Introduction and some pics

[Officer68]

I been looking around this nice site you guys have built and Im very impressed so far. I will give some background on me and then throw in some truck pics...

Me: early 30's, married, kids and such. I have always been into the early
60's Impalas and have had 3 so far in life. I have done barn cars and nice garage one owners and inbetween. I Picked up a real nice 66 lwb farm truck over the summer and the bug bit me hard.......I sold it quickly due to its needing a complete frame off. I found a real nice start to what should be a good project: project: Papasmurf

Its an older resto that I have no info on, the usual 350/350 combo, however there is cruise, tilt, ps, cd player, heater and everything electrical works!! Its a lwb 2wd 68 fleetside. When I got it, it had a lund visor over the windshield, it has a rear sliding window and is leaf spring truck with all drum non power brakes. Most of my projects need 12 months of work before being road ready, this came ready to drive. It had homemade tube/pipe bumpers, large trailer type mirrors also. It is as clean underneath as it is topside. The real odd thing so far are the fiberglass inner fenders, they look great and save weight I guess. It also had 20's on it which are not my cup of tea, no offense. I am into the traditional hot rod look and this is my first truck to try that on. I swapped those out for some chrome smoothies and white walls.........heres the pics.... hope to make a little nest for myself on here.
