1971 C-10

I hear it's a real treat. Spoke with a guy who did it many times. He really didn't know what he was doing until he watched a film on it. From that point forward it was a simple task.

Anyway, can anyone offer a detailed description for how this is accomplished? Feel free to skip the step where you remove the door panels. From there I'd just be guessing. Thank you

Its not that bad once you figure out the steps. It does not really go back together that easily.

Sorry I am not that much help, I do know that a Chilton manual will walk you thru the steps.

I have been there, got it done.

Very cool. Thank you for the great responses. I tend to forget I have an assembly manual, and an old Chilton manual. I need to begin using them, even if it's just prep.

Wow, look at this. It's from one of the links Chickenlips posted: http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vboa...d.php?t=157539
