Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
Yeah I ended using black trim screws to keep panels right.
I'll look for a picture of throttle pedal installed. |

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
Haven't posted for awhile but did finish the rear end install. Got hood and cowl finished and installed. Had a trans leak from convertor seal. Decided to install a 4L65e and painted it to match rear end and driveshaft.

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
Took it to a car show Saturday for the first time completed. I got a sponsor award which felt awesome after all the hard work. It has been running great and am just dealing with minor issues like wing window air leaks and a door rattle but nothing too serious. I redid exhaust and ran it out behind rear wheels due to drone in the cab. She is fun to drive and have been enjoying it alot. So far I have put 400 miles on it since I finished it.
