Re: My 1970 c10 build!
The pics above is how it come home. A running, driving farm truck. Its a no air, no power steering, short bed, inline 6 250, base model. About a good 95% original truck.

Re: My 1970 c10 build!
What's your plans for it? Motor, tranny, paint? Looks like a solid truck to start with. Mine is close to the same color, are you gonna keep the blue?

Re: My 1970 c10 build!
I am going to do a stock original truck as far as the body and interior goes. The suspension, motor, and wheels will be brought up to date. Im keeping the inline 6. It will be brought back to life with a little attitude. Im putting a 4-6 suspension drop. Im getting a set of 18" white steelies with a set of stock centers to give it that updated stock look.

Re: My 1970 c10 build!
I got the frame completely out from under it yesterday and it was sad to look at it and think I drove it from the house to the garage just three weeks ago. Im sick to get this thing going back together.

Re: My 1970 c10 build!
I highly doubt it will be driving again by june 8. But keep me posted on future events. I would enjoy meeting up with some local guys to do some shows and rides.

Im pretty sure there wasnt a dry spot on this motor. Dont think it had a good seal on it anywhere.
