Re: 1963 C-10 in NC
Red head steering box arrived today. I have nothing but good to say about Red Head Steering and their customer service and the quality of the part I purchased. Should be able to install this weekend, which is great. Now I can reinstall the steering column and steering wheel!!!!
One of these days I'll take the time to learn to rebuild one of these boxes, but for now....$241 well spent and with a warranty. And rcvd part within a few days of payment. Note: They also will rebuild your box and use custom colors. I was fine with black and the red top which is their trademark colors.

Re: 1963 C-10 in NC
Finally got through all the prep and masked off. Got 2 coats of primer down. Did some final sanding and a little glaze over some areas that popped with primer down. Color and clear tomorrow
