Got the hinges worked on yesterday...they were all sloppy..a few hours and a few minutes of frustration finding the parts..I came up with these from Dorman part #38374, its a kit assortment and has 2 of the ones for the 62 ..so I bought as many as I could they only had 2 at one parts house and one at another...then found them at Pep Boys availible seperate but for the same price as the assortment, at 6$ per set its not bad and LMC wanted 9.99 plus their shipping would have been more
I cleaned them up and re used the pin and put a good coat of anti sieze on the pins when I installed them, all hinges like new for under 30$ |

looking good.i know what you have went through doing this cab sheet metal work i restored a 66 truck back in 1994 and most of the repair panels were not available then and had to be made from scratch including the inner rocker panels.looks like you have done a fine job.

got the summit headers test fitted...they look ok...kinda cheap and thin flanges, but for 200$ what do u expect ?

Re: My 1962 C10 Build Thread "Grandpa's Truck "
Good to see you back :)....it's been almost a year.
Do you have a part number for those headers? How far down do they hang underneath? |
Re: My 1962 C10 Build Thread "Grandpa's Truck "

The headers are summit long tubes for a 67 camaro , they were 239 $ as I recall, they dont hang too low and for a stock truck like mine plenty of clearance, I can get the part # if you want in a few |

Re: My 1962 C10 Build Thread "Grandpa's Truck "
Been a while but still working on the 62, been going slow but..the vintage air ac is in and the upper intake is powder costed as well as all accy brackets and pulleys, I get a deal thru work so its better than me cleaning and using a rattle can, cleaning up the engine bay as I go till I blow the body apart and the front clip comes off for paint
