72 burb build
This is my first C10 chassis build, I have done quite a few air ride builds and minitrucks so here we go...
Heres a rendering by a friend of mine and some pics of the last few days.. Got the motor out and I have her mostly "degreased" and cleaned up. Have a lot of shiny stuff on order for the motor, expect my PB dropmember within 2 weeks or so (ordered 7 days ago) got some ART control arms already, mustang 2 rack and pinion is on the way as well. the next month will be lots of work...  and progress no real good pics yet since none of the fun stuff has begun.    And the wheels i plan on orderin in 24x9.5 with 6.5" backspace

Re: 72 burb build
Yeah dude I drove it for about a week after I bought it. surprisingly everything so far is in great shape, found a tiny bit of rust where the driver fender meets the door and a tiny bit inside the doors but nothing crazy.
