Here is my attempt at a build thread. The truck is a 1968 Chevy LWB, and I am rebuilding the suspension, motor, switching transmissions, and adding disc brakes. This is my Senior Project for high school.



Here are some pics of when I first brought it home. The blue one is my '62 that I wrecked, being parted out.







































Truck came with a crusty 350 and the original 3 speed on the column. The linkage was mostly broken so I had an interesting time getting it from Battle Ground WA. to my house in Oregon. The motor leaked oil like a champ, so I tore it down hoping it was the front main seal.









I fixed that and it still leaked like a seive. I found a fairly straight tailgate on craigslist for cheap and brought it home and rattlecan primered it.














Next step was to remove the lame rear bumper and stickers from the back window.
