YESTERDAY 11/21/09 i received my 68 c10 short-fleet. I gave it up my 1964 Malibu chevelle ss 2 door coupe for this truck. I have many plans for this it is going to be a long term project truck im only 17 and in high school as a senior and money is limited (side job money) and just excited to get it going down the road.

truck is called crooked because some said it is crooked which is not all body lines line up correctly. so now my dad (kevsclassics) said it is crooked.

here are some pics

Welcome to the Forum! Cool truck!

I love those black plates. Looks like its got alot of nice original stuff, the column shifter and the air injection reactor system is still hooked up.

I don't understand the go-low part, but thats just me. Good Luck!

Re: My 68 c10
 

The paint code will tell you if it is. I think that's the correct code for it, it might be 541 though, or 545, I honestly can't remember. Someone else who knows will chime in.

Re: My 68 c10
 

Looks nice anymore pics

Re: My 68 c10
 

It is indeed a 50th that's the right paint code. Congrats!!!!!

Re: My 68 c10
