Newbe: New project
I was searching on the internet for ideas and came across this board!
Looks like a good place with good information.

I am 21 years old and go to school in AR.
I bought a 68 C10 Longbed truck this week and plan to swap a 4x4 chassis from a donor 68 4x4 C10. I bought the truck at an auction this week for $150
I am looking to update with a new 5.3L vortec and 4l60e trans.

I also have a 68 camaro that I am restoring.

Re: Newbe: New project
Welcome from West Tennessee. You have found a gold mine of information and experience that money can't buy. First thing is read and understand all the rules here and your stay will be a pleasant one. I checked your photo bucket link and man that is one sweet camaro. If you plan to build your trucks to that level I can't wait to see them. If you get a chance check mine out as well. New stuff showing up all the time. Good luck and keep us posted.
