New NorthWest member and my new to me 63.
I just found this forum a couple of days ago looking for information about a 63 Chev C10 that I just acquired. Looks like a very useful site. I have learned tons about another love of mine from another forum so I am hoping this one will be just as useful.

New pics in posts #28 & 29.

Here is a couple of pics of it before I even got to wash it:






Thanks,
Slim aka:Steve

I'm not sure of it's history, it was given to my son (pictured) by a friend of his moms, and I talked him into trading it to me for my 4x4 nissan p/u! lol

Thanks for the welcomes.

As soon as it quits raining I will take lots of pics. I have a few questions about this truck and it will be easier to illustrate with pictures.
