My First Dime

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok I am new to this c10 truck build scean,I have always built Lowrider or Restorod Impalas.I have just sold my last Impala that I took a little to far but I finished it and drove it and some one needed it worse then me so I sold it.Now I am on to this 1965 C10 that i found on a farm 3 miles from my house.So i bought it and drove it home.As soon as i got it home I started looking on the net and ran across this form.I Fell in love .So I started looking and I figured out what I was going to do.I called Nate from Porterbuilt and started talking and that lead into the ordering.So here is my 1965 C10 build.I will post picks on evrything I will be doing to this .I will be trying to get it done in 2 to 3 months ..We will see.

Old custom classic trucks have soul. Their dashboards aren't plastic, and they've survived both the best and worst of what the 20th century had to offer. For the owners of these trucks, it's often the same story. Through both good and bad times they persevered, until one day they could turn the key and roll up in a customized truck everyone with good taste would admire.Custom Classic Trucks
