Hey all, I am new to this site but not new to forums. I am also a longtime member to www.crownvic.net. I figured that I would juoin a forum with other people that enjoy their trucks as much as I do. Well lets get to buisness, I have a 1967 C10 Fleetside longbox. My Sig explains pretty much all the mods at this time on the truck. I am doing a full ground up resto mod, using damn near all new pars. The frame and all suspension parts are powder coated Hugger orange. The chassis is finally complete and I am just getting started on doing some patch pannel work on a 67 small window cab to replace the old rotted one, along with smoothing out the wood floor box. Long ways to go, but I am about a third done I guess you could say, lots of sweet things to come. I will try to post up some pics, and I will keep every one updated on the progress. I will answer any questions you may have, and I am sure I will have a few questions of my own.
If you were wondering, my screen name is Junkyard Dog because I got the truck from my uncle who was about 2 days away from sending it to the scrapper, kind of the same situation for the donor truck. Oh yeah it was originally a V8 4 speed truck with wood bed.

Here are some pics hopefully they work out. The first pic is shortly after I got it, next is at athe bginning of its reconstruction, next is with the motor and tranny just installed, and last one on the left is a pretty recent pic but there is alot more done since then. The last one on the left is just to show how serious i am about this truck:metal:

Thanks for all the continued warm welcomes Guys and Gals. Man some of you have some very impressive Fleets of trucks and cars, I only have my C10 and my Grand Marquis M71. But as I am finding out that these old trucks are quite an addiction, I am sure mine will have a stable mate some day:)
