Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build

Looks really good! You are moving fast on this build.

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build

Man that looks GOOD!! Keep it up. :metal:

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build

Looks like you bought the GM Muscle Car oil pan kit. What kind of ground clearance do you have with that pan?

What is the paint code? My truck is that color (started that way anyway) but I can't read the code on the glove box door.

Any clearance problems with the Hooker cast manifolds, Porterbuilt and steering column?

Love the build.

I took in a fender and had them match the color since I'm going with the original paint, I wanted it to match the faded color rather than the new color. The GM color name is yellow green or olive green though.

The hooker manifolds fit great.

Oh man, that's awesome! :metal::metal:

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build

Love it, things gonna be badass when it's done...can't wait to see her rolling

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build

Rolled her out to get some sun! Entropy radiator installed and threw the fenders on.

Having the truck towed to get a full exhaust system installed, then brake, fuel, air hardlines.

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build

Thanks guys!

Towed the truck to get a new full exhaust system installed. Going dual 3" from the manifolds back with magnaflows and a H pipe.

Should have it back today and will post more pictures.

When I laid the truck out over the pit, the frame sat about 2" below the ground!
