New to the forum, love it already

Been a gearhead for a while. A few years back I did a 50 Dodge truck. I then tackled a crazy 47 International transplant onto a 95 Dodge Dakota.....still in progress so I decided I needed one that is drivable so I hunted and found this 62 C10 longbed fleetside. Has a 71 SBC 350 with an older Muncie granny gear 4spd. It definitely has been blessed by the PO monsters the more I dig into the truck. Some things that were done were quite good.....others not so good. I have been lurking, reading, bookmarking, and saving info as I make my plan. So far I want to create a good DD with some spunk and bling. Basic plans are to redo some undercab cancer treatment, new seats, re-do the wiring and guage panel, add 5spd or convert to auto, front discs, power steering, sway bar then finish the body work and paint it up a two tone with flames.

Welcome to the forum from North Idaho

That's a nice looking '62. At first I thought it was a '63 since it has a '63 grill.
