New to this board
Just want to introduce myself, my name is Howard. I have an 84 c10 stepside. Ive had a few fleetside trucks but always loved the stepside look. I'm gonna do a cpmplete restore on it. Frame and all. Here are a few pic of what it looks like now. This is how I bought it 3 months ago. The white one is my uncles. His is an 87. He is also gonna fix his up.

Re: New to this board
This is the look I'm going for. I am thinking about keeping it blue or changing it to torch red. With the 89-91 chevy or gmc grille

I used to live in Olive Branch! Moved here 3 years ago. I think I know where this photo is taken. Service road off 78, near Kraft and Goodman? It does look nice!

Re: New to this board
Love the truck! I had the same steering wheel in mine when I got it. Those GT Grants are a booger to remove with an oreily wheel puller. (autozone's doesnt have the correct bolt size)

Re: New to this board
Thanks for all the compliments. Yes your pretty close to where it was taken. My dad works at a body shop off old 78 which is where it was taken. I actually put the steering wheel on so I could put on the grant anti theft pop off steering wheel. I will get a better one later, I had that one left over from the last 87 I had. Just never put it on.
