Thanks!
Truck is dropped. I'm going to take a guess that it's a good 3/4. Rubber measures 15 inches across. Has tub work to fit...and wheels are simply offset. I'm trying to gather all the details from the previous builder.

Re: Pics of my new 68...

Thats nice, Im building a 69 lwb c10 and have a 4/6 drop with 29x15.5s in the back and a narrowed 9 inch with the tubs also. Im trying to see what my truck will sit like from others but havnt gotten a good idea yet but yours looks great. Im converting to 4 wheel disc as well and all stainless lines with new booster/master,wish mine was a BB like yours. Hope mine looks as good as yours one day, well done sir!!

Love your setup. I'm sure it's going to come along beautiful. Again, I'm taking a guess on the drop. Who knows, it might be even lower.
A bit more info that might be useful. Tires are 29x15. As for the drop in the rear... I took a quick measurement from the fender well trim down to the ground (see image). Measures 30 1/2". Let me know if you need additional info.
Thanks again everyone for the great compliments.

Beautiful truck. Are those nitrous solenoids I see under the air filter?
