Thanks guys for the props. Yes that is a 68 rs in the background, I got it a little over a year ago and it is next on the agenda, it's pretty much a shell and a basket case right now. I have a 67 rs that is a lot further along than this one. I just picked it up because it was there.

As far as the little black mirrors, I'm not sure where those came from. the donor truck is pretty much the way I purchased it.

Update: we pulled the front end off yesterday and started prepping to pull the engine and tranny. Noticed the pass lower a-frame is hosed, so I will be in the market for one of those. I don't know if you can see in the pics but the PO already changed out the front and rear to 71-72 5 hole suspension. I like the disk brakes way better for a 16 year old. Will try to get pics tonight after work.
