subscribed. something about seeing someone build something when money isn't a factor. Just makes me happy inside to know someone can do it.

Amen to that brother eventhough you guys are a little far from me considering i'm in New Jersey I'm kinda hoping I have a little problem since swapping my big block in on my small block front springs, then I would have an excuse to bag it My father asked me "what are you going to do about the front springs, are you going to change them for big block springs", my reply was nope i'm not going to worry about them now. Little does he know my master plan

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

Raul - Did you have to trim the lip of your rear step fenders? Assuming it's not drivable that low (?) How close are you to the inner bedsides?

Regardless of $ brother, if you've got it I say do it. You have one life, one time around. Enjoy it. Just my .02.

And, yes .. We definitely need to have an 'South East Coast C10 bash' like we talked about. Swap Meet spaces, Open show, etc. Maybe do it somewhere around the GA / FL line (?) donate the funds to Christmas for Kids or something. We'll work it out.
