69 GMC Short Stepside

[ramrod7373]

This truck was my father-in-laws, he bought it brand new in 69. He ordered it w/ a 6 banbger, 3 on the tree and factory air. It has been sitting for couple of years. I have some ideas for it, like disk brake front, V8 swap and lowering it down a little. Hope to put a 700r in it for driveability. It is a good start, but there are so many places to get parts for these trucks, what are some of the best places to get parts?
The truck is in my Dad's shop (thank god he has a wood stove in there). Also it helps he lives across the street from me so I can work on it when ever I want. Plus my Old Man was a wrench for 25+ yrs so he has the knowledge and tools to help. He is also semi-retired so he dinks w/ it when I am at work.
I appreciate all the feed back I can get.
Thanks
