Yes sir, I talked to Fred yesterday and he has some problems finding a good core. He was telling me there are only a few years of the 700r4s that one would want to use for the swap, because of strength and different valve bodies and stuff. He was building it last night so hopefully it will go in today!

Re: Rusbuilt's 68 C-10
Well I still haven't got my truck back from the transmission shop yet but I did manage to score a set of 20 inch wheels! I haven't really been in the market but they were too good of a deal to pass up! I'll have to polish them up a bit though.

No not yet, I spent the weekend in Knoxville helping my sister-in-law move. I hope to get them polished up and on the truck this week though!

Cool! I know you must be excited!

Those wheels will look nice polished up. They look similar to many of the popular wheels right now...
