Build Thread-1970 C10
Well, I've seen alot of build threads lately, so I thought what the heck, I'll start my own.
1st pic is of the truck I started with-1970 C10 SWB, Fleet, 307/Auto. 2nd and 3rd pics are of the frame as it sits right now. Just got the rear axle, trailing arms and springs-3" drop put on today. Swapped the Posi unit from a 72 GMC-Thanks Teeitup Also got alot put on the front like upper a-arms, springs-1" drop, and spindles. Did the complete Disc Brake conversion from CCP. All hardware is SS-bought from Totally stainless, if I couldn't get it in Stainless, then I had it Zinc plated by Restoration Specialties. 4th pic Everything was completely disassembled and then sandblasted. After sandblasting I used Eastwood's Rust Encapsulator, then their Extreme Chassis Black, then Diamond Clear.
