Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 

Sounds like a plan to me. :)

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 

well today I came over to my boys house so we could finally put up the beam in his garage. Raul and his dad had already done all the hard work all he needed help with was just to lift the beam and secure it in place. I took some picts to share with you all....Now that the beam is on I am sure Raul will move this projecrt fast forward real quick as I know him and i both are anxious to get the stepside "abuelo" moving on it's own power..
