Project: Hot Rod Hauler (HRH) Build Up

Hi everyone. I am finally getting this page started up, even though I have done some work already. The project will be a slow build up of my '68 C10. This is my second '68 C10 and this is my favorite year Chevy truck.

My plans are fluid and may change as time moves forward. I do have some things set in motion for the build so it won't just be a random pile of parts. I have been collecting parts, pictures and ideas for a little while and have a good general idea of the final result. In the end I want a cool, hot rod style truck that I can use for parts hauling and some towing. That's how I came up with the name, Hot Rod Hauler (HRH for short). Sit back and follow along with the build. Hope you enjoy the ride.

Here are the specs on the truck,

1968 C10 Fleetside Longbed
Replacement Chevy 350 long block
Turbo 400 3 speed transmission
Power Steering and Power Brakes


Okay some pics are in order. Here are some shortly after I bought the truck.

We were given two ears and one mouth for a reason... listen twice as much and speak half as often...
