I know, I know, This is not a wheeler. But it is a restoration project. I just got this rig Monday, and started the teardown yesterday. The Floor pans and rocker panels need some new steel, but it isn't that bad. Previous owner had a bad habit of drunk driving, so the grill and left fender need replacement. I am going to take it all the way to the frame, treat and undercoat everything, then start the rebuild process. At some point the original 18R was swapped to a 20R and it looks like the tranny was swapped too. I haven't looked at the rear end yet to see if it is original. This is going to be a fix and flip, but with quality, performance parts and upgrades. I'll post pics later.
