Re: 72 c-10 shorty
glad I could help! its funny how some people love this color and others cant stand it. My father hates the colors on my truck, but I imagine that will change with all the trim and wheels mounted!

Re: 72 c-10 shorty
well it took awhile, but my tires finally showed up at kal tire today! of course its a long weekend, so I will test my patience and go the weekend without them, have a close friend that works there so hes going to mount the rubber up for me so some kid doesnt mess up the rims. To say Im excited would be an under statement. just waiting on my a-arm bushings and Im ready to tear this sucker apart and get it on its new rolling attire. not pumped even alittle bit! lol

Re: 72 c-10 shorty
That truck is looking sweet! I hate to admit this, but I've never even thought about bolting a tranny to an engine stand to work on it. Now I know. Thanks!

Re: 72 c-10 shorty
Yeah it will change once he sees it all finished. I have always loved Orange on any vehicle but really looks amazing on our trucks. I'm undecided on hugger orange or your color for mine. My dad has a 40 Chevy Pickup that is hugger orange that looks really really nice but I also like the Tangier Orange that you have. Ah decisions decisions lol.

Re: 72 c-10 shorty
Any tips on sandblasting in the area? I called a couple places and either nobody does it, they dont know who can do it or they cant give me any idea of what they can do or when.
I just want my control arms / swing arms done while I have them apart. |
