New guy from NJ
Hey all,
Thought I'd join the crew after lurking for a few days. Recently got a 72 C-10 shortbed stepside...pretty rough shape, but restorable. Will be a longterm project in my free time. I will be doing ALL the work myself..sheet metal repair (including rust) body work, fab work, frame & suspension mechanical etc. as well as paint. This isn't my first attempt at restoration...I have done 2 69 camaros, 2 chevelles & a 76 K-10 in the past..all were presentable, but not trailer queens...I DRIVE all my vehicles ! Looking forward to th  is latest project as I have always like the looks of these trucks, and Yes...I am a True Chevy Fan !

Re: New guy from NJ
Thanks guys.....I will post some pics of the build soon....I have the truck stripped down to the frame & have a homemade dolly supporting the cab so I can roll it around my shop to work on the rockers,cab corners & floors. Lots of cutting, fitting & welding going on right now .
