New to the board. I figured I would introduce myself, and share a few pics of the new project.

Still researching, to find out what exactly the previous owner(s) did to this thing- aside from the bumper guides, bed rails, etc. I found the boards VIN decoder quite helpful in determining the vehicles origin, and factory setup. That being said, it's not in horrible shape, as a starting point. This is really just something for myself, my teenage son, and my pop to work on together.

Current basic plans:
  • 3/5" or 4/6" drop- we do live in the city, so we have to be careful how low we do go, as roads here are downright awful. I'm leaning towards the 4/6".
  • Upgraded column- I'm 6'3, and my son is 6'4. At current, our legs both hit the stock wheel even when simply transferring from gas to brake.
  • Disc brakes all around
  • Wood Bed
  • Relocate gas tank to rear under-bed

Still debating on paint schemes, wheel/tire combo, engine/trans, etc. The SBC engine runs (roughly), so we'll just start with some basic tests, to see if it is worth sticking with/rebuilding.
