Blue 65 c10 build
Not sure how much of a "build" thread this is, but thought I'd whore it up a little and post some progress pictures.
Stage 1 of the truck brought a freshly built 383 stroker, new crate 700r4 trans with lock-up, CPP drop spindles,4" CPP drop coils rear, 3" CPP drop coils rear, CPP drop shocks, 235 front BFG's, 295 rear BFG's........ also found some aged boards to replace the bed wood. |

Re: Blue 65 c10 build
Sweet '65 Ryan, we really should start putting our build threads on p-shop to liven that place up a bit.
Any more plans with this one? |

Re: Blue 65 c10 build
Yup. More plans....
Wood roof rack. Next fall put it on air and I'm thinking of cutting down the box. Just hard to bring myself to do it. I love the patina as is. Dreaming of a LSX in it, but ..... |

Re: Blue 65 c10 build
I will be leaving it as a LWB, and leaving it static drop.
The LS motor and roof rack are still in the mix. |

Re: Blue 65 c10 build
Thanks.
It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I'm sure loving it. Im humbled by most rides on here, but thanks. Yes patina does rock. |
