    Hi, here are a few pics of my 73 Ranchero my dad (Jim-73GTS) bought from geo737. I've made some small progress, but hope to finish in the next year and a half.

    Looks like you have done some good old tear down! Let us know what goes on and keep us informed. We love them pictures:D

    And hey I am young too and love my cruck. Trust me all of the work and getting pissed off will totally pay off when all of your friends are driving peices of junk hondas and you are cruising in a badass americana machine. Mine was my first vehicle and I have had an amazing time with it. Just wait until you can drive it, it is the best feeling in the world.

    Do not hesitate to ask questions on here and ask for help we will help you out in what ever way we can.

    Good luck man.

    Actually most of the tear down was done by geo737. I'm taking out the dash to put in another one my dad has and change the interior color to black. I have a lot of cleaning and then painting to do and the put it back together.

    Will post pics as I go.

    Thanks guys for all your help and the kind words!

    The dash that was in my car had a hole cut for the radio so i got the dash from my dads 72 torino parts car. All it needs is to be died black.
