Yeah I agree I have gotten alot more looks now since it has been painted.

Ordered a HP trans rebuild kit last night. While I was driving it last night in 3rd gear it kept down shifting into 2nd gear whenever I put the slightest strain on the motor. Hopefully this will take care of that issue.

Those drag pics look sick! Did they have to call the fire dept. because of the smoke??? Lol
Those rims are close to the type I'm getting, are they Foose Nitrous? Any way that is a great looking truck and keep up the good work!

No problem I checked out your build too and it is coming along nicely.

My buddy and I made this wood kit out of Red Oak. It turned out nicely, and the hole where the radio once was is gone.

I got the rebuild kit for the THM350, but I am really thinking about getting a 700R4. That overdrive would really be nice since we but the 4.10 posi trac in it and I really tired of the RPM's being at 3100 while driving 60 MPH. What do you all think should I do it and if so where should I get the 700R4 at?

Well the transmission is rebuilt and the C10 is back on the road and performing like it should.

A few pictures from when I was doing the transmission.
