63 C20
I didn't want a truck payment so I am going to build one. It's a 63 C20 that I got from the orignal owners grandson. It has a/c,power brakes with a wierd booster. I plan on dropping it a few inches swapping motors, and 4 wheel disc brakes. Here's a few pics. I'll post more pics as i work on it.

Re: 63 C20
I decided to try and start it. Put a good battery in.Dumped some gas in the tank and down the carb. After about 4 tries with the key it fired up. It actually runs pretty good. Has a slight lifter tap but nothing serious.

Re: 63 C20
On a monthly basis, put the money you saved on a new truck payment in a savings account. After a few years, you will have amassed enough extra cash to build it however you like. Good luck with your project and Happy Holidays.
