Daily Driver '65 LWB

Since a recent "inventory reduction sale" I have been without a daily driver/shop truck. My machine shop guy had this one sitting out back, so we struck a deal. Brought it home Saturday 2/9.
Seems very solid, cab mounts/floor all in good shape. exterior body not too bad, no plans on any changes for now.
Did some mild clean up underhood, a quick coat of rattle black and in with the engine- a 1991 Chev TBI 305. Installing a TH350C lock up trans. Using parts I had laying around. Keeping fuel injection since I had and extra painless harness. Converting original sender to in tank pump.
Suspension and brakes have already been done. I will upgrade to PS and a dual master cyl.
Project goal -- 4 weeks(mostly evenings and weekends) and around $1500 total investment.
