Title: My 31 year project
Post by: series60 on December 01, 2007, 10:34:05 am

Hi Folks,
Thought it was time to post a little about my 31 year old project. This 1973 C-20 has been in my stables for a long time and over the years I have made a lot of changes. Check it out here. http://www.thecyberguy.com/73pickup/31yearproject.html (http://www.thecyberguy.com/73pickup/31yearproject.html)

Wow, its rare that somone keeps the same project that long. Thats good work, I like the 350 valve cover badging on that 406  ;D

Are those factory buckets you picked out of the junkyard, or out of somthing else?

werewolfx13,
The seats are someones after market buckets. The biggest problem I have with them is they are made to fit someone 5'7" and I'm 6'1". If I could find a tilt steering wheel at the right price I would install it and then the seat would be more comfortable for me.

Ah, ok. Thats a sweet project, so many people would have burned out on it after that long.
