Rich from Florida

As a pre-retirement gift to self I have started to work on Old Gold. I parked her in the garage when we built our home, that was 20 years ago now.
She is a 1970 C10 Short Bed, no frills work truck. Column shift 3, 307.

My wife's cousin Lindsey bought it new & drove it as far away as Shelby NC from Gaffney, SC. Mostly it drove back & forth to the textile mill for work.
54k miles on her. We jumped into it loaded with a roll-top desk and drove it on the longest trip ever to Florida.

A little rust in the usual locations. All original (almost)...Someone changed the ignition cylinder at some point, not a "J" key & does not match the doors. I will need to find a way to fix that.

I love reading this forum, very valuable info. As an Electrical Engineer, I really enjoy VetteVet's posts. That man knows a thing or two.
