Gettin a new '68 tomorrow!

[danheit]

So I am coming over to the dark side. I have been on the lookout for a decent c10 project for a while now, in my price range (as close to free as possible!) So, I found a guy about 4 hours from me that has a 68 C10 rolling chassis with a very solid cab, no bed or front clip (or drivetrain) that is willing to trade me for my '55 3100 truck body on the 90 chassis that I was working on. Best part is that he is delivering it to me! So, tomorrow I will be removing one project from my garage, and replacing it with another (less complete) one. I pulled my 350/700R4 exhaust and driveshaft from the 55 today, and got his truck all ready for the trailer and to travel. I am hoping that I can get by pretty easily with the components I already have to get his truck on the road soon. Thankfully there is a junk yard right across the highway from me that has 5 72 C10's in it. All have rotted bodies and radiator core supports, but I should be able to find a repairable support, and piece together a front clip. I would love to find 68 sheet metal, but the 72 stuff is readily available, and I am pretty sure I can get a decent price on it all. No beds though. Thinking of going the wood flatbed route until I can find a decent enough fleetside bed (the 68 was originally a step though). Anyways, on to pics....










Little Rot around the cab mount and I'm sure there's more I'm not aware of just yet...







Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but judging from the picture, this is a power steering and front disc brake truck, right? I say that based off what appears to be a power steering gear box (I believe I can see the hose inlets) and there is a brake prop valve, usually indicating front disc and rear drums....

Aaaaaaand, the lovely interior



Here's what he's getting



No windshield, no drivetrain, just the full body on the 90 rolling chassis.
