'82 C10 2wd, short fleet build
Hey all - I haven't been on here much lately but decided to start a build thread for this truck to keep me motivated! Getting a drop, 5.3L, etc. Still haven't totally decided on color, but I will be grinding off that nasty tractor supply black paint. Needs cab corners and one fender, but a pretty solid truck otherwise...guess the PO didn't lie about it's Texas roots.
Anyway, I have it torn down as far as I am going to go...gonna bypass the complete frame off on this one...already have two of those in progress. Attaching some pics to get started...

Looks good, don't worry about the cab corners. Mine lived in southern California its whole life and needed one cab corner done.
