Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
It was a productive week on the truck. Got panels fitting and inner fenders installed. Put trim on back of cab and taillight bezels. Also put brake booster and steering column in. Tonight I installed rear bumper and fuel tank. Tomorrow glass guy is coming out to start on putting glass in. Getting so close!
