1967 C10 Restoration begins
New member. I am starting a frame up restoration on a 1967 C10. I have a 350 small block out of a 1971 Impala , i will rebuild. Automatic transmission, turbo 350. I also have a turbo 400, any preference out there? I have a 1986 Chevy tilt steering colhumn. I am going to keep the truck stock looking with modern updates, suspension, brakes, a/c, ps ect. Not going to drop it at all. What i am looking for is advice. Things to do and not to do. I am at the dissassemble stage. My weak link is body work, but gonna do as much as i can. Gonna start with the front suspension and move back. I hope to be done in about 2 to 3 years, that always seesm to turn into 10 years LOL. Thanks for any input.

Take lots of pics for us and for reference. And as you teardown, bag and label your bolts. Fender bolts one bag, header panal, one bag etc. And take your time. Reseal upper and lower a arms.

Picture will be key. No matter how many you take, there will not be enough of the detail you need. As you go back together you will wish you did more.
