1968 parts truck.....runs like a champ - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought this parts truck (with a title) on ebay about 9 months ago. Didnt have any plans for it...just picked it up because it was cheap ($230)and it had a good 68 front clip. Well, after dragging it around the yard for most of the summer we pulled it out today to play with it. Put a battery in it, sprayed a little gas in the carb., and it fired up and we drove it arround the neighborhood. It ran and idles like a champ. What a piece of luck. Seems to be a tight little truck.....
