New to the C10 game
 

a week or so ago I bought my new baby
From a good now great friend of mine he sunk a ton of money into it in the early 90`s and last had it insured in 98 so its been sitting since then Its has a 383 with 40 000kms on it Carter carb Edlebrock Performer Manifold a nice little cam by the sound of it headers 041 heads.
Behind that is a th400 with a shift kit and a Higher stall to match the cam it is also completely rebuilt with less then 8000 Kms on it

The truck has 4 wheel drums for some reason I think it may be a 69 but have the cab from a 72 because it has a 69 grill 4 wheel drums 6 lug 041 heads and the front suspension has screw in bushings.

I plan on fixing all the rust cab mounts are gone rockers are there but slightly rusty cab corners are of course gone.

The frame is going to be beadblasted get a newer crossmember 4-6 drop I want to make this thing handle like its on rails (well at least for a truck)

I will try to get pics up as soon as I can But it looks like I will be busy this weekend we have a monster carshow in town so it may be a while

Welcome to the board from SW Washington State.....

Another welcome from Mississippi. Mine is also a '69 with a '72 cab. At times , I wish it was more original, but I forget about that when I'm driving it. :burnout:

Welcome from southern oregon and good luck on your project...

Welcome to the board from Green Bay!

Welcome, yet another one, from Mississippi, this time the south end of it!

Wow thanks for the welcoming

I wish my truck was more orginal too but then I think about how it wouldnt stay that way for very long anyways. I may end up putting a new cab on it depending on what I can find for how much money Same with the box I may stick either a short bed or a stepside on it but it all depends on what I can get and how much its going to cost me.

Hopefully I can get pics soon I dont have a Digi cam (I should buy one but all my money is going into the truck right now) So I have to borrow a friends

Welcome from central Ohio.
Sounds like you got a sweet truck there...but we won't know untill we see pics. ;)

Welcome from Colorado. Think of the cam as an investment in your trucks future. Pics for a magazine's readers rides. Just a thought.

HEL-LO-!!
