Birthday parts!! Progress report for RustBucket!

Post by Joshpow »

Hows a set of new fenders for the bump for a birthday present?!! Got me a pretty nice set of 69 front fenders. Now some sanding and cleaning. Lay some paint and soon a nose job for the ol truck. Or maybe its a face lift. Gonna get a 69 grille and new set of fenders along with the 79 inner fender radiator support setup. Im looking forward to it! Also got the stuff to make me a black vinyl covered headliner for it too! Lots of bump work needing to get done. Got parts for new bed, tailgate, front clip, and headliner. Just finished the front suspension and brakes. Itll be in the best shape its been in since Ive had it! And the most colors for a while!! Oh, and heres the new fenders and bed!

73-9 inners need some fab work but they will work. Few holes and some tlc and itll fit. Plans...... Fill trim holes and clean it all up. Swap on with my 69 grille, inners, and these parts. Little tlc and some semigloss black for now. Later gonna work the bed to have some wider tubs and flat inside walls.
