Hey guys whats up? I just purchased a 1968 GMC fleetside longbox, 3 on the tree, with a 350, 98,000 Orig. Miles. Runs good, coils and drums all around. Came with a driver door, windows need to switched over, and it came with 2 good fenders. Although the ones on the truck are good. Inner fenders are good. Box has one bad spot along the passenger fender. Driver side rocker cancerious, along with part of the floor along the door sill driver side. To add to the list is both outer cab corners. Besides that its a running and complete. I paid 800$ through a friend. I thought that was a good price.
Qustion one - what have i gotten myself into? cab wise. Im not the best welder, but i do see factory replacement corners, rockers etc. Am i just better off searching for a cab? i dont mind the work, but im no pro, willing to learn tho. Question two - I caught the jist of a few little tricks with the trucks, ie. Seats from late model chevy's. What about power steering? can u adapt other chevy PS to a 68? disc brakes/ columns? Any input for this newbie would be great!! thnx Just finished a mustang and came across this deal, i couldnt say no after a little research. Skot |
