Re: 65' Chevy C10

Cab is flipped down after undercoating the entire bottom, and painting the frame rails. Wired the engine and all of the accessories. I put a ton of work into the exhaust. The "kit" was not even close and nearly everything had to be reworked. Everything was tig welded, and they all actually looked good. I tiged bolts onto the headers so that a third hand is not needed when putting the pipes on. I ran all new steel line lines from the bed mounted tank. Primed the engine an lit it off for the first time this past weekend. Sounds absolutely amazing, the hearthrob mufflers combined with the comp high energy cam made everything worth it. I have graduation this coming weekend and many people are coming to see, hear, and if I can allow it drive the pickup. I still have to do a ton of stuff. But my goal of having it running is completed. Once the driveshaft is in and the brakes are finished I can take it on its maiden voyage with no doors, hood, or fenders while sitting on a bucket. I also go the new radio hole welded in and you barely know it has been done. I am very proud of how it turned out.
