Hey guys, im 24 and comin from the small town of Alvin. Its south of Houston. Well this will be my 1st project truck, its a 68 swb fleet side. I bought it from a guy in Dallas who was workin on it. Its a decent start for me since the body is good shape, no rust holes only a lil surface rust. The truck is a factory a/c cab,327 engine, turbo 400 tranny and came with the wood floor bed.I dont know the gear ratio yet but i do plan on changing that. I browsed this site before i joined and i can tell there are alot of people on here with alot of great info. So ill be asking alot of questions soon. Thanxs
