My '70 (pic heavy)

Figured I'd repost this from the welcome area for all to see.

I found me a 1970 Chevy CST10, So this seemed the logical place to be. This fits into my stable of 2 built Nissan 4x4s with leaf sprung solid front axles, my 2004 Suzuki Intruder, and my wife's 2007 Nissan Murano AWD.

I traded a very nice 2000 Z28 Camaro straight up for the truck and so far I'm pleased with the trade, though I will miss that car for a long time.

Here's a few of the goodies and a stack of pics.

Freshly built 400...As I've had the truck less than a week, I haven't completely looked over the build sheet for it, but the previous owner sank almost $6k into the motor. What I can say is that it has less than 10k on it and the truck really moves.
All new front suspension components - LCAs, UCAs, balljoints, drop spindles, TREs, idler arm, bearings, etc.
Rebuilt TH350 with a shift kit
Rebuilt 12 bolt rear / all new brakes
Rebuilt and shortened driveline
New radiator, all new hoses throughout
New Heavy duty starter
New battery
Custom Exhaust with tips exiting in front of the rear wheels
All brand new R134A compliant AC ($1800 invested in that alone)
All new duct work, cables, sliders, etc.
New BFG TAs on new chrome moonies
5" drop in front with spindles and springs, and a disc brake conversion
6" drop in rear with blocks, springs, and a sectioned frame

The interior is original and near immaculate with no cracks/tears, etc. It all works, even the AM radio! The CST model gave it wood grain on the trim, tailgate, and interior panels, and a nice headliner.

There's 66k miles on the truck. Box A miles. It hasn't flipped over. There's under 10k on the drivetrain.

I'm currently seeking an original black and yellow Arizona 69 plate for it. I have one, but the number is in use on a newer style plate, but I think I can find another.

I didn't wash it before the pics, so it's not as clean as it could be, but here goes.
