like we talked about you will need :
67-8 glove box emblem
cst emblems for the dors you can get the 69 72 blazer cst emblems to
full floor carpet
buddy buckets would be more deluxe...
cst full wheel covers
and theres more stuff but those are the basic upgrades on a cst compered to a custom cab truck oh and you need a passenger inner fender well:lol: and some trim... nice you should install the grill trim!

Re: 68 workhorse
 
its up and running runs fine. i replaced the front tire with a spare one i had, not the same size as the others 5 less on the sidewall.

some of the lights stay on so i have to disconnect the neg when not using. im also having an issue with the signals working when they feel like it. temp gauge dont work. i'll have to check that.
