65 c10 short bed daily driver budget build

[jserrato714]

Well let me start off by saying that it's good to be back on here. It's been a while since I have had a project Chevy. I bought this shorty this past Sunday in the I.E So Cal. Drove her home and began by removing the front clip and worked my way to the motor and granny shifting 4 speed. Today I removed the engine and trans for a light rebuild on that 327 SBC. After much thought I have decided to covert to auto tranny for some daily crusing . Turbo 350 or t400. This is a original truck inside an out. I plan on adding power steering, power front disc brakes , and a nice static drop. On the paint the plan is to rub some gibbs oil after cleaning to try and preserve the original # 512 GM paint . (Rare)Maybe some flat clear..feed back welcomed..

I will upload pics as I go.
