1978 Big 10 restore-ish
Figured Id put up some pictures an some progress on my 78 big 10. I call her Mighty Whitey!
Bought her in Albuquerque NM, me and my boys bought 1 way tickets and drove her back almost 900 miles. Owner had just installed a crate engine on Thursday and when we showed up on Saturday it had a total of 80 miles on engine and 300 miles on transmission. Needless to say I was nervous about the long trip on an unproved engine. Took off and stopped on Lubbock for an oil change to get rid of the break in oil and continued home. Took us almost 14 hrs to get back home but so worth it! Not a single problem driving 55-75 MPH.. varying speeds on the rebuilt engine. These are some of the pics he sent me before i decided to buy the one way tickets. I can honestly say there is 0 rust on this truck. March 7 |
