I Bought this truck New in April of 85 .So we have been through a lot together .Unfortunately i had to put the truck back to some hard work after i had done the paint job and it did not hold up to well .I have just started to redo her and i want to do a drop 2.5 front and 4" rear will i have trouble up front with drop spindles I'm running p275 60 all around.
Thanks Bruce Meridianville, Al. |

Re: My 85 C10
Well first is to get it sitting like I want rebuild the whole front end everything is still original now with 235,000 miles on her. Then working on the interior thinking of going back to all Charcoal inside. Have added bucket seats and a console from an 83 blazer. Have a rebuilt 350 now with about 80,000 think of building a 383 or buying a crate stroker not sure yet.
More to come Bruce Meridianville,Al. |
