Re: 6 Weeks away from owning a 1986 C10 Silverado.

Hey, all.

Thanks so much for the prompt and detailed replies.

Certainly, my first priority for a few weeks will be maintenance and getting her safe and reliable. Just did a brake job (replaced calipers and lines) on my old Mercedes, so at least I'll still be mentally in the zone for that.

As you guys have suggested, making her tip top as she is (while losing the canopy and flaps, of course), is #1 priority; however, it is nice to be thinking of a vision for her in advance. 50seven, I don't think I'll be lowering it. Perhaps a 2" drop in the front, but that would be it. In that event, do you think long tube headers would be fine?

Cheers!
