Ready to freshen up the C-20.

[Barnfind46]

I have been a member for a while but this is my first post.I appreciate all the info and helpful members on the forum. I have a 68' C-20 that I have had for 12 years.The truck was bought new in Delta Junction,Alaska so it has no A/C.It was registered there until 1998. I'm not sure how it ended up in north Texas but I bought it in 2004 for $2,000. It is a factory automatic truck so the rear end must have been changed because the engine runs at 4500 rpm at 55 mph.My plans are to change the engine and transmission.Later I will do a rear end change to make it more highway friendly. This truck has almost no rust so I am way ahead of the game.This will be a budget build but I will do body and paint.I am a 30 year veteran in the body shop.Planning on this being a working truck,not afraid to put it on the homestead.
