It starts with the core support and ends???

Well I have decide to start my rebuild instead of just doing a few smaller projects and end with a bigger one. I am now just going to have one really big project and it starts with my core support. I took one out of my now crushed 67 stepside (big oak tree got it) had it sandblasted and now painting it. It looks really good for rattle cans and I will be very proud to display it in my truck. It has 3 coats of primer with some light sanding and 3 coats of white and soon to have the final 2 coats of clear. I could not be happier with it. In just about a week or two I will have everything in place and then the tear down will start.
This will include a conversion from a turbo 350 to a hydraulic clutch T-56, drop spindle 5 lug front disk brakes, vintage sure fit ac package, Painless 18 circuit wiring harness, replace the sliding back glass to a regular glass, removal of a sunroof, insulate and soundproofing of the cab. This is a few things I know I want to do but more may pop up as head down that road. Not sure how long this thread will end up being or how long as far as that goes so everyone wish me luck.
