gota start some where
Well here is my project C-10 so I have somthing to work on for the winter, I put my spare work/winter beater truck a 97 tahoe on craigs list for sale or trade for c-10, well as it turned out a guy I know from town seen it and wanted to trade me for one of his c10 projects that he had already started so after a little back and forth we struck up a deal and i went and loaded up the c10. He had already striped it to the frame and sprayed bed liner on the frame, I would of rather used the POR 15 that i did my chevelle with.
The 6 cyl was swaped out for a fresh built 350 with a miled cam, dual plain intake, summit racing holly nock off carb and headers backed by 3spd trany new clutch. put a small C noch in frame and droped it 5 in the rear and 4" in the front. The 70 C-10 was 4 wheel manual drum breaks so did a power breaks with a disc break conversion in the front, some day i will get the rear as well. Lots of work to be done yet and parts to order, i think baging it will be first on the list its just not as low as i would like to see it.
