Combining my old Introduction thread with this one, i will update as i make progress. Resurrecting Typhoon 1605 after a few years of neglect, lots of rust, and attempted theft

Here are a few pictures of the truck and a few progress pictures, The truck will eventually have every nut and bolt out, and a full frame off restoration as time allows in between other projects. Every piece on the truck will be painted, powder coated or polished, including nuts and bolts.
