Just another 66 C10

[dtkarst]

So I've had this truck for a few months, but just now putting a thread on here. Its a 1966 C10 custom cab long bed. Bought it because i saw it on local classified ad for $1100. I was bored that day so I called the old owner up and got the details. 66 C10, factory V8 said to be 283, custom cab. Hadnt been driven or started in at least 15-20 years despite what he told me. The mice had the wires eaten to nothing. But needless to say I went to look at it and after some haggling, $500 later it was mine. Took it home ran some make shift wires to get it to fire and cleaned the engine compartment. As i was getting mouse remains off and the inch layer of grease off the valve covers on the engine i discovered it was a 327. Ran the numbers on the block and it was made in flint and is the correct factory motor. Originally bought it to maybe turn around and sell it, but since i found it was a 327 i decided to keep it. So I just put new wiring in it and still in the process of doing tail lights and reverse lights. Needs fenders, inner fenders, one rocker panel, one cab corner and 3 supports. Floor has a couple holes in it but nothing major. Ive seen worse haha
