New project - keeping it in the family

[Aussie Boy]

Hi - I've just bought my father-in-laws 1965 C10 truck for my wife. Her father passed away many years ago and just last year her mother also passed away. Her brother was selling the truck but after hearing of my wife's memories of the truck I couldn't let it go. So now we have a truck in the US waiting for us while we are living in Australia.

I'm after any hints, tips, tricks or ideas about these trucks given that;
1 - I'm Australian have zero clue about them
2 - I've historically been a Blue Oval fan

We have time on our side and are obviously not in a huge rush but anything is appreciated. I know that personal taste comes in to these projects a heap.
