Re: my new project
First off welcome to the forums. That truck was well worth towing back. Just from the outside it looks to be in pretty good condition. Do you have any particular plans for it? Maybe cleanup and spray the bumpers, wheels and polish the trim for starters? Go through the mechanicals first? Rebuild the brakes and cooling system?
You've come to the right place as this is the most active 67-72 forum on the internet. If you've got a question no doubt it can be answered here. So just jump in and start reading topics.

Re: my new project
well i was thinking of keeping the color deleting all the trim. new bumpers. disk brakes up front and lowering it a bit. its a 350 and a 4 on the floor with granny low, and a 12 bolt 373 rear end. it takes a good pic, but up close its kinda rough.
