Re: 67 C-10 project.

thanks! i'm excited to start working on it and getting it cleaned up. my plan is to just do it a little bit at a time and keep it driveable. the first thing i need to do is get the brakes working. when i looked underneath it last night to see if i had a 12 bolt rear end i noticed that the rear drivers side wheel is leaking brake fuid pretty bad. so i'll start with that.

to update where the truck is at as of 3/5/2011

have installed a 73-74 front end with HD discs
have purchased a 79 12 bolt rear end
aquired 5 15 x8 ralley wheels and two new tires so far
purchased a new side door mirror
aquired a good running 350 motor
aquired a 67 327 motor to rebuild someday
