Project Truck build thread
Finally after looking a few months I found me a decent starter for my truck build. After owning 4 of these prior and seeing the 2008 build that Hotrod Magazine did with a 1974 Chevy swb stepside with an LS6, I've had the bug. I have different things planned to do with it to make it my own. Its a 1975 Chevy swb fleetside or wideside depending on how you want to call it. It has a tired inline 6 in it right now with a 3 on the tree. I plan on building a nice solid small block for the time being then after I get the truck close to where I want it in looks I'll start building a LSX motor for it. If I can find one and figure out how to install it I want to put a T56 in it. The old owner started shaving the factory molding which I will finish. I'll probably getting ahold of nftuatn when I get the body ready for paint. It will be a slow project but will update with all progress, I already have a new grill for it out of a 73 which is recessed and they use to put the motor badge in it.
Thanks for looking and any suggestions will be noted for if I decide to add it.

I have a truck the same body style, but a long bed that I have wanted to do something cool with, but until then it's just the shit brown beater.
