1966 C10 Project Truck

[scoot_mcgrute]

I've been sick as a dog the last couple weeks but I was feeling good enough over the weekend to get some progress made on the Chevy





I should have the motor and tranny out on Sunday and then I can pressure wash the heck out of the whole thing, paint the frame and start installing all my parts! I have a CPP disc brake kit on order and hopefully I will be ordering a Wilwood brake and clutch master cylinder this week. Way too nice of parts for way too junkie of a truck but it's going to be so sweet!

Thanks! I'll have it at 2 in June actually. First one is the Sherwood Cruise In and the 2nd will hopefully be Cool Desert Nights up in Richland. Hoping to drive it up there with my buddy in his Ford. Should be an awesome time!

the best car show around is Vintiques Early Aug. In Yakima WA. They just opened it up to 60s vehicles and earlier, I think they actually moved it to 70s also not sure about that.
Its not a drive and shine its a show and there are some great events surrounding it too like the DRAGS. fun to see a 30 coupe do 90!
Like the project nice work

My buddy up there told me about that, I'll look into it a bit more, thanks!

Got my CPP disc brake kit for the front today. Can't wait to install it! Still looking at Wilwood master cylinders, gotta solidify what bore size I want and get it on order

Brakes and hydraulic clutch figured out and ordered!

I purchased a 1" Wilwood master cylinder kit for use with manual brakes. Not sure if I will need a residual valve for the rear drums or not but I'll get it sorted out soon. Maybe rear discs too if I can find what I want.
