My 1968 Chevy C-10

I got this for free! The previous owner did a pretty good job painting it flat black and redoing the truck bed in wood. Since that effort, though, some things have rusted through, the body mounts are gone, and the wooden truck bed is rotting slightly.
In the truck bed is the original head with a smaller carb because the two were cast together, and the previous owner had wanted to put on a larger intake. He put on what looks like a Holley 600, and he also welded on dumps that are intended to come out of the hood. It's as very interesting setup. I hope to sell the carb and other pieces and put in some other sort of drivetrain.
The 5-speed trans is great, though. It's from an early 90s S-10. The PO cut off the stick shifter and welded on a huge metal rod for extra awesomeness. I aim to change that too, though.
You may recall this from a Craigslist personal ad I had put up 6 years ago. Since it gets flagged every time I post it, I have archived it here:

Before having it towed, I put the hood back on. It's almost back together. I've been trying to consider working on it soon.
