1980 C10 "Big Green"
I've had this truck for just under a year now and I though I would post some of the progress and information about my build.
I bought the truck last March and it needed a lot of word. The only thing it had going for it was that it had every factory option in 1980 and that it had a newer 5.3 LM7 installed in it. But within a month the truck was down to nothing but a rolling chassis and cab. Most of the front end was replaced with new fenders and hood. Everything else was sandblasted. Every piece of trim replaced as well the headlights, mirrors, door handles and well everything. This is what it looked like when I bought it |

This is when the final assembly stage was complete. Took almost 8 months to complete but the outcome was amazing considering that the build was put on a tight budget.

I don't know what the deal is but about 90% of the pics are red x's.
