Re: "Woodson" - New to me 1977 Silverado C10

Cool truck I love the old 70's/80's look. I actually am tossing the idea around in my head about going black on the front bumper. Woodson is now making me lean more towards it. I see nobody here asked about your old column. I would be interested in it if nobody has spoken up yet.

Re: "Woodson" - New to me 1977 Silverado C10

I want to make my Green Jeans truck into Woodson's green cousin. I've been researching wood grain vinyl and turbine wheels... and currently undergoing a 5.3 turbo build.

Good job on the quick progress!!!

Thanks!!! You too!!!

I'm really paying attention to the AC install since I plan to do the same thing. Take lots of pictures of that part please and thank you! If there are any special parts to buy besides going to Napa to get the hoses made, please be as detailed as possible in your explanation.

Installed a new radiator and the cold air intake. Waiting on my fuel filler hose to arrive and should be ready to fire up soon.

Re: "Woodson" - New to me 1977 Silverado C10

Anything that has the same wheels as the A-team Van is a win in my book lol... Nice looking truck and I'm sure it's going to be a beast with the 5.3. Good job so far!
