Re: 1971 factory short,big block, complete nos restoration
Glad I found this before it's done! Bounced over from mcbassin's build. Super super nice man! You gotta run T/A's with the letters out
Do you fly the whirly-bird?

Re: 1971 factory short,big block, complete nos restoration
Cab looks incredible! Awesome work as always. I know how time consuming it is putting all that stuff together, sometimes I think I should move a bed to the shop.....

Re: 1971 factory short,big block, complete nos restoration
Looks great...other than the critters. I just find the typical, spiders, hard-shell bugs and the occasional mouse. All I'll take over those. One advantage to living in Indiana I guess.
