Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

Okay Al.... the truck is killer but as we all know, they are never done.

So what's next? LS? Turbos?

Well Nate I would love to have an LS3 with a single turbo. At this moment it is more of doing finishing touches on areas that we may have missed but nothing too involved.


I am actively trying to find a "DEAL" for a muscle car or truck to make it my next new toy as I sold my last harley and I am fighting the urge to buy another one

Thanks Chris......It has been 3 1/2 years of doing things here and there but finally I reached a point where I really like the way the truck is. Of course I am already thinking of either another truck/car or a ls3 turbo set up for this one. Will see what I decide..Im going to barret jackson this weekend in palm beach so who knows If i come home with something....

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

You better not trade or sell that truck! I see so many people build sweet looking trucks and talk about how much they cant wait to drive them and then SELL them the first chance they get! Better NOT!

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

Cleaning out picts of my cameras memory card I came accross these picts from my air ride install/four wheel disc install while I was waiting for my billet wheels. I thought I should add them as I use this thread as a diary of my truck..First picture is of member Raull and my self...then there are two picts of my youngest son at 11:00pm at night as he wanted to be in the garage and not got to bed hence him wearing his pj's..
