I'm planning a semi-resto daily driver. i'll be getting it road worthy then i'll replace the bed and the cab because they're pretty rusted out, then some other misc body parts and do-dads.

You need to rust that hood, yo. And throw some wide ass wheels/airbags on it....NOT.

I love old domestics. Keep us posted on the resto :)

Yes to airbags, yes to keeping the big block, no to wide ass wheels. Steelies and cop car dog-dishes FTW!
