I like the two of you! You should be telling people what to do if you have great ideas like this.
Sure I'm going to take it apart to clean it all up, but my family had the option to buy a 350/4 speed and passed 40 years ago. Speed limits top out at 80 around here and I have a much better truck...
I love the look of those patina finishes, but is that something that I'll forever have to screw with and re-spray or re-oil forever? Or is that something I can clear coat and not have to worry about any more than a standard paint job?
The first time I was in this truck was before I can remember it just always existed as far as I knew, it was my grandfathers truck, and the only one I ever knew him to own.
The last time it was on the road as a daily driver was in 2001. I was the last passenger it had in it during that...
