« on: April 21, 2017, 09:41:01 AM »
Hi guys just joined the forum. I live in cleveland,TX and just bought a 79 c10 from my boss. I had a 76 probably 15yrs ago, that I have always regretted selling. Will be posting on here for some help in a few. For now just wanted to say hi.

Thanks guys, its pretty solid with the exception of some rust on the firewall/cowl area. I lined up a donor cab, core support and hood today to go back to the original 79 body style. I paid $1500 for the truck, and it came with a brand new dash pad, and all new front end stuff. It has drop spindles on the front, and a flip kit with shackles on the rear. 350 with a cam, torkerII intake, edelbrock 1405 carb that I rebuilt this week, coated headers, 3" all the way back with single chamber flow masters. Turbo 400, and 12bolt rear. Looking forward to getting it back on the road.
