Bringing my Grandfather's 1972 Longbed Stepside C10 back to life

[bwl101]

While waiting for the motor to be delivered, I addressed some transmission leak issues. Changed out the shift shaft seal and dropped the pan to clean it out and to change the trans filter. Pic of the trans pan because it looked so nice after cleaning it up! After about 5 hours worth of work in the new motor, it is basically ready to drop in the truck. Hopefully I'll be able to work on it in the afternoon and maybe get it cranked,n
