My 82 C10 Build
 

Picked her up a month ago, 305 auto, newer paint, Texas Truck only bad spot is on the pass. Door. Super clean underneath. I picked her up to just haul material from lowes to work on my house. New Plan....... Drop her add 20 Eagle 225s, and ls swap.
This is what she looked like when i got her...

Re: My 82 C10 Build
 

I love the truck. Wish it had the original 82 grille though, not many of them left! Regardless, I wouldn't change a thing about it.
