Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
Beautiful build man! I had the same issues with my TMI panels and other fitment. Their panel clips are garbage and ended up buying good ones to put on there to hold it tight. But love the looks of the seats/dash/panels though!

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
Nice looking truck Jason! How did the shocks work out to stiffen the ride up?

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.
