Welcome to the forum Brent
Looks like a decent truck. What all needs to be done to get it on the road?

Welcome.
Yes, you need a taller garage door. And get some cardboard under that motor! Now!

It needs a radiator which I just ordered a 3 core from eBay with efan. Gotta get a new starter, drain old gas, plugs, wires, etc... I pulled the valve cover and changed oil. Valvetrain looks great and has roller rockers and huge valve springs. Hopefully everything else works fine and I will have it going in a couple weeks! Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Just bought my Dream Truck 66 C10
You're pretty close to me. Lots of places in Kansas City to buy parts for these old trucks. Sounds like you're excited about the new purchase! Welcome aboard!

Re: Just bought my Dream Truck 66 C10
Welcoms....great looking truck. How about some pics of the 396 under the hood. We have a couple of guys doing big block swaps.

Welcome from Arizona. I like seeing anything 4x4, original or converted. Looks like a great start for a tough looking truck.
