Hopefully there will be paint in a couple of months. I would like to have this truck painted by summer. I can't wait for the bed to come in, it's the last piece of the puzzle to make it look like a truck again.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Ha! I never realized the red truck in your 1st post was yours. I started my build 2 yrs ago and I printed off a lot of trucks off this site and put them up on a set of lockers in my garage for inspiration/motivation. Over time, I've changed some out but your red one has always stayed. Looked super clean.
I love the 67-68 trim on slammed trucks. It's going to look sick with your wheels.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Yeah I have thought about it but with Satin Blue and Satin White combo. I'm not a fan of the original Dark Blue in shiney paint for some reason.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Looking good!
I know all to well about outfitting the garage. I swear I'm going to have more time and money in tools, benches and garage stuff then I will the truck build. Heck since owning the two trucks in the past 6 months I've rearranged the garage at least a dozen times.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
The good thing about collecting tools and garage stuff is that you'll be able to use them again on other projects. Sometimes projects that aren't truck/car related too. I love tools almost as much as classics!
It's nice to see parts coming in. Can't wait to see the bed together with those shiny wheels!

Thanks Eric, I saw a lot of guys on here using the Mar-K trim. Definitely is quality stuff. Thanks Tom, if I don't find a tailgate by the end of April after all the swap meets then I'll just order a new one.

Nice parts Keith. I notice the new air compressor and air hoses, looks like your ready to tackle the paint now.
