first time 65 c10 rebuild

okay new here, first time posting on here. I'm not new to building and tinkering but i am new to restorations. My great grandfathers 1965 c10 short wheel base has been in the family awhile and before now it had sat for 10 years and got in pretty bad shape. So far we have sandblasted it for the most part and primed most of it. i don't have many pics of it in it bad condition but will soon post pictures of its current condition and hope to have some help on the stuff I'm not so sure how to do. Also it is currently completely taken down and is in pieces to work on separately.

Re: first time 65 c10 rebuild

and good to see a new build!!
If you can load your photos to a computer it is easy matter to right click them and rotate left or right 90 degrees before posting them here.

Too bad you dont have before pics though,,,,, I sure do like a "Saved from the grave" build !!

Good luck, hope to see you here a lot.
