Re: 1971 c10 stepside

well guys the fun has begun , spent a few hours today stripping the truck down ,
the wood bed was a pain but a good pain in my book , i have a few small things left to take out but 80% its done , next step is to strip and paint chassis and wait for suspension brakes and wheels to arrive so i can start to build here are some pix

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

I went by Raul's house for a little while yesterday and he was full throttle tearing "Abuelo" up. I helped a litle passsing tools to him and holding somethings here and there and I could definetly see my brother was in heaven Here are a couple of picts to add to this build. The camaro took a whole day bath in the south florida great weather we wave had since friday
