NEw Kansas city guy here.

Hello all!

Nice forum you got going here. Been looking everything over and having a real good time with all the information available.

Just bought a beater of a 68 C-10 SB Step. Basic 350/350Auto. Its a mess, but will start tearing into the motor soon, just to check it out. The cab is totally rotten in all the usual places, needs cab mounts above the windshield etc.. I might consider a better cab if in budget,and local. Dont care if AC or not, just straight. Looking for a good windshield, but not in a hurry since other than doing burnout (hopefully soon), it wont be on the road until I get the metal work done and have fun with it working my b-hind off.

A little about me. Im a 35 Y/o married guy. Work from home as an artist, Die designer (stamping parts). I build abstract sculpture and just been trying to learn to work on cars.

I been mostly into VW's and Diesels, but started itching for a classic truck. I hate to say it but the 68 I just got was not my first choice, but just cant afford the ones I was looking at (Diamond T's, Hudsons, 40-41 fords, or a mini MACK, so none the less, this is what I am working with and hope to learn, have fun, and meet some interesting people along the way with the same passion for cars. If I do Finish it (are they ever). I will probably keep it and get another, or use it to finance yet another project, but the idea is to keep it, and have it as a shop truck, and park or sale the diesel, and get something a little more like these going.

Have a great day, the misses is home so I got to go see how here day was.

Bill

Later.
