Intro
Hello, Im a 44 year old grandfather, I just bought a 68 C20 long narrow bed, kinda funky cool lookin. Its a clean old truck with 400sb/t400, eaton rear. I havent decided what direction this truck will take, Im leaning towards just cherrying it out and useing it for my daily driver. The rearend definately has to go! I like your board and have been lurking for awhile. A lot of my questions have already been answered but Im sure Ill have more as time goes by. Thank you.
