New 63 stepside

Hi all, I've been playing in the 67-72 Burb sandbox for about 6 or 7 years now. Friday, I brought home a 63 step side with a LS conversion (LY6 & 6spd auto). No plans to redo anything for a while since I got it as a solid driver. Although, there are a few things needing attention. I'm already pleasantly surprised how easy it is to work on when I replaced a window regulator...nice steel door panels, machine screws and things just went in and out no problem . I'm sure I'll have some questions for you all before long...so thank in advance
Bill

Thanks...it seems like a love/hate kind of color.

It’s not the pertest but it is decent. It came with carpet but I think I’d like vinyl instead. The bench is a little saggy on the driver side.
