1969 C10 project

So I'm building a 4x4 shortbox right now (http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=728086) but I've decided to start another truck because two unfinished trucks is the smart thing to do!

So the story here is I bought this long box frame. Previous owner did a bit of work, lowered it and converted it to 5 bolt. I then found a short step side bed, and a rust free cab and front clip for a donor. And I really mean rust free, cab is pristine condition with original paint. Don't have any pics right now, but I'll get some.

Its going to be a Frankenstein truck. So cutting the frame to make it a short bed doesn't bother me. I went ahead and got the Brothers conversion kit and did that last weekend. Sure is super easy with just a rolling frame!

This is not going to be a show truck, just want a nice, clean looking, dependable truck to use as my daily driver in the summer months. Main plans for it so far:

- clean up frame and paint it
- rear mounted fuel tank
- 18" wheels
- 350 with 700r4. Going to be carbed, maybe down the road add fitech or something similar

Should be fun!
