72 C-10 P/U "My Ratrod"

This is my truck, not much but I like it. Bought it for $200.00 off a guy who was going to scrap it (you can see the old fridge and junk in the bed). It needed trailing arms ($$), starter, fuel pump, alt. and carb rebuild. I painted it industral black and have been driving it for two years like this. Its on jack stands now getting some 2.5" drop spindles and 4" springs out back. The rockers are gone and the bed has more holes than a peice of swiss cheese. Please be easy on me. Thanks

Oh and it's... "Built not bought"

I was able to get the springs and spindles completed today before I had to head to work. Took me 3 afternoons and a few brewski's. I did a quick resto of the front suspension parts while still on the truck. Some elbow grease, primer and some black paint. Then I greased it up, threw the wheels on and took her to the park for a photo shoot. Getting a set of 275/60/15's for the rear tomorrow afternoon. Keeping the 215/60/15's on the front for now.
