Nice project! Looks to be a 68. I don't see an indentation on the center horizontal bar of the grille like the 69's have. What are your plans for the truck? That paint would come right around with a quick cut and buff.

I may get a hood, grille, front bumper, and driver fender. If it was straight I wouldn't worry with it. Wash it with some comet and wipe it down with some oil and go with it....It will be awhile though before I mess with the body. Too many irons in hire. I couldn't pass on the price though...
