Re: 68 pro touring, auto cross c10 (mid life crisis)
I just read though your whole thread and now you owe me a new pair of underwear. LOL. I have worked on a NASCAR Nextel Cup team, so I genuinely appreciate what you are doing. I really look forward to seeing this finished because you are doing something that I want to do to my '71. Thank you.

Re: 68 pro touring, auto cross c10 (mid life crisis)
Glen....you could put the truck parts up for sale with prices over in the parts forum with a disclaimer that you want to sell specific big items first before a complete part out of other things....OR you can put it up for sale as a complete project over in the "trucks for sale" area

Wow, what a waste of 16 pages... NO IT'S NOT!!! Whether you discard the project or continue/finish it one thing holds true, we all learned so much and got to witnesses your mind work in unconventional ways and you execute them with true craftsmanship. That is priceless. Thanks for the free knowledge!

So I'm not sure what the difference is. I would be willing to bet your fit and finish is quite a bit better than mine though. I probably cut corners a few places or something to stay away from the extensive work you did. Mine fit, and I don't think I did a "bad job", but I highly doubt my finished product is half as nice as yours ended up. Glad you're keeping most of this project around, I am looking forward to the finished product!

Wish I had the money to buy that steering wheel from you. I love the smaller diameter with the 67-68 look.
