And so it begins! Ghost's 68 project

Hello every one!

I would like to share my project with all of you guys. This is my first C-10 and loving owning it. I have always wanted one and now I am lucky enough to call myself an owner of my very own 1968 short bed C-10. For now I just plan on getting her running reliably and further down the road I plan on doing air suspension. But first I will be doing an LS3 swap and doing everything else I need to fix on this truck.

Stats on the truck when I bought it new are as;
1968 short bed
5.3 vortex motor from a 03 suburban backed with a 4L60E
Disc brakes all around
Front brakes are the HD version with the 1.25" rotors
Ford 9" rear end w/3.08 gears
Dropped on cut springs
20x8.5 front 20x10 rear boss 338's
Trailing arm set up in the rear
Upholstered bench seat with what appears to be a fresh carpet
Aside from that stock interior
Fake patina paint job (body is in a really good straight shape)
Rears have a mini tub to account occomadate 13.75 rims
Headers going into tru duals with flows (series 50)

There is some issues as with anything else that's 50 years old but I plan on fixing it as time and money permits. For now an actual drop kit and steering rebuild.
