Thanks y'all! My Grandpa has taken great care of the truck but over the last couple decades it's fall into disrepair. Mostly small things but there has been a lot to do. I do plan on lowering it 5-7 inches. I've assembled the parts just haven't had the opportunity to do the work yet. I'm keeping the original 250 I6 but am either going to go the Clifford Performance 6=8 route or maybe turbo charge it like a couple guys I've seen on the board. Also am going to eventually put a 5 speed in. The Interior is currently being re-painted the original Fawn Metallic. The wheels are wheel Vintques Smoothie, 15x7 & the tires are Coker Classic bias-ply WW, 7.60-15. Here's a ruff photoshop of the truck lowered & a few other pics.
