68 build

[Scott68-93-97]

Dont know the excact direction I'm going to take this project yet I bought the truck in May 06' and drove it home for $1500. It had a 350 basically stock with edelbrock intake and carb, a 700r4, tube upper and lower A-arms,lowering spings on all 4 corners, and the smothie cap rally rims (chrome). Interior had a 89 chevy bench seat 60/40 and grant steering wheel. The motor started ticking on the way home which I wasn't sure what to expect with a truck that had not ran in 2 years before we attemped to fire it when I purchased it. It was found to be a rocker stud pulling out I tightend it and it came loose again, so I have some 487x heads off a 70' LT/1 that I ported and gasket matched along with brass valve guides new hardened exhaust seats and a 3 angle valve job, along with re surfacing the valves, I also installed edelbrock 110 lb. spings. So that will be my fix for that problem while in there I plan to install a proven cam from a previos build on my old Malibu which is a comp cams x-treme energy 268xeh. For the rest of the truck I have been removing paint to find rust and previous repairs so far not to bad most of the damage was in the front driver side which included an unfixable hood, and a flatened front grille which i spent 15 hours fixing before my roomate hit it in the driveway during a garage cleaning session so in went another 10 hours of cutting , heating, welding, hammer and dolly and now I'm still not happy with it so its a good thing tripro auto is going to be selling those soon. My plan for now is to get it a reliable driver until i finish my 97' which has a long way to go(I'll have a build thread on that shortly) A couple other things I did was replaced all the accesories brand new with new brackets and pulleys from Chevrolet and converted to the internal regulated alt., a four core radiator and a clutch fan off a camaro. So heres so pics trucks a little on the dirty side right now but tell me what you guys think.

Thanks
