    This is a rant I admit it I have a 1960 chevrolet and finding parts are murder I have had the truck at the body shop well the cab is at the body shop and it is almost done. But what good is having a cab if you dont have doors. The damn thing front end parts rebuilt everything brakes steering and everything is top notch motor all rebuilt setting on the frame. Had a bed someone stole it from behind the shop good thing the frame and cab and bed were'nt together they probably would have stole the whole damned thing. I wish I wouldnt have inherited this thing.....

    You know what was shitty the bed was done all that had to be done was shot with paint. I didnt have to pay for the work done and his insurance gave me a whoppin 300 bucks for it. That was the only good thing. Now I am in a search once again hopefully I will find another maybe a complete truck
