New member here.

I just put down a deposit on this project. Should be picking it up early Saturday morning

1972 C-10 Long bed.
No engine
No trans
has a 12 bolt with 3.73 and a drive shaft
was "restored" about 5 years ago, so body seems decent

Any suggestions on drive train?

Personally I think it will buff out.

All that orange paint looks like it can be scuffed and painted.

The exterior will need a little more TLC. I didn't see much cancerous rust.

I'll make a plan and start a build thread. I am thinking 5 speed.
