72 C10 Intro
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hey Folks, just wanted to make a quick post to introduce myself.

Picked up my C10 almost a year ago down in Iowa. Has had rockers replaced, front fender replaced due to a fender bender and some work to the cab supports. Right now she has a little rust down in the lower corners behind the back-seat. Otherwise, I am told that this is still the original paint. I was given the original title and I am the second person it has ever been titled to.

Since I owned it, I put in a HEI ignition, rebuilt the quadrajet, new plugs, and wires... runs like a champ!

Yeah, what are you doing stealing our trucks....:)

Looks good from here. Keep us updated on any progress. I would probably just drive it.

Came from the Waterloo, IA area.

yup, 350, power steering and brakes,

I have been tidying up some wiring and removing random stuff they had installed. It had a air horn and a aftermarket (not functioning) cruise control. I have some new push-on door seals on order.

I bought a used rotating assembly off of a co-worker and plan on slowly building that up. Not that there is anything wrong with the current engine. I have always wanted to build up my own!

appears to be a pretty well-done home made piece. The main rear part is actually a railroad beam
