subscribed. something about seeing someone build something when money isn't a factor. Just makes me happy inside to know someone can do it.

Amen to that brother eventhough you guys are a little far from me considering i'm in New Jersey :lol: I'm kinda hoping I have a little problem since swapping my big block in on my small block front springs, then I would have an excuse to bag it :devil: My father asked me "what are you going to do about the front springs, are you going to change them for big block springs", my reply was nope i'm not going to worry about them now. Little does he know my master plan

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 

well keith i tell you what , if you are going to do it now its the time , its a lot easier at the stage your's and chad's are right now before you put the body parts on , it will slow the build some but at least you can have fun in the mean time going up and down everyday like i do

Raul - Did you have to trim the lip of your rear step fenders? Assuming it's not drivable that low (?) How close are you to the inner bedsides?

Regardless of $ brother, if you've got it I say do it. You have one life, one time around. Enjoy it. Just my .02.

And, yes .. We definitely need to have an 'South East Coast C10 bash' like we talked about. Swap Meet spaces, Open show, etc. Maybe do it somewhere around the GA / FL line (?) donate the funds to Christmas for Kids or something. We'll work it out.

i had a little time to spare tonite so i marked and did some cutting and got the porterbuilt hinges inside the cowl panel, little progress but better than nothing !!!!

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 

i had a couple of hours this morning so i installed the new cowl hinges , they are very nice , i'll try to weld the hood plates this week and back off they come out for powder coating.

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
