I am trying to do as much as I can to the truck while I am interested in it , this one always gets pushed to the back of the line and it ends up just sitting out here ,

Great work! Good doors are getting to be difficult to find.

She will look nice with that Whiteface Grille. That's a '68-only look.
1968 Was Chevrolet's 50th anniversary. A lot of Gold/White trucks were made as Anniversary Editions.

Re: Some work iv'e done to the 68 PATINA truck ,,
I loved mine & would still be driving it if I could have.....
Still have the 68 caps & had the original wheels until a few years ago until I donated them to a young man building a '69 C10 that needed some 6-lug wheels.
