My New 1968 Chevy Truck C10 - Long Bed

I recently just purchased a 1968 Chevy Truck C10 two weeks ago. I am doing a full restoration from frame off to the body. Going to lower the truck also. Putting a small block engine in. Still deciding on color but as how now I've decided on doing a root beer metallic color on the bottom with the top of the cab being a carmel color and then a cream pinstripe.

This week my dad and I just finished putting in the lower passenger side rocker panels and they fit excellent!!!

Updates on the progress of the truck will be coming soon.

Re: My New 1968 Chevy Truck C10 - Long Bed

Thanks everyone and will keep all of you up to date. The rockers fit excellent and my dad and uncle manufacturer classic cars & truck parts and the rocker panels are from a company they buy from. My family business is called Southwest Reproductions in Surprise, AZ.

Here is the colors that I am looking at from this link. If you scroll down its called custom root beer paint. http://www.jockeyjournal.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=17476

If you all are in need of some rocker panels call my family business at 623-975-2739. These rocker panels fit great.

This video helped my dad and I out on installing the rockers.
