Re: 1968 C10 Project "The Twin"
While tearing down the truck, this is where the theme and name for the truck start forming. Along with this 68 C10, I have a 68 Camaro SS/RS that was my first car. My grandfather and I restored the car together. Starting when I was 8 years old, he taught me all the skills needed to restore a classic Chevy.
Since this truck was a 68 as well, decided that it would be cool if they were similar color schemes, same wheels and tires as well as drivetrains. The camaro is a all numbers match small block 4 speed car. While the truck had a small block and truck 4 speed, I had a M21 Muncie 4 speed out of a Chevelle on the shelf that I decided to swap into the truck. So these pics are on kind the first fitment and kind figuring out shifters. The big thing was the truck was a factory high hump. I found a buddy with a low hump floor he bought for the rockers and I bought and cut the low hump out and made a bolt in low hump section to better work with the Muncie 4 speed.
