79 custom deluxe "blue goose"

well heres my new 79 custom deluxe its got a 250 three on the tree and 3.08s in the rear. i bought this truck becouse its solidand needed just a little work to make it streetable and it being the same color as my first truck swayed my judgement.





















its a good truck and i like it alot i just haven figgured out how im gonna go with this project. i plan to lower it i just dont know how low i want the truck quite yet and i have no clue what kind of rims and all im gonna use, but ill have that all planed out in time

well in the past 2 weeks ive gotten alot done to the blue goose.
i got it home and washed it, then stripped the interor and fully cleaned it, then i changed all the belts and hoses with new hardware and thormostat(now it runs at the first mark on the temp guage insted of the second mark ),
then i tore down the rear brakes and put new wheel cylenders and new pads and had the drums turned, then i tore down the front brakes yesterday and had the rotors turned and in the near future im gonna buy new pads and new soft lines.

at this point all i lack geting it street legal is replace the back up light switch, finish front brakes drop on a new master cylender, install new motor mounts and rebuild the carb and it should be street legal!

and i would love to hear what yall would do to this truck to, so give me som ideas couse realy i have none rite now
