My new "old" 72 work truck. Thanks to all you members for your advise!

Back in 1972 my grandfather and my dad opened American Marine, a boat repiar shop. He had a 1972 c10 as ther first shop truck. Fast foward 40 years and I wanted to somewhat of a tribute truck to my grandfather who we lost 6 years ago. So here is my version of a shop truck. Not quite his beat up c10, but I have no doubt he would approve.

The powerplant is a sbc 350 that my grandfather built in the early 70's. He built it for a project that never came about. Sat in storage for almost 40 yrs and with a little tlc she fired right up and has been going strong for almost 2 yrs now!!

Thanks to all you members for your answers and support when I was in a jam!!
