New Chevy Owner

[dmsteele92831]

I just bought a 1968 Chevy p/u 1/2 ton. It has a rebuilt 350 with a 4 speed tranny with an edelbrock performer intake manifold, edelbrock carb (not sure which one) edelbrock air intake, chrome valve covers, doug thorley headers and dual 2.5" exhaust. Now the best part... $1,800!!! And he gave me another set of CHEVY rims and tires plus 4 additional chrome rims! Plus the body is straight! I've already started some mods. I installed a grant steeing wheel, ordered power steering off an 82' chevy (close ratio) as well as the 82 swaybar. I'll have to post pics within the next couple of days. It runs SUPER strong! I've started into the body work as well, stripping off the old bondo and sanding. I also ordered rocker panels for the front (there are small amounts of rust on the driver side). I'll be posting soon to see if anyone in SoCal wants to cut the old ones off and weld the new ones in (they are from Classicheartbeat.com) I'm willing to pay, but $200 for both seems high to me (cost from most shops). Anyone want to do it for $100 in SoCal? Also if anyone can install power steering I can pay for that too. Just let me know, and I will have pics posted soon!
