New guy with a 68 C10

Hello guys. Im new to this forum Im 19 years old and I recently traded a 51 Chevy 4 door. for a 68 C10 CST. The guy i got it from. Rebuilt the Engine Trans and Rear end back in April. the Engine is a 350. The transmission is a 400 turbo. Im looking to just fix the body up and go flat black or satin black for bow but i would like to fully restore some day. Thats if i dont trade for another vehicle. lol

Re: New guy with a 68 C10

welcome to the site congrats on picking up the pick up.nice foundation as a starter truck for you to get hooked for life on these things. I normally hang out here and the paint and body section as well as I own a body shop where I rebuild wrecks for a living and muscle and old trucks for fun and have been since 1987. Jim
