Re: 68 c10 6.5 turbo diesel
Ok question time what do you think is better stage of paint single stage or 2 stage. What primer should I use the truck is going to be white. I am going to be painting this my self so keep that in mind. I already know that it wont look like a pro paint job. Also people around here can care less if you have a nice paint job. In fact I think they get a kick out of running and banging into a nice paint job.

Re: 68 c10 6.5 turbo diesel
Well it looks like your going to do it up right starting from the ground up, I'm sure you'll love that diesel motor in there and its cool, its different. I put a 6.2 in mine and wouldn't change a thing...
