Howdy, I've been lurking on this site for years. I signed up a few months ago but this is my first post. I have a '71 C10 Custom Deluxe 350/350, P/S, P/B, A/C, etc. I've owned for 23 years and have kept it mostly stock except for the A/C, HEI and internal regulated alternator. I just got done switching the A/C to R-134a. Before that it was rebuilding the fuel system after the fuel went bad from sitting and wreaked havoc on everything. It was in an accident about a year after I bought it and a couple of years after that a large tree branch fell on it. I have the pieces to repair it but was waiting until I was ready to repaint.

Thanks, all. I should have mentioned that the tach isn't original but from a big truck cluster I picked up years ago. It also had a vacuum gauge but the tin and lens didn't support it. I also tow this 22' '68 Silver Streak Sabre with it.
