Welcome to the Stovebolt Page Dora. Since so much good advice and encouragement has already been offered I thought I'd list some go to sites for the stuff you'll need.

www.chevyduty.com (name has changed but it will get you there)
www.LMCtruck.com
www.truckandcarshop.com
www.jimcarterchevrolet.com (hope thats correct but if not Google it)

Besides the Shop Manual you may also find How to Restore Your Chevrolet Pickup by Tom Brownell helpful. It's published bt Motorbooks. Got my copy from Amazon.

Good Luck Dora and again, Welcome aboard.
