I can buy this low mileage rebuilt with converter for $500.00?? The guy seem like a stand up dude! I'm kind of leaning towards the new one just for peace of mind. What you guys think?

New with warranty sounds like the way to go to me.

Its about to be on Terrence. We are going to finish this thing and cruise the wheels off of it.

Re: 1967 C10 Urban Retro

If that engine has more than 375-400 HP then a stock 700R4 may not last that long if you beat on it.

I would vote for new on the trans. Just think of taking 4 years to finally get to drive it and then finding out the used tranny has to be pulled and rebuilt. Beautiful truck!!

Yes sir! Tommy Lee came by tonight so we could talk about wiring and other goodies. I was really hoping to have it done by February for the Starbird show, but he doesn't think he can get it in by then...

It just a simple 290hp crate engine. Nothing outrageous.

Well the verdict is in, I'm going with the new tranny! I agree with you guys. It's going to cost me $175.00 more! But I think it's a great investment choice! And thanks for the compliment, my dream is to make The Classic Truck Magazine one day!

Sometimes you just can't beat simplicity! No chrome no bling! Old school! Break up the look a little. I think I will go black plugs and all black hoses to match the black block... Mix it up a little!

Powder coated Battery Tray! I was concerned that it may not mesh with endurance shine parts but it goes perfect with the radiator!

Final assembly, I bet you are excited to be so close to driving it.

Yeah Brian! It's been 8 years buddy! I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel. I would say you have no idea! But I'm sure you do! I got a question for ya! I just pulled the E-brake pedal from my donor cab. I wanted to install it instead of that ugly handle. It looks like a simple enough upgrade. Just 3 holes in the firewall, right? Or would it be more to it? 2 holes for the bolts and one hole for the cable?
