Thanks for the warm welcome, I will post a pic of my 63. It doesn't have the 17" Torq Thrusts on it anymore, I went back to 15" steel wheels in chrome and black for a more nostalgic look. (For some reason, I have always had to try several sets of wheels and tires on my projects before I settled on the end result.) The '68 has a nice set of stock steelies with hub caps presently, that I like, but a set of 18s sure would look good on it...eventually. I plan to build it in the same style as my '63, sort of a resto-mod. I like the V8, PS, PB, AC, lowered, etc...with a stock(sorta) body/paint.

Under the hood is a little ol' 350 with a mild cam, backed by a 700R4 and 4.11 Posi rear. It isn't a hot rod, but it moves along pretty good.
