[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 2875622, member: 4319"] Random thoughts: 1. Man after my own heart. My first ride was a '65 longbed fleetside, 283,2 barrel, 3 on the tree. Became a built 283,4bbl TH350. $1,000 bucks from the second owner when I was 14. Still have it and still drive it. 2. Go Early Classic Enterprises on the disc conversion. Why hassle? With a frame and a cab you can build these trucks through the mail. LMC truck is your friend. Why body swap? 63-72 frames are pretty modern and all kinds of drivetrains have been put in them. 3. 10 second strip beast that cruises all day is a tall order for a C-10. Power is easy. Getting it to hook is another. Also...heavy. 12-13 second truck seems more realistic. 4. 67-72chevytrucks.com is a great resource for 60-66 rigs too. 5. There's an Oklahoma FB group for 60-66 Chevs that has parts listings. CL has junk all the time too. 6. Please don't go bigger than 17s on it. Please. 7. Here's my junk. Needs a lot of time and money, but I'd drive it anywhere without fear of it breaking down. Hasn't left me stranded since 2004. Straight truck, minimal rust issues.
