My dad scored a '68 shortbed barn find today
Looks to be in real good shape. Still titled to the original owner. I guess about 10 years ago they tried to get it back on the road. Swapped the motor for a 400 small block. Finally got it running and it ran for two minutes and the motor locked up. Turns out a screw from the carb had been dropped in the intake during the build. Made its way into the block and she was done. He lost interest and it's been sitting in a metal hut ever since.
Has California mirrors and a ton of new parts that the guy bought when he was going to build it.
