'63 from California to Minnesota, the fun begins...

[G-Money]

After a few weeks of trading favors and and dozen calls my '63 has left the Eureka state and found it's wheels resting here in Minnesota. A heck of a trip considering it's wheels havnt moved for the last 34 years. It's a rock solid truck with a few dents here and there and just one small patch of rust on the lower front corner of the drivers door.

My donor truck was waiting in the driveway for it's arrival. I know the 350 and the auto along with the front crossmember are going in along with the power steering (with a little help of one of the members here.)

I have a couple of questions, if I could get a little help that would be great.
> Will the column from my 71 donor fit and if so are there any tips/tricks ?
>The truck is a GMC should I attempt swapping the rear to leaf springs or go a different route ?
> I was told this truck was ordered new for Chevron oil company ( thats who I got it from) has anyone seen this paint scheme, it sure looks factory ?

Thanks in advance - G
