First Post - New member for So Cal.
Hello,
I have been a member on the board for the last couple of months, just checking things out in preparation for my new project. I just picked the truck up last weekend. As you can see it is a 68 longbed (wood), it looks like it was originally a tan/gold color, with saddle interior, 350/350 combo (327 originally), manual drum brakes all around and power steering. It runs, kind of, blowing some white-ish smoke from the passenger side which I have to sort out. The brakes need to be bled, other wise I should be able to get it on the road shortly. I am hoping to make it a short bed, I originally wanted to swap to 5 lug, now I am thinking about baggin it on the 8 lugs. Has anyone on this forum done this? I searched last night but didnt find what I was looking for. The hood needs to be replaced as it is damaged from an engine fire as I am told by the PO. Coming Home ![]() Coming Home ![]() Passenger Side toe Board Rust ![]() Driverside Toeboard Rust ![]() First plan was to clean out the interior of all the mouse crap. this picture is with the bench removed and the rubber floor and padding removed. ![]() Buildsheet still stuck in the seat back springs ![]() Second plan of attach was to get rid of the hideous wheels and tires on this thing. Today I bought these original style 8 lug wheels from member leddzepp off craigslist. Should get me by until I figured out the exact plan. ![]() I have pictures of the SPID but they are kind of blurry, couldnt get close enought with my POS digital camera. Thanks, Jerry |
