Below is a breakdown of the extensive restoration by category.
Everything and I mean everything has been replaced with new parts, rebuilt, or restored to better than original. No bolt was left untouched.
I have close to 1000 hours in this build. I’m sure I’m overlooking details because this was a very thorough and detailed build.
Text 724-777-6416 for any additional questions. Clean Clear PA title in my name. I can answer any questions you have, I built the truck myself.
