68 Anniversary Gold LWB C-20 to SWB C-10

[Grip]

Found this 68 C-20 LWB wood floor, A/C truck about 5 years ago, parked in a field since 96 because of "carb problems". I was able to track down the owner and he agreed to give me first dibs at it as soon as he cleaned the bed out (he was using it as a storage unit). About a month later, he called me and told me it had been vandalized (windshield busted out, headlight rings stolen, headlights and grill trim destroyed, etc.). I had just learned I was losing my job so I found a friend to buy the truck so it wouldn't get away. Winter is coming and I need to get it weather tight so I pulled the plug and brought it home. My dad owns a wrecking yard and is a huge fan of this body style so I'm leaning on him for help. He has a 72 SWB frame with all of the suspension intact to do the 1/2 ton swap. For now, the goal is to drain the fuel tanks, prime the oil and get it running. Later, I want to bag it, with 20's and 22's, LWB to SWB swap, patina paint,etc. I have two kids in college so we will see.
