Nice start on the truck. I like. My first truck was a fugly '63 with the odd ass square box and round cab. I ripped the 292 out and put in a stroked 351W. Ran like a top. Post some photos when you start to get it a little more assembled and painted.

Now I'm missing my first truck, 66 with a 390. Great truck! Looking sharp, can't wait to see some more progress.
