Hello, two days ago I snagged an amazing deal on a 1978 LWB C10. She runs great, has the original 350 with only 75,000 miles on her. The frame and drive train are great, but the body and interior need work. So I will be on the look out for a new dash pad, fenders, a hood, and rocker panels.

A little bit of information about myself, I am Active duty soldier stationed in the DC area. I am a hardcore Chevy fan and truly hope to make this pickup something to be proud of.

Thank you for any tips, tricks and help you can give me it is much appreciated.

Which places have the best dash pads? I have heard mixed things about LMC, I checked out brothers trucks and really liked what I saw.
