1968 C20 Resto
Well I was posting some pics of my brakes in the other thread and figured I'd post some pics of the truck too. It's pretty solid, and is going to be a daily driver. Basically I'm just fixing what needs fixed and painting it so it will look good out on the road, but I'm not making a show car out of it. The chassis is awaiting a coat of POR15. The cab, and eventually the bed, has a coat of POR15 on the lower foot of all the panels to (hopefully) keep it from rusting out in the weather. The cab is very straight and only needed a couple spots welded up. The bed is a little worse, though also not bad. It's awaiting rear wheel arches on both sides, and maybe some more metal here and there. I hope to have it finished in a month or so. It's very original and will be restored stock, though I might keep the chrome wheels. It's powered by the original 327.
Here's the truck when I bought it:   Now under restoration (yes, I know the garage is cluttered!):
