67 C20 Build

[MN67C20]

Hello Everyone,
I am new to the site and new to owning a 67 C20. The truck was my grandfathers and has been sitting behind the house for the last 35 years. My brother and I have decided to fix the old girl up. The school I teach at has a hot rod class and they are going to do most of the work to it with a little help from us. The truck is a bone stock 67 C20 with the inline 250 6 and 4 on the flour.

The plan is to turn it into a short bed but keep it a 3/4 ton. It will get a 5.3, 5 speed, air ride and they will repair all the rust. We want to keep it true to what it is but give it modern ride and feel. I hope to keep this build up to date and provide as much information as possible.

I am open to any ideas or thoughts you guys might have related to the build. there is lots to learn and you guys are the experts.

Thanks For looking.
