I don’t have many new pics haha. Waiting for the guy doing the paint and body work to send me some pictures.
As soon as I get some time, I’m going to pull the glass out, take all the door handles, etc off the truck so I can take the truck to him so he can finish all of that. Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: My 85 C10
It’s been about half a year since I have done an update.
I took the bed to a body shop in the Plano/Frisco Texas area and paid a guy $3000 to get started. He didn’t get much accomplished.... At least not on the body work. Apparently he decided to moonlight body work and become a professional drug trafficer. He was arrested a few months at the border of Texas/Mexico transporting a large amount of cocaine. I ended up driving 6 hours or so from Midland to pick up the bed from the landlord of the building and dropped the bed off with another more reputible body shop. So far, my luck with body shops isn’t much better today then it has been. I don’t believe the second body shop has even started. All of this is why I dropped the bed off only, and have been reluctant to hand over my entire truck.

Re: My 85 C10
I would love to do the bodywork myself. Unfortunately, my career choice has left me with not enough time to learn, do the work, and live in hotels when I’m not on a wellsite somewhere in the middle of West Texas. It will get done one way or another.
