    neat truck! I wonder why the crossmember was cut, were they gonna put a big block ford in it or something? there's no reason to do that for any chevy motor that I know of...unless maybe it was a straight 6 out of an early nova

    PU is a little more stripped then this now.

    Looking for shop to soda blast body and sand blast frame.

    Looks like Jesse's using a Speedway Crossmember for a mustrang II up front.

    Hey, you're prolly already aware, but doesn't soda blasting create paint adhesion issues?

    Like, to the point where paint co's won't even warranty the paint?
