Some pictures of my 72 C10 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

AWEGS72 · 03-23-2006, 09:43 AM

Here is my 1972 C10 CHEYENNE. I stumbled across it in some guy's barn when I was looking at some wood he had for making a cabinet. He bought it 14 years ago and was never driven in winter. It was stored outside for 1-2 years over grass and thats where he thinks some of the rust came from. It hasnt been driven for the last 10 years. It had headers, flex fan,and some other doodads on it to start with.
I put an Edelbrock performer intake,carb,valve covers,air cleaner,and thermostat housing on. I put on lowering shackles for the rear leaft to bring down 2-1/2",and had the springs lowered 2". I'm planning on starting with 2-1/2" lowering spindles for the front and see how it looks from there.

The previous owner had put on some accent lighting. There is a switch for:
An underhood light
An underbox light(shines on axle&undercarriage)
Cab clearance lights,
I dont know what the 4th is for
