Default 1964 GMC Model 1002 build journal

Thought I would start a build journal for my newly acquired truck. Not sure the direction it is going to take but here are a couple pictures of the before.
Truck is a long bed with factory 305E engine and SM420 transmission and Dana/spicer44 rear end, power steering.
Truck had been painted blue and is now black, the original color was light green. It is wearing Ford hubcaps.
I know I want to retain the Big block 6 cylinder sm 420 transmission.The rotted out bed wood was covered with some sheet metal. First order of business is to give the engine a service: ie oil change then tune up and adjust the valves to spec.
I'd like to start slowly towards collecting some correct parts, it is missing the air cleaner.
