I guess it's time to post my old project...

Hi guys...

been reading on this site for a while. I figure it's time to post up my old truck. I've had this '86 C10 since spring of 1988... my senior year of high school. It was my daily driver from then until November 2002. It's been with me thru thick and thin. It's now got over 230K miles on the original 305... on it's 3rd transmission (original th350, then rebuilt, now 700r4). I put on Bell tech spindle and flip kit back in 1989 or 90. I've always had Rally's on it.. 8's with 295/50s in the back. Back then i had 7's with 245/60's on the front.. now 225/70s on 6.5's.

It's an original black Custom Deluxe with black vinyl interior. I repainted it once back in 1992 and now it's time for it's final restoration. It's seen it's share of moving, towing and abuse. There were times i thought of selling it, but i just couldn't do it. I still love this truck!

I just got it back on the road recently after a 8 yr hiatus..

It will remain pretty much the same look.. just freshened up. Then i'll finally swap in that 400 i've been hiding in the shop just for it.

I am glad to see the strong popularity of these trucks! I was hooked way back then and will always be! The '73-87's are my absolute favorite!

Jeff
