What to save?
First of all what I want to build is a 68 short fleet with a Pontiac 428 and a th400. I bought a 71 c10 lwb for the suspension and rear($100) and should be picking up my short 68 frame this weekend. My question is what should I keep from this 71? None of the sheetmetal is salvageable, it has regular gauges, and nothing in decent shape? I dont know what is worht keeping around the truck to use on my 68 when I start to assymble?

Any kind of linkage, clips, bolts, brake lines, fuel lines, transmission lines, rubber pieces, calipers, brake shoes, pads, rotors for core charges. wiring also, the wiring may be too long being a long bed, but you can use the clips and connectors
