"It's not dying that you need be afraid of, it's never having lived in the first place." -Britt Reid

The title quote is from the movie "The Green Hornet", Which is what my friend named his project truck. This post I decided to show you the truck my friend has been working on. He picked up a '71 Chevy C10 long box which looked like this in the beginning.

With clearly a lot of work to do he brought it to school for body work then the following year for paint. He chose the color "Synergy Green", from the new Camaro. I'll put those pics up at the bottom. It still need a lot of mechanical work. It still has the original 350 and four speed. The plan is to rebuild a 400 turbo to make it an automatic. The motor will need some attention as it is quite the smoker going down the road, and hopefully some new brakes to stop him when he needs to.
The Color on the truck turned out looking better than I imagined it would. For a long box it is a lot of green but once he gets some new rims it will help the look more than the steel wheels do.

It's time for a new post, I can show everyone something I had been waiting to see for a while. I finally saw the engine between the frame rails. I got the engine cross member welded in and the trans cross member ready to bolt in. The engine wasn't kept in as we needed to do transmission work. We are gonna be rebuilding the trans, and I need to do work on the firewall and frame for the steering rack. 

 In progress on my rear fenders I completed one of them, so I also get to post a picture of the rear fender with tail light, just the way I imagined it.

Now gonna end on a completely different note and show a painting I did of Iroh. I hope everyone likes it.
