Well here goes... This build has been going on for about 10 months...
This is my 1969, that I actually found it about 25 miles from my house..
A couple of pics from when I picked it up, it had been sitting for about 14 years behind a barn, spent a couple hours pressure washing and got it cleaned up before the breaking it all down..
Jump ahead a couple of months, don't really have a lot of pics of the teardown.....
The Frame has been completely blasted, and POR applied, 4'inch suspension, and new shocks... The motor has been completely rebuilt, and as of today 07/02/2013 the headers have arrived, and will be installed..
Brakes are ready to roll....
The rear will remain drum, and disc on the front!!!!
Here are a couple of misc pics....
Looking great so far! Hope to be in your shoes in a few months, keep up the good work!
Bout time! Keep it coming!!

any info on the motor...looks like later 5.0 heads...i see egr plugs in the back of the heads.
Yeah I will have to find the info on the motor... And get it posted....
The Headers from James Duff went on great, and look awesome!!
If things stay on track this week, we will be placing the tub back on the frame this Saturday...
Big Day... It has been almost eight months since removing the tub.
Next stop will be to the body shop for Paint.....
It feels like Christmas around here...
