
- Power-washed the front suspension and repainted the suspension
- Courtesy lights
- Glove box light
- Glove box liner

I've got to say that this site is the best!! I've been on my dad's profile looking on the site since 2007 but just now got around to making my own. The guys on the site here are great!! I'm sure I will have a few question and hopefully I will start selling parts here soon on my own profile instead of my dads.

I'm sure there are a few things In my list that are missing but for the most part that's it. I know you guys LOVE pictures so I will do my best to post pics of all the little stuff I do and then some Most of the things that I wanted to do the truck I have already done, but there are still a few things I'd like to do. Let me know what you guys think, thanks!!
