A few C10 updates

First is Matts(street steel) 63 burb.
It got a new crate motor, ac and a Z'd front frame to add to already being bagged.
The rear will drop another 2.5" once over-sized bumpstops are removed. He has to relocate shocks first.

Then there's my red 63 short fleet bbw. I didn't plan to do much bodywork. Just chassis/drivetrain and leave it "wore out". Well I saw some cracks on lower left bedside and this is what I found...lol
No rust but a big f'n dent covered with 3/4" of bondo...

So I guess I'll fix a few spots and have primer spots. The truck is really pretty solid just shody bodywork over dents.

Here it is when I brought it home. Its all torn apart in garage now. Rear suspension is about done.
Matts working on my front lower control arms, so it wont be long til fronts done.

I planned to clean it up alot more, and bag it, but I think its getting static for now. And Im just going to drive it til someone buys it by fall. Found a fall/winter project I want to buy once the 63 sells.
