    1971 Ford Fairlane Galaxy(VERY rare one, 7.0L V8 with auto and its a soft top)
    1953? GMC truck..no idea whos it is really

    Haha well welcome to my build thread officially! Haha

    No I havent still gotta use the truck for work and still deciding if I want to paint the new body

    Good question...I'm still waiting for it to be done. I can't blame the guy. he has to fab up a whole tire swing. He has told me the full bumper is done just not the tire swing
