Meet Lucille
Hey y'all Im in TX and have been known to build a few toys. My most recent project is a 1962 C10 named Lucille. She has been in my family since the 60's.
My brother drove her in high school and I had a blue 66 LWB Custom. We parked her in the hay field in 1997 in Northern Colorado until I hauled her to TX last October. Since then I have taken her from a locked up inline six to period correct hot rod truck. I rebuilt and swapped in a 283 out of a 1962 C10 added tripower, hei, an alternator disguised as a generator and finished her in Poppy's Patina. I also redid the bed and brakes all the way around.I still need to finish the seat and sun visors in leather, and install an Old Air AC system. It feels great to have her back on the road.
