1970 C-10 Shortbed Project

Well, I have been on here for a few months now and decided to post a pic of the project. This is what she looked like after she made the 800 mile trip from TX. It is now completely disassembled. It is a 70 C-10 with a 307 and no frills-except a little rust, but am going to add disc brakes, aftermarket AC, stepside bed, PS, PB, and a 1"/3" drop.





What do ya guys/gals think of it.

Re: 1970 C-10 Shortbed Project

for 800 miles you coulda found a nicer one closer to ya. that's a lot of work, and i hope you know that equals a lot of money.

Re: 1970 C-10 Shortbed Project

Thanks for the replies guys, I know I could of found one closer, but I LOVE ROADTRIPS and I got a heck of a deal on it.

I knew it would be alot of work and $$$ but I love these trucks and you only live once,

I sort of made the trip a family affair, I used my brothers truck (2005 GMC Sierra crew cab 4x4 Z71)-I'm jealous , my dad's trailer pulling my heap home.

I have been doing alot of work on her, Here's the current stage.
