Re: Rusbuilt's 68 C-10
Well I have a small update for this evening.. I installed new shoes, wheel cylinders and all new hardware on the rear end tonight. And I also changed the fluid in the rear end as well. Knocking a few little things off the list..

I need to resize my pictures I guess. They are the right way on my computer but when I post them they turn sideways.

Re: Rusbuilt's 68 C-10
I feel like I've hit a brick wall.. I am trying so hard to get this thing back on the road but it seems like every little thing is hanging me up. Hopefully I'll have a better day tomorrow and I can upload some pictures of what I've done.
