Hello from Virginia
I am and have been working on a 69 SWB C-10 for many years. I started strong but had to put it on hold for a while while my better half fought Breast Cancer. 4 years later and it looks like I can continue. It has a 67 front end on it with a 468 cid and a 700R4 trans. I am building a flip front end for it, it is bagged, tubbed, smoothed and coming along slowly. 12 bolt posi rear with 4.10 gears. I am going to installed a welded in tailgate with corvette lights. I am still in the air about wheels even though I am leaning toward polished american racing 200s. Rear wheel width is still in the air and I posted earlier for help. To many modifications and not enough time but the building is almost as much fun as the driving. Reading the forum I see others are installing the master cylinder under the dash. I am fitting a kugel 90 degree bracket under the dash and am leaning toward the ABS power brake remote fill master cylinder. Thanks for the opportunity to be part of this site.
