I am Back!
 
It has been a while- been though a couple potential project trucks and been concentrating on my 61 Bel Air, but I just got a new toy today. This is the coolest truck I have EVER owned. Got some plans with it but cool already in my opinion.

Here are the details...
1964 C-10
LS1
700R
if that isnt enough, it has 2 tanks, 3/8" valves, 2 viair compressors and the frame is SUPER clean. This rides better than a new truck- I should know, I just drove it 6 hours home. What a fun day. Thanks to Mano for the help picking her up!

Very nice truck! How much did you get that for, if you don't mind me asking.

Here is the Bel Air

As for the rest... Soon I will get more pics and will definately include the engine.

The interior is set to get a new seat cover and carpet- maybe a noise box too.

The bed will get re-done and sport a wood slat style similar to my '65 I did

The wheels are up in the air- I am not sure if I want them to match the paint closer or maybe cream. Still planning that one.

Oh I also plan to put a ton of miles on it but winter will slow me down on my enthusiasm.

Thanks everyone. Got the white stripe off the hood yesterday. Dont want to start on anything major because it is too damn much fun to drive. Sucks that winter is right around the corner cause I want to cruise the hell out of this thing.
