Yet another boring stock project underway
68 Suburban 1/2 ton 2wd, 3 row seating, 4:11 posi - Not a 50th
 Was: 307 4 speed, Power drums, manual steering Soon to be: 250 I6, 3 speed column shift (yes on the column), power drums, power steering, with 6 lug slots. The 'six" will be dressed out with correct PS pump/brackets/pulleys, oil bath air cleaner to accomodate the brake booster, and HEI. The 250 and 3 speed manual is a 45K mile unit out of a 67. The front end is torn down for new ball joints, tie rods, etc. It will remain 6 lug drums and lowering it will never be an option.

Thanks David
Did you notice the correct Jr West Coast mirrors? It was optioned with those from the factory, yet had lost them at some point  I did upgrade the radio. It's got a vintageaftermarket AM/FM/8 track, that fits in the stock opening

. I do have the correct 68 dog dish caps and points system however... Paint? Why do that? I "overrestored" one, never again. If they are in my stable they get used as trucks. I'm not creating a museum here

I have West Coast Jr mirrors on my truck also. The top acorn nut seems too close to the drip rail on mine (almost touching). What amount of clearance do you have CPNE?

To be REALLY stock you'll need the smog pump! Yes?
From what I've read/understand 68 1/2 tons with manual transmission had them. I have seen one 3-speed/250 68 truck with the factory smog pump set up on it around here.

Sounds like fun. I am thinking about snatching the 350/350 out of mine and replacing it with a 250 and 3 speed before I let my boy have it. That way I don't have to worry about him speeding all over the place!
