Knuckle Buster
1973 Chevy Pickup
Most people would love to have a ’34 Ford hot rod, a tire-burning ’55 chevy, or a classic 60’s muscle car. The problem is, these cars tend to be expensive, and are getting harder to find every day. The idea behind the Knucklebuster project, was to illustrate how you can take a later-model vehicle from the 70’s or 80’s and turn it into a cool vehicle you can drive everyday without spending a fortune. Since these vehicles aren’t that old, they are relatively easy to find, and they are usually really cheap. They also don’t usually require extensive rust replacement and expensive frame-off restorations that take months or years and a lot of money to do. Another plus is the fact they already have huge aftermarket support so replacement parts are easy to find and usually very affordable, making them a perfect first project to tackle.
