I'm a old chevy truck guy, the truck is a long bed nothing wrong with a long bed, I've only done short bed trucks though. The cowl scoop is a little large but a scoop not as tall would be perfect and for the wheels take a look at the width in the rear I think you can put some wide low profile deep dish rims on it in the rear with matching standard width rims so you have drivability and the lowered and raked out look.

3 generation Chevrolet fullsize pickups in your driveway is a cool site. 1960 - 1966, 1973 - 1991, & 1999 - 2007. Sam, Coffee, Big Turd, & that 1957 you use to have would've made a total of 7 generations of Chevrolet fullsize pickups if you still had them today. That'd be a cool collection.
