This CD is loaded with specifications, illustrations, photographs and guided instructions covering: General Information (including a Load Capacity Chart); Lubrication; Frame & Suspension; Steering; Rear Axle; Brakes; Engine Tune-Up; Engine Mechanical; Electrical Systems; Fuel & Exhaust Systems; Clutch; Transmissions (Manual & Automatic); Body & Sheet Metal; Accessories; Four Wheel Drive and Specifications.

Produced under licensed agreement with Chevrolet, you can be confident this CD is an accurate reproduction of the same Chevy Truck shop manuals that an authorized Chevrolet dealership mechanic would use to service your truck when it was new. You will find it very useful when restoring or maintaining your classic machine.

I have a 62 that I have owned for 42 years. It has been through every member of the family and I am now restoring it. I have completly sandblasted and restored the cab and front to brand new and it is in paint. I am using a maroon urethane 5 coats color sanded and polished. I put a 350 small block with all Edlebrock chrome and new power steering and power disc brakes. I changed the torsion bar to a 1980 chev truck front suspension. New wiring and every thing new on the interior panel except the gage cluster. I was shocked how much welding it took after sandblasting and how much new metal in the doors and sills. I was also surprised the cab top stayed on the truck in the wind.

I would like to attach some pictures to show the progress but I am not sure the process you guys are using to post the pictures. I have all my status pictures in my windows photo gallery.

To post pictures, once you've typed your text, scroll down to where it says 'manage attachments'. Click on that, and then click on 'browse'. That will take you to your computer, and then you'll have to navigate from there to find your pics. Once you have selected your pics, click on 'upload'. Once they are uploaded, close that window, and click on 'submit reply'. Done. Note that it is possible that you may have to reduce the size of your pics to be able to upload. That should be doable in your Windows photo gallery.

I just found this thread while doing a search for mirrors on '62 C10. After reviewing all the '62's here, I think I'm going to go with the rectangular 5x7 mirrors. Here's a picture of my truck - 'Ol Blue (rattle can paint job)

Yea it feels pretty good, but unfortunatly I still have some small stuff to take care of before it hits the streets.

[1Bad62Pro/Street]

[burbluv]

Here is a shot of my 1/2 ton 4x4 burb.
I just got it a few weeks ago and
I might be selling the newly powder coated grill, front bumper and rear bumper. It depends if I can find another decent 62 grill to chrome.
So if you are interested just hit me up.
Thanks,
