I want to do as much of the restoration as I can myself and do it right the first time.
Thanks!

How to restore your Chevrolet pickup by Tom Brownwell is a very good book if you are working on a Chevrolet.
Hope this helps.

Without the service manual, I would have been lost. Also, check in here for info as well. I am amazed at what is known amongst all the members here. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 22 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 22 | Thanks guys.
