Hey ladies and gents...I just registered as a new member here and wanted to say hello. I'm just finishing a frame off on a '69 Custom 10 short fleet 350, 4-speed. Will most likely be asking advice and for pictures as the cosmetics begin to take place. Gotta tell you, I'm jealous of the majority of members here who seem to be from the north-mid-southwest areas. Seems like finding parts and trucks of this vintage to buy is a piece of cake. I'm in Vermont where spare parts and parts trucks off the side of the road have long since rotted to pieces up here thanks to the road salt we all know and love. In the past year, I think I've seen 3 or 4 67-72's. They're scarcer than hens teeth up here! Hoping to put a head-turner into the northeast! Thanks up front for any info I ask for, and I'll keep you posted of the progress!
