Yeah, she's a 69. Body was excellent. Only rust is on the inner fenders. Everything else was clean.

Looks a little drafty. Nice rig for the price.

Any under the hood shots?

Looks pretty cool! I was never a fan of those style wheels...until now. I like how they look on your rig.

I was going over the body and found orange paint under the maroon. Any ideas why, the body looks to be the original on frame.
