My First C-10 (From Vancouver Canada)
Hi all,
I have just picked up my first C-10. Its a 72 longbox, with a 350. I'll let the pictures do the talking. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Im going to use it as my daily driver, and as you can see, I need a new tailgate. If anyone knows the cheapest place to get a tailgate, I would appreciate it. Im after a smooth aftermarket one, not a stock one if possible. Ive looked on eBay, but those just seem like skins, not entire frames and skins. Anyway, thanks all, I look forward to getting involved in the community. Cheers, Ryan |

Cool! hopefully that is a primer-sealer on your truck. straight primer will absorb moisture and produce rust on any areas without good paint. epoxy better.

Yeah, I will either plasti dip the truck for the winter, or have it painted in a couple of months, so it shouldn't be too bad either way.

Very nice truck you have. ( by the pix of the area and the types of roofs on the houses I'd swear you were in california. it looks warmer there than here, 14 degrees)

Mounting bracket for the e-fan. The po didn't want to push the mount pins through the rad fins it looks like, so he made up a mount bracket that uses the rad mounts
