Not about to change now. Followed me home from MO last week. 50 year paint job, 6cl, three on the tree. Gun rack, farm mirrors and door/box art all selling points. Not exactly a lambrect truck but has character. About as stock as can be found right down to the owners manual and radio delete plate. Need brakes, wiring, ground and light issues fixed but rins and drives well. Flame away haters, lol.
Posted via Mobile Device Yaaah thats upside down. Posted via Mobile Device Maybe this one will not be upside down. Plans, get the mechanicals and electrical working like it should. Basic tune up, get all 800 j/k zerks to take grease and drive the sh!t out of it. I don't have enough time for nice stuff at the moment and hate cleaning stuff, but do not like driving something not anyone can own. Main function will be garbage hauler, backroad cruiser, conversation piece and implement for parking to close to $60,000 trailer queens, lol. Posted via Mobile Device I'll be damned that one's upside down too. Consistent! Posted via Mobile Device Not about to change now.

Re: Whole life as a truck...
63c10 thanks for helping w the pics. I will put some pics of the gun rack up later. Will hopefully not be upside down. My last toy was v8 fuel injected gour wheel disks. As much as i liked it, i am digging how simple things are on the c10 and knocking the dust off on my sae tools!!! Things make sense, only what u need and no aluminum/pot metal, sweet.

Re: Whole life as a truck...
No problem. And careful, there are quite a few pot metal parts....the heater control levers are the most notorious for breaking. Several places sell solid stamped steel arms...an upgrade I do recommend. Also....the notorious model B carbs are a pot metal. There are some other parts like the light housing for the deluxe heater controls...but the heater levers are the worst.

Re: Whole life as a truck...
Thanks for the pics. I'm sure that's similar to the one my truck must have had. I have similar holes inside my cab.
