New 70 C20
Well I have been reading alot of posts on this site(By the way this is a great site). And I guess its time for me to add one more. I have a 70 C20 LWB that was my dad's before he died (going on 3 yrs now) it was gave to me not long after he passed away. And its just been seating on the side yard and hauling wood every winter as of now. I was talking with my wife (Jenny) so we set a budget (not much for now but I will make do). Its going to take some time before I complete this truck, but I know its goning to be a good project remembering him as I work on his truck.

Re: New 70 C20
Welcome , I bought my '72 with some money I got from my grandfather before he passed away. So even though it was not his truck, I remember him when I work on it, and it will always stay in the family.
