Cool, sounds like a proper tear down. You'll be glad you kept it that organized and labeled when it goes back together. I like to take lots of pics of stuff I tear apart, so when comes time to put it back together, If I get stuck and can't remember, I can go back to my pics and see what is what. It helps alot.

Picked up the BBW cab today from CVA....looks like I'm buying his 61 also. I guess this 65 will go to my lil bro

Glad to see I'm not the only one bag and tagging! Honestly though, I already have so many bags with just the front clip and bumper/bed that I'm still nervous about putting it back together when the time comes! I've got half a box fulls of bags already!

So now that you've got the BBW cab you're moving on to another truck?

Yeah, what's going on here. You should know you can't mention something like that and not give the details.

...how rude!

Well the guy who had the cab I bought, also has a 61 chevy apache. Already BBW. He already has the frame blasted and sprayed black, and hes got $300 worth of ne steering parts on it also. I looked at it today andit was NICE. ad its already done so that boosts my build a lot. The 61 is a more rare truck, even moreso cause all the side trim is there and intact. Most trucks didnt even come with it. The trim alone is worth $1500 cause no one makes it. Plus, the front grille is aluminum and he found a PERFECT one, saw it today. I even like the dealer installed side steps in the bed. He said the bed an tailgate are in very good shape.

So basically, its too good to pass up. I paypal'd him the $1500 and I'll be going back up there sunday to get it. I'll have the frame totally done already so I can focus on body and drivetrain.

A far as my 65,its staying in the driveway until further notice. I was going to build it halfass for my 16 yr old bro but honestly its still going to be more work and money that way also. So its staying, I see no reason to sell it.

Heres a few pics. The frame is now a rolling unit, as opposed to the pics here. He also has new fendersfor it, etc. I'm excited. Gonna be a rare build.

well dude you're so deep into it you might as well hire one of us to be a full time restoration technician to put these trucks together.

Your neighbors probably love you at this point

Up until today no one has even seen the trucks...My driveway is so long and the garage turns into the side of the house
