My first project.
Look what I found on Craigslist. A 1971 C10 stepside swb, Small block 350, Automatic 350 Turbo Transmission. Not running, PO says he crank it last Spring. This will be my first project and I look foward to sharing it with all of you. I welcome all comments and suggestions. I plan to crank it this weekend.

Re: My first project.
No matter how long it takes do it the way you want it done not what everyone else wants because in the end you have to be happy.

Re: My first project.
That' one heck of a nice starting point to have a really nice truck.
Get it running and get it safe and have some fun with it while you decide on what you want to do with it. |
