1975 Chevy's

[SRH916]

Ok. First off, I'm new to the forum, and i don't have my own truck yet. I've been looking around for a project and have found two that look like good canidates.

I'm just looking for some oppinions here. and maybe some thoughts of where to go once i purchase one of them.

I have found a 1975 chevy C-10 longbed with a sb350 and a turbo400, it looks basically stock, except for a camper on the back that i would pull off. Its in good shape, and has been kept in really good condition.

I have also found a chevy that is almost the complete opposite. It is also a 1975 chevy c-10 shortbed stepside, but it is pieced to gether from alot of parts from junk yards. its all primered, body is done. the best part is that it packs a 454 Rat pulled out of a chevelle ss, and a turbo400, the stock differential(i have no idea what it is gear wise, so any ideas of what it could be is helpfull[the guy does have some 4.11s , but the top end speed would be about 80, even if i could get to there in about 2seconds]). but this truck is running 12's at the strip.

Im not sure whether i should go for a restored truck, or go for a resto-mod/drag truck.

I just got bored and decided to post something since i need some more oppinions of this. thanks for the help, and i will try to get some pics up soon.
thanks guys
