Re: Our new 69C10 project

Kinda small pic, but here is how she looked yesterday.
(turn signal tubes weren't installed yet...that's why the arrows look white)

High beam indicator is in the top of the water temp gauge, above the "2" in "240".

If any of the gauges are in the wrong location, shoot me a message using the phone number I gave you and I can move them around.
Again, I hope to ship it out on Monday.

69C10 project progress

We did a little more work this weekend, trying to go through all our extra parts and list them here for sale too. We mounted the core support, blasted, painted and installed the headlight buckets, lights and Battery box that was powder coated. LMC sent us the wrong brake lines and had to remove those and order correct ones. Now we will just wait for some more parts, my older son has spent long hours with the mothers on the truck so I put a pic of him at work.

A bit more progress with the boys and the truck

We finished the core support, rad, bumpers reinstalled and put a new front sway bar in this weekend, blasted and painted a few more parts, my youngest started using the sand blast cabinet after some instruction by his older brother, it was very cool, proud of them. We also finished most of the plumbing for the radiator and trans cooler, just waiting for a few more parts and the correc tfront brake lines.

Re: Our new 69C10 project

Thanks for the positive comments, They are helping me as well, learning that the trip is more important than the destination and of course there is the "Dad it looks better chrome!" I dont know where they got that idea. We have a flaming river column on the way too from Frank here on the board. We really enjoy all the information and help and of course following all the builds keeps us going.

progress

Wefinally recieved the right brake lines that run outside the frame away from the headers, installed those and mocked up the exhaust. Here are some pics of the cab, looks like the color is going to be going on next week, we can hardly wait. Thanks Bruce at Vintage Rod Barn! We ordered a Flaming river steering column from Frank AKA Truckman here on the board and Putters finished cluster showed up from UPS, They dropped it and broke the bezel but it was insured and looks to be a minor fix. Here is few pics of the progress.

Re: Our new 69C10 project

Finished the new grill this weekend, man those are hard to put togather my hands look like I was picking up broken glass. my oldest completed the Lokar pedals, sandblasted, paint, drilled and finished all by himself. Too bad he too young to get a job, I think he has a heck of a talent.

Re: Our new 69C10 project

Its a LMC package with the billet insert. But it all came from LMC, only thing I reused is the turn signal lights, my stock grill is actually really nice, two little dings on the outer edge of the passenger side, but since we are doing a complete project, I splurged a bit
