Its been a while so I figured I'd check back in. Nothing new with the truck, just keep putting miles on it when its nice out. I am considering a few things to upgrade:
Electric wiper motor
Lowering the front ride (might remove a coil or 2, drop springs or air-ride)
Redo the bed wood
Still want to take care of the interior
The big thing I have been focusing on is cleaning up some of the sloppy work I did on the truck to make it more presentable.

A quick update, I haven't been on here in quite some time:
I had a fuel starvation issue so I decided to swap my fuel tank/pump setup. I went with a Tanks Inc 1969 Mustang tank, baffled. It has a Fitech in-tank pump. I am also rerunning my return line and cleaning things up a bit.
I also cut a coil our of the front struts, the truck was riding very rough and there wasn't much give when compressing the suspension. I am considering going with air ride but I'll need to do something with the rear frame (c-notch most likely). I am also considering getting rid of the leaf springs and going with parallel bars.
Any suggestions on a cost effective rear suspension setup?
