Another find
I picked this up last week and thought if share, unsure of plans. 1968 c10, stepside, swb, p/s, straight 6 with power glide tranny. Runs and drives but thinking it needs a few upgrades to be a great driver

Re: Another find
Thanks, red is all that finds me. If I could I'd have a olive green one or baby blue one. But I've got a couple ideas for it and it'll be unique if I decide to keep it 100%

Re: Another find
Thinking about pancaking front member, drop coils and disc brakes in front and coils and a notch in rear and white walls and dog dish caps. Fix the rust and put interior back stock and add some vintage air. Unless someone wants it more than me

Re: Another find
Sounds awesome! If you need any help turning wrenches on it let me know! I might take it off your hands once I finish the orange truck but we'll see

Re: Another find
All that thing needs is a new front bumper, fix the trim on the hood, spray the wheels white and put a set of dog dishes on it. The paint fade is perfect.
