I just bought this 1987 square body in Tennessee and brought her home to North Carolina yesterday! I can’t wait to get started on it. I’m going to restore everything inside and out. Going to paint her a two tone black and silver.
Looking forward to being a part of this group!

I've always liked the two-tones...in just about any color combo...black and silver is one of my favorites.

So, are you gonna do black and silver?
