Ole 68 Longhorn

[Outnumbered]

I have been working on this for the last 6 months. My FIL purchased it new in 68 and used it strictly for hauling cattle and farming. Ole 250cid 6 with 3 on the tree whit a whopping 64k miles. Fun project for an old retired guy.

Very nice! Well done too, now it needs a 383 Stroker in it and all stock look.

I learned to drive a 1968 C20 when I was 7, used it for all the ranch duties.
It was a custom factory build that the guy that ordered it turned it down when it showed up at the dealership because it didn't have a couple of the features that he wanted on it.
dealership sold it for cheap to get rid of it.
V8 327 4 speed that truck was always super peppy.

In my imagination, a 7 y.o. with V8 327 under the pedal, leads me to think that there could be some interesting stories lurking there... care to share with us?

Oh there was quite a few over the years.
Some of my antics could still have people looking for me!
And yes I got myself in some serious dodo!
