[FleetsideBill]

Thank the gods their is a place to go for experienced people. with the wisdom of been there DON'T do that!

I just got my dream truck (59 fleetside) and while I have been working on it in my head for years, I have MANY questions.
It will be a journey, not a race (funding is not great) The wife gave me the ok and I bought a truck days later.she was a little taken back LOL

So where do I go (post) to start this project?

[FleetsideBill]

Well here I go, I’m not even sure I’m doing it right but here’s my starting point
I looked for a long time to get a good body finialy got one in California prob paid too much but the wife gave me the go sign
So the “plan” is 59 fleetside LS3 tremic 6 speed C4 front bagged?

Welcome Bill!
You need to go to the 47-59 section to ask questions or the engine/drivetrain area to ask about your intended plans.
One step at a time!
Get her running first, enjoy it, save your coin for your projects.

I got started striping it down and installing the Flat out front kit.

Sweet ride, got to enjoy the old trucks. Make sure you start a build thread in the 47-59 area.
