68 stepper from ARGENTINA

Well after much thought its time to start my build thread......I'm from Argentina, so please be patience with my english.

My truck is a 1968 C10 that came originally with a inline 6. In Argentina this was the only available engine, sadly no V8 here.

We've started this project a year ago with the idea to build a patina truck. Things escalated quickly as you will see in the photographs. I've changed three engines since we've started (283-327-350), two transmissions (actual th400), and countless other things.

The final idea (I hope) is to build a bagged mild pro street. 17" wheels but with high wall tires. Is you will see in the pictures I will pursue the theme but it won't be 100% accurate.

We've built a chasis from scratch, we are using air ride schokwaves, accuair management, willwood brakes, etc. The powerplant it's a stock sbc 350 with edelbrock dual carb intake, msd distributor, etc.

Here are some photos of the process, I hope you enjoy the project as much as I do. I want to here you're comments!!
