    The shop manuals and assembly manual are the "Bibles" of my project. Buy them here at Chevy Duty! Truck mags and catalogs can help a lot too.

    I agree, a shop manual and few magazines tech articles are worth their weight in gold.

    You will definitely need a shop manual so buy the original Chevy one and don't count on the Chiltons, etc. Also I got a pretty good book at the library entitled something like "Restoring Your Chevrolet Truck". It gave a good overview of the restoration process and some good hints that you won't find in the shop manual.

    Good luck!!!
