I'm pleased to be a member of the site, and wanted to share some photos of the '68 Chevy C/10 I just purchased. This one is out of Eastern Oregon with recent restoration and a complete rebuild of the original 327 back in 2007. The exterior and interior are well done. Paint I guess you could say is decent - definitely not a high quality, sanded the the metal, multi-thousand dollar paint job, but it looks really good! the truck runs very strong! Everything is pretty much gone through or new.

I've had the bug to get one from this era, after previously owning both a '65 and '66 Chevy 1/2 tons. Looking forward to using the forum for everyday knowledge and being able to see what everyone else owns and is restoring!

I remember the day you brought that home, just like it was yester...um, er, 3 days ago, lol. You've got me thinking about getting started on my GMC project. Gotta get the other project done first though. Congrats on the truck!

Re: New member here from Washington

and Welcome, from Colorado! Love the license plate. Not too crazy about the wheels. Kind of doesn't matter, as long as you're happy with them!

Thanks for the welcome everyone. Looking forward to interacting with you all. Definitely agree about the wheels - someday I'll change to something I like more.

I saw this truck on craigslist awhile back. Did you buy or are you the seller? Perfect stance I had emailed the guy (maybe it was you) said it had a 6/8 static drop

Re: New member here from Washington

We should indeed, Roger71SWB. Your truck is awesome! It could be 67ctener, but he didn't mention it. I'm the buyer and this truck was sold to me in Fruitland, ID. I agree and really like the stance too.
