Project "Rolling Rock"

[Gus350]

I lost my father this past summer due to his struggles with cancer and I decided to dedicate this build to him. My father taught me the deference between right and wrong honesty and hard work. I grew up a meager lifestyle in a rural community in the 70's and early 80's an era where everyone seemed to have a hotrod. I was never fortunate enought to have a hotrod because of school and money but now some things have changed and i want what couldn't have then so I purchased a 68 swb c 10 and let the journey begin.

This will be my first frame off rebuild so I have spent countless hours on this forum researching which way to go only to change direction a 1000 times. The hardest thing was to pick a style and choosing a color. So basicially this truck will show influences of some great builders from this forum N2billit- Dino -Delmo-SuperFly-C10 King-lolife99-Hot trux and many many more.

So with help from this forum and some close friends maybe we can get this thing done someday. I will add to the list of things I want to get done as time allows(and Money haha).

Powder coat frame (done)
Porterbuilt inch forward tubular arms (done)

My first time doing break lines I tried to hide them the best I could. What is everybody's opinion will this style work okay and function properly ?
