Im starting my first frame off build on my 1969 lwb c10 i just bought and im looking for some help in guiding me for how to get started.

So far what i know is i want to be able to drag the truck due to my addiction and love of racing (@ the track only of course), while still having it be street legal. Im not looking to be able to daily drive this truck, nor take it on long roadtrips. But i would like it to be comfortable to drive around the city from show to show, and on the 45minute drive out to the local track.

Ive spent years as an automotive and heavy duty mechanic and am capable of doing MOST of the work myself. But a few helpful pointers to get started would most definitly be appreciated!!

Thankyou!!
