Hey everybody
I have been lurking for a long time enjoying everybodys projects. I recently got a 1977 c30 with a l6 292 engine and sm465 trans. This truck is a cab and chasis truck and has hydroboost brakes. Its a diamond in the rough with emphasis on the rough. I have a softspot for old heavy duty trucks ,learned as a dairy farmers kid. My plans are to make it look like a clean stocker.

Re: New to posting
Thanks for the welcome. I love looking at other peoples pix but it didn't occur to me that somebody would want to see mine. I got the truck in a non picture taking friendly place,working on it. I will get it moved pretty soon.But I warn you ,its pretty rough. I found a guy who will sell me some body parts that are much better than what I have and pretty cheap.
I'll get some pix up soon. |
