Re: 68 workhorse
like we talked about you will need :
67-8 glove box emblem cst emblems for the dors you can get the 69 72 blazer cst emblems to full floor carpet buddy buckets would be more deluxe... cst full wheel covers and theres more stuff but those are the basic upgrades on a cst compered to a custom cab truck oh and you need a passenger inner fender well and some trim... nice you should install the grill trim! |

Re: 68 workhorse
its up and running runs fine. i replaced the front tire with a spare one i had, not the same size as the others 5 less on the sidewall.
some of the lights stay on so i have to disconnect the neg when not using. im also having an issue with the signals working when they feel like it. temp gauge dont work. i'll have to check that.

Re: 68 workhorse

i stll need to find out what this goes to. (black wire) this red wire too, its just there. when i was inside the engine bay i broke this i noticed that the fender lights are empty sockets, there arent even wires for lights.
