Re: flashed '72 c10 swb
Thanks guys ,It looks a lot like it would have way back when it was new with a few add ons and changes here and there .This was originally a stripper truck when new with a 6 cylinder engine and automatic trans and AM radio ,Medium Red w/ White bumpers .I saved the original glove box door with the original spid on it.When I bought the old truck it was pretty rough but drivable with a 350w/hot cam ,ugly 10" wide wheels all around ,lowered by heating the coils ,black diamond tuck interior w/red piping all over ,door panels ,headliner ,gas tank and seats .It did come with its original carpet ,what color I cant tell you as it was rotten and dirty .It had the usual rust spots as most do but it was a factory short bed which was one of my wants as well as the auto trans .It took about 5 years to build (Not By Me) ,as I knew what I wanted but dont have the talent to do.I wanted it stock ride height ,look almost factory original with minor changes .We put a radio delete plate in as the old AM radio was long gone .I was given(FREE) a set of nice BuddyBuckets which I had recovered in black cloth ,I wanted a tinted back slider window ,a vinyl mat on the floor as I did plan on driving this truck and got a rebuilt GM truck tilt
colomn .A friend of mine in Ireland knew I wanted a Chevelle steering wheel on that column and he sent me the one from his 72 SS Chevelle which I treasure ,thanks Liam.
