Back after a leave of absence

Well its been a fairly long time since I have posted on here but I'm back in the Chevy world with a new project. Its been too long since I have had a real truck on the road and some changes in my life have left me needing a hauler. Last night picked up a 1968 c30 flatbed dually with the original 307 that I found on craigslist, not sure of its history, my guess is it was used for the forest service by the special order green paint in the cab. The cab is is rusted in all the usual places, its a base model truck but she runs and made the 45 mile trip home without a problem after the flatbed I had lined up bailed. The only plans I have for it right now are getting the lighting rewired and a tune up, eventually my plans are a Cummins swap with a NV4500, disk brakes, all the rust repairs (probably at the same time as the Cummins so I can clearance the firewall at the same time) and find a way to get rid of the split rims. I'll try to get some more pics once i find the charging cable for my camera.
