“George” the 1964 C10 Fleetside LWB

[Pick121]

Jan 10 I also installed inspection plate (which is new, the truck had none when I bought it) and starter. It was raw metal so I wiped it down with brake cleaner, primed and painted in Chevy Orange to match the bellhousing. It ended up with a few runs in the orange (I am blaming the 30 F temps not my lack of skills) but since it is under the truck and not visible, I called it good.
The plate goes on before the starter, and I wish I had made better notes or before photos of the starter because as you can see in the photos I was left with a long 9/16” bolt, a short 9/16” bolt, and a short 7/16” bolt with a different head. If anyone knows what actually goes where let me know. The long bolt I used has lots of threads out the back of the starter. Oh well, it is on!
