Farm fresh 68
So I went from dealing with only 60-66 pickups to having 2 1969s, a 70, and two 71s in a matter of a couple months. Now last week I went to an auction of a farmer who is selling out all of his farm equipment and I went there because this old 68 was there along with a couple early 60s wheat trucks. Well went home with this 68 for 400 bucks and had it running in about 20 minutes.
68 c10 longbed with a 305 in it from what I can tell by the numbers. Runs strong no ac or power brakes or steering but overal a straight and pretty rust free pickup. Soft driver side cab corner and small dime size hole on passenger rear support but pretty solid. Has all the hubcaps inside, currently cleaning the inside out and the fuel tank. Just thought I'd share |

Re: Farm fresh 68
One more. I'll get more tomorrow as I get it cleaned up. Hood is in the bed, took it off so the wind wouldn't catch it and bend it up since it had a bad hood hinge on it

Nice score! Never seen that style of marker light installation. Funky but cool.
