New guy from central CA
Hi everybody, new guy from central CA. I created an account when i was doing some research on these trucks, and now I own one!
I bought a '68 C10 longbed, 350 crate motor w/ 3 speed (now floor shift), 3/5 drop, and some mechanical and body work that needs to be done, for $1200. The truck was a desert truck, the cab corners and rockers look solid. It's going to be a weekend fun truck. It got backed into in a parking lot, the Expedition hit the door, cab, and bed.

Re: New guy from central CA
Rust free trucks are a huge bonus to keeping your build cost down. Those dents should pull right out and your good to go.
Keep us posted on your progress....

That's the exact reason I wanted this truck. I have been looking off and on for a couple years and could not find anything close to that price range that was not swiss cheese.
