This is my 77 chevy. I have built this one from the frame up. Done most of the work myelf, with the exception of the paint job and installing the new engine and transmission. It is my pride and joy and i have added so many things to make it beautiful inside and out. I just installed a brand new 350 long block and a brand new 350 turbo transmission. Although you can't see it in these pics, i also installed a set of multi colored ground effects to light up the night. It is a beautiful work of art and i am very proud of how it has progressed. Just so everyone will know, one of these pics show an oil stain underneath but rest assured it was there when i parked to take the pic! It certainly didn't come from mine.

Well i had to add some more pics to show off some of the new additions. I am still in the process of installing a brand new set of custom seats. I recently added new carpet and some exterior chrome to make it shine. Just repainted the frame and added some chrome to the engine. I also got a new set of deep dish mags to make it even more stylish. As you can see it is still under construction but slowly but surely coming along. I will add more pics as i go along. Oh...the man in the pic with me is my mechanic. This pic was taken the day i picked up my truck after having the new engine and transmission installed.

You have to excuse the water spots in the back. It was raining practically the whole day and the more i tried to dry it, the more it rained!
