Wiggles 78 Cheyenne Big 10 Slow Build

[WigglesTheHoly]

Well I've been tossing around the idea of creating a build thread. I didn't want to because of how slow my progress will be but then again I wanted a place to really be able to keep my build together in chronological order other than my pictures folder on my server. So here it goes if only for me this is the build thread on the 78.

Here is the back story on the truck that I know of. Its a 1978 Chevy Cheyenne Big 10. The Owner before me (sort of) bought the truck new from the show floor. He and his wife used it to travel the us and camped in the back. Later on it was parked and driven every once in awhile till the original owner passed in the early to mid 90's. After that his wife drove the truck about 5 miles a month to his grave site, and then to the airport and back to get the cobwebs out. She later passed in the early 2000's then the truck was handed down through the will to the children. There it sat other than the occasional start up and cruise around town moments. The truck was ALWAYS stored inside the garage. The motor interior and every thing else on the truck are 100% original to the truck. The seat to my knowledge has never actually been sat on bare as its had a saddle cover seat cover on it the entire time. I bought it from the original owners kids on Aug. 6th 2010. So in my opinion I am the 2nd owner because the truck was never sold only handed down due to death in the family. I found the truck via my father who is friends with the original owners son. So here it is when I bought it it had a red bug deflector and a topper. I quickly removed the topper and the bug deflector. that was alot of typing.
