glad your makin progress. i can help with the trim locations on the bed. take measure ments off of the passenger bedside and the little peice of the drivers bed side you have

[oldblue1968chevy]

What do yall think would make it look better? Im slowly working on getting a 5 lug axle, then Im going to redo a set of steelies caps/repaint my 5 lug rallys/or run some slots i picked up about a year ago).

Gonna get the trim on and get the bed baby blued'. I thought about putting my old bed back on and putting the orange bedside on the baby blue bed?

I need alot of other misc things too..

radio antenna
missing trim pieces
cab
5 lug axle/rearend
alignment REAL drop coils adj panhard
trim clips
a metal wiper(1) and (1) wiper blade
make/buy guage pannel for 3 aftermarket guages
weld bed holes/pull dents/primer/paint baby blue
finish my lower shock relocators
redo my fuel line(works and is safe all metal) but looks like crap
maybe cut another 1/2 coil (is 1 1/2 cut coils OK?)

And fix a oil leak leak and i have a carb. problem too I think (gonna try to get someone to let me borrow their 'good' carb.) Mine takes forever to warm up and idle right, and always has a bog in it and backfires thru carb every so often).

Thats a LIST!

I have my old bedside to measure off of.

Do you guys think id be better off to put my old bed back on (GM not reproduction) and put the orange bedside on my GM bed? Or just paint the orange bed and leave it on.

I have an extra set of CPP rear shock relocators (new in the box with hardware) SOMEWHERE in my garage- I'll have to look for them soon... They sent me 2 sets

[oldblue1968chevy]

I did the FAQ on how to make your own I just gotta spend about 1 hr with mine and install them.

Put them on the board here and sell them, someone will eat that stuff up. What other extra stuff ya got MikeJ? Ya gonna have that thing on the road, cruise ins start next month down here.

i think you should use every good peice of your old bed and replace the bad with whats on the orange bed.

[oldblue1968chevy]

Well, my baby blue bed is sold! Im gonna try to pick up some blue spraypaint from wallyworld and some other quality rustoleum products to paint my bed. Would get some trim clips but napa/carquest will be closed. I need to go back to talk to the guy locally with the truck with drop spindles and theres a MINT lwb bed/frame/rearend (turned to farm trailer) up the road. Im going to try to drag it home this week.
