Re: my new 69 chevy looking for ideas.

First... what are your plans for using the truck?

Will it be a "truck" used for hauling?
A truck used for cruising?
etc...

How did you manage to find another truck almost the same color???? Great score, I am not a fan of the rat rodding trucks....Only certain years look good done.

Drop spindles and lowering springs and some older style wheels or some cool hub caps and some good sounding exhaust and drive it everywhere.
