[68 SHORT-STEP'N]

this is the perfect site for what I am about to attempt. I bought a 68 chevy shortbed stepside last april . got it in SC , blew up in NC , on the way home to VA . owner said 350 was totally rebuilt , it looked and sounded good until about 100 miles heading home and then it was all over but the crying . so I decided , what better time than now to do a total restoration . so far ,a little over halfway into teardown , and cant wait to start stripping the frame . got ahold of a 327 out of a 65 vette and having the machine work done as we speek . also changing the 4:11 rear to a 3:42 for highway crusin . any suggestions on any part of resto would be greatly appreciated .this is my first time so please be gentle . thanks for listening to my story
