Re: 63 C10 SWB Dropmember Build
Thank you!
It is a f-body oil pan. Almost! I wish it was done for this last Git-Down, but for sure in 2015. |

Re: 63 C10 SWB Dropmember Build
Been real busy with work lately, and haven't had time told to much on the truck. I did however come across a 1-piece kit for the side windows, and ordered it up today. Should look clean without the vent windows in there.

Re: 63 C10 SWB Dropmember Build
That is a Summit Racing column that my Dad had lying around the shop, and never got used. It could be a little "firmer" felling in the tilt and and mechanics, but overall is nice. I would like to eventually change it out for a Ididit, but works great for now.

Here is some progress from this last weekend. Got the rest of the accessory drive in and the Vintage Air AC bracket and compressor installed. I also managed to get the door aligned as best as possible and installed the PB front core support cross member. Just a lot of little things that needed to be addressed. I got the CaptainFab brake booster bracket installed, and fits awesome! I originally got a 88-98 booster, but was too large (11") and hot the coil pack on the valve cover. I needed up finding a 85-89 Astro Van booster that is about 9" and clears. I am running into this problem due to the drop member raises the engine 2". Normally the 88-98 would have worked. |

Trucks looking good! Will that steering column work with a stock steering wheel? Keep them updates coming!

Re: 63 C10 SWB Dropmember Build
Did you have to buy the Kwik AC bracket separate or does it come with the vintage air kit?

Re: 63 C10 SWB Dropmember Build
Looks really good! Do you think I could run the same assesorie drive with a Camaro intake, Camaro water pump, and the water pump spacers?
