I went back through because I couldn't remember & didn't see any specific info on the wheels & tires. What are the technical numbers of the set-up?

So with all of the big work done I'm switching into finish mode and getting set to start the wiring. I went to Fall Carlisle this last week and was kinda let down at the lack of used parts for C10's. Anything you want for a chevelle or Camaro though, its there.. its changed a lot over the last 40 years.

Anyhow, i wanted a tach in my dash. I did find one fella selling dashes for our trucks. New rebuilt, stock or parts. Any thing with a tach was $500 and up. So i came home and figured id tare mine apart and see what i could do.
I had an original Knee knocker tach for a 66 chevelle that had a busted mounting ear so it became my transplant. I know its not perfect, but at first glance someone who is unfamiliar would think it was stock, and those of you who know different might think its alright? Either way, I'm happy with it and ill now have a working Tach.

I missed your thread somehow - your truck looks great! I love the hood, and that color is just right!

This is really the best i have. Its an 8" notch and firestone cocktail shaker bags mounted behind and under the rear. lots of movement and adjustability

I'm trying to decide if i want to install body side moldings or leave them off? If i do install them they will be painted to match the rest of the trim.

Your truck is very clean looking, but I think throwing the side moldings on there would really set it off! They get my vote!
