Hello

[BCT]

Just joined after my girlfriend got me an early Christmas present, '69 C10 short step side 350 4 speed project truck. I haven't picked it up yet, or even seen it in person, but we are supposed to get it either Saturday or sometime next week. From the pictures she took of the truck it appears to need a decent amount of work but is still salvageable. The bottom of the passenger door and passenger side rear fender is rotted along with the headliner and some surface rust here and there but otherwise it's not too bad considering it's been sitting for 10 years.
This won't be my first crack at this type of truck so I know what I'm getting myself into with it. A few years back I was working on a '69 GMC long bed step side. I had cut out all the rot and replaced it with new metal but before I could finish I moved and had no place to put it and work on it. I was telling my girlfriend about it and that's where she got the idea for my early Christmas gift.
