Ill try to list all the changes here before the big dump of photos and a break down of the past year or so.

The overall goal was to get the truck as low as possible but still have a very usable truck. I didnt want to lose my entire bed to a deep step notch. I want this to be a crusier but I can still haul **** around. 60s style and learn as much as I can thru the process.

Suspension is a Frankenstein of a lot of parts. When I started I was on a pretty limited budget and over time the budget got better and I could afford more high end parts.


Pancaked stock crossmember
Cupped lower control arms
Porterbuilt front shock relocators left over from phase 1 build
No Limit rack and pinion
Rear is a combo of a weld in step notch and an Ekstensive 2 link kit.
GSI center crossmember and trans mount crossmember
ididit column
Accu Air CVT with E level... rip
Boyd tank
Aeromotive in tank pump
Chevy Performance Crate 350 dressed to look like a 327
Holley Sniper EFI and ignition/dist



The first piece of the puzzle was to really get going on the front crossmember. I was fortunate enough to have a buddy with a 68 C10 who bought a full Porterbuilt suspension so he hooked me up with his crossmember as the test rat for my welding and pancake attempt.

The 68 as I got it, time to get busy.
