Build story
She sat unloved in a field here in sw Washington for 27 years before I brought it home.
I found a used small block chevy I could afford on my small budget. My friend Tim gifted me the transmission. I welded up my own driveshaft and presto! Budget jalopy ratrod truck.
Along the way I gaffed some home brew wiring in it, managed to get it titled and licensed (that was an ordeal thanks to covd) and I drive it often and slowly make improvements.
Its not one for the purists but it drives really well and does big smoky burnouts!
