This page will be dedicated to my 1968 Chevrolet C-10 project build.
Background -
I bought this pickup in February 2004. It was a very clean truck, and had been recently painted and a newly upholstered seat. All it needed was a new engine, a lot of new chrome, new wheels and tires, and a REALLY good cleaning. I spent the next three months doing so, and had a very nice driver as a result of my efforts.
Unfortunately, on the fifth time I had driven the truck, I was side-swpied by a drunk driver. What started out as simply pulling the damaged parts off and replacing/repairing those has turned into a three and a half year frame-off restoration! Since I figured this was my one and only chance to make the truck special in it's own way, I set out to create the truck of my dreams.

After the accident, I started to pull off the damaged parts. You could say it got a little out of hand:
And here are some photos of the "rebuilding" process. The end result will have some very subtle body modifications, and complete one-off custom dash, and will be dressed in 2007 C06 Corvette Atomic Orange:
