'68 Chevy Stepside

I'm nearing the finish line so I thought I'd post some pics of the build.
Man, there sure are a lot of parts on a truck!

Re: '68 Chevy Stepside

Your truck looks great! I really like the color combo. What color interior? And what are the suspension/tire and wheel specs?

Re: '68 Chevy Stepside

I just got the interior pieces back from Connor Sweet (member). He did my dash pad, door panels, visors and console. The man is great at his craft.

Here are more pics of the build. I'll update them as I go. I hope to have this thing on the road by the end of September.

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.
