Looks great!! I'd drop that bad boy just a little and lose the eyebrows (JMO) and it would be perfect! Love the white side out BFG's!

Re: My Project: 1968 Model
 

It is going to get a 1" front drop and 2" rear drop, the eyebrows, I haven't made up my mind on them yet... but thanks! :D

Re: My Project: 1968 Model
 

That will look good. My '69 had about the same stance, and that's how much mine actually dropped with springs. Well, it actually dropped 1.5" in the front and about 2.5" in the rear. Here is a before and after shot for comparison. BTW, you can see why I'm bias towards the BFG's;)

Niiiice truck. But I am partial to Blue.

Re: My Project: 1968 Model

Yea lots done... just not time to really take pics and post and everything... had some things come up...

Re: My Project: 1968 Model
 

just found this build, nice truck and great history. I like all the front trim, that's what mine has.

Re: My Project: 1968 Model
 

I think your Grandad would be proud of the job you did on his truck. it looks great!

Re: My Project: 1968 Model
 

Is all your front nose trim aftermarket?

Re: My Project: 1968 Model
 

Love the front end of these trucks period... and thanks :D

Thanks a lot... I think he would have no problem in riding in it... :D

The trim around the grill openings is GM but its from the 80s so it has been replaced... but yes most is aftermarket... truck didn't have too much to salvage
