1968 SWB 2WD Fleet build "lost time"
Here is my newly aquired 68 SWB 2wd fleet. I picked the name lost time only because I had a 70 that I sold in 2006 that had counless hours in it,if I had not of been dumb and sold it it would have been long finished by now. So I have "lost" two years time that could have been spent on my love for trucks.
So far I have an LS6 BBC 454 crate motor sitting in the garage as well as an ART ride pro system. Here are pics from the day i brought it home:

Re: 1968 SWB 2WD Fleet build "lost time"
Today I took it down to the frame and found only a couple little things that needed to be cleaned upbefore I paint it.
I also ordered RE7's for all four corners as well as front plates and cups from Sucide Doors. Ordered POR-15 to paint the frame/axle housing/control arms and P/S box Lastly ordered Drop spindles, front end rebuild kit, adjustable track bar and shock relocators from CPP. The truck already has a 71 front cross member and suspension on it. Hopefully by the time the POR gets here the frame will be cleaned up, blasted and ready to paint.

Looks to be a good solid truck to start with.

This sounds like it will be a sweet truck in the end. Keep us posted and keep those pics coming!
