Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Thanks Buck, I almost passed out when I started adding everything up and realized how much money I still have to put into this truck
I looked it up Rus, it is about a 12 hour ride from Jersey, maybe I can make it a weekend road trip

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Looking good Keith. I'm still debating on getting new bedsides now or rocking my crappy ones for this year until I get some other things straightened out. But the bed floor and everything tends to hinge on the bedsides. So I am at a crossroads. I guess go big or go home huh?

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Great looking parts you've gotten lately. Good idea on the bed I think you'll be happy with new. And can't go wrong with the wood

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Keith, the only thing I've ran into with the SoKy bed is the tailgate rubs the rear of the bed floor when you open and close it. We are going to slot the hinges a little to gain some clearance. Just a little room will keep from skinning the paint when it's opened. Other than that, the buddy doing the painting was very happy with the fit.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Thanks for the update on the tailgate Jason, be sure to post up some pics on your build of what you do to get the tailgate to fit correctly. Doesn't sound like it will be hard to fix though.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Huge day today, after 4 years of my truck taking up space in my brothers garage it is finally home in my garage. It's on now
All nestled in her new home for good I was worried about having room for in my garage to work on it but after I got it in there I realized I have plenty of room
