Thanks John, I feel like I should be able to make some good progress on it over the next couple of months.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Today I started to pull my frame apart so I can be ready to install my dropmembers when they come in. I pulled off my rear sway bar, ece track bar & airbags. Took the exhaust off from the headers back and also took off my fuel and brake lines. The only thing left to do is pull the motor/trans, take out the gas tank, take of the trailing arms and shocks. Didn't take any pictures, figured nobody needs to see disassembly

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Lol or somebody who can't make up his mind. This is what my wife thinks lol. Today she goes "why do you agonize so much over what color to paint it", she was like "you have changed your mind a thousand times and it has been driving you crazy for years"

I agree with Zoomin, I feel it is a sign of striving for perfection.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Got my Intro Retro's in today. Hopefully this is the last set of wheels I buy for this truck for a long time. My wife already told me, "you better keep these"

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Thanks guys, I'm am very happy with them. I knew they would be nice but when I opened the boxes I was luck these are awesome. I think I have finally made the right choice. Plus my wife already told me no more wheel changes until after the truck is done and on the road

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
If you like them now, just wait till you see them on your chassis. Kyle has a set that I e seen in person and those will knock your eyes out. Great choice.
