Project.... Rust Bucket Money Grabber?

Hello all. New to the forum on this name. I've been prowling around for quite a while now, lots of amazing info. Anyway. Let me start with saying I'm only 19 years old and I'm learning as I go.

Let me give you a brief history of my trucks.
I stared off with my first truck being a 1986 C10 LWB. This thing was cheap and had a decent paint job on it. (With the occasional bug still stuck in the paint) I loved my Chevy and got hooked on these trucks, even though mine would often leave me stranded. I traded this truck a little over a year after I got it and soon would regret letting it go.

My second C10 was a 1964 C10 LWB (Do you see a trend here?). This thing was ruuuuuuusty. But, I got it for a decent price and thought I could make a decent little project out of it. Well, I soon realized I could not be in high school and have a job, and still try to work on this truck. I sold this truck and also soon regretted it.

Now, I'm out of high school and decided I wanted another project. I would always browse Craigslist even when I couldn't afford something. A little while ago I stumbled upon this post titled "chevy truck" and of course it caught my eye. I soon saw a 1967 C20 LWB with an original straight 6 250 and three on the tree. I had never seen a restored C20 in person, and seeing as how this was my favorite year, I had to jump on the deal. The guy was asking $1,500 and I ended up getting it for $1,200. Some may say I paid too much, but I think I got a decent deal. And I HAD to have this truck, so I was happy with my purchase.
And now on to the pictures...

*I'll keep updating this post with more pictures as I'm slowing rebuilding this truck. Between working 2 jobs and being enrolled full time in college, I try to find any time I can to work on it.
