New Guy with Pics
Hey guys I"m new around here and figured I'd introduce myself. I am working on a 68 long bed. Here is what I started with
It's a pretty much all original long bed factory a/c 327 with 3 on the tree. The cab is in good shape the bed is all sorts of messed up but hey I only paid 600 for this beast. Also it has the what I've been told is a rare coolant over flow tank ? Well enjoy the pics I have more if you want them. Marc |

Here is the truck after bed removal. Plans are to put an ls1/4l60e and use these little turbo's I have. I actually already have my mock up ls1 mounted I will get new pics tonight.
