Overview
Here is a build guide to help anyone out:
Start of rust repair
Hard top repair/ restoration
ORD 4” lift (front end)
I'm calling this the "Rednecked Resto" due to the condition this was in when I got it. Hacked up wiring throughout, pieced together seats from three different trucks. Rocker and floor rust and it had been primed over primer several times. This will be converted to a full vert truck using a 74 top and header frame.
