Finally got me a C10!!!
Hey guys. Glad to say i've finally got me a c10. Its a 72 deluxe with factory ac, power steering, and brakes. I have the majority of the trim along with the factory bench seat (has a '95 bench seat in it now). Over the weekend i got the AC working but it needs to be charged, the trans fluid changed, and new brake booster. I drove it home from about 40 miles away after swapping the carb and changing the oil. I need to check the timing and the fluid in the rear end because it seems to have a little whine when im on the gas. I'll put some more picks up as i get them.
Wanted to give a quick thanks to the website because ive been reading up on them for awhile and really have found alot of useful info on here. Thanks for the help and not knowing your putting it out there. ![]() ![]() |

Re: Finally got me a C10!!!
Thanks. Its been in a barn for 2 years and as of right now im going to be fixing small stuff a little at a time due to limited budget and a little one starting to crawl. It will be a driver if i need it, but im already getting parts to fix the fenders and a new bumper. I would love to drop a 5.3 or 6.0 with an overdrive trans in it one day.

The SPID is the options label on the inside of the glovebox door.

Re: Finally got me a C10!!!
Well your in the right place........I see no reason why your truck couldn't look like that some day. Plan it out, ask a lot of Q? and take your time and your truck can be whatever you want it to be.
