I like the idea of keeping it the way it is and USING it. Some people get a 90's S10 or toyota or 80's/90's pickup and use that as their "Beater" Why spend a couple grand on one of those when you can have a 67-72 and slowly fix it the way you like and it will grow in value...

I am looking for a "beater/work truck" right now and plan to do similar (Lower, good drivetrain, and no/cheap paint) I would love to find one in your trucks' condition for a deal but most I find need some paint so I'm planning a satin black for now unless I luck out.
