Last project 1964 C10

5 Attachment(s)

Here is a run down of my 1964 C-10 project. I just turned 60 yrs old and I think this will be my last build..so I maybe dump a bit more effort into it.
I started with a short bed frame I found on CL for $125.00 and added a Porterbuild suspension kit , 496 big block with FiTech EFI and Jones Racing pulley system , Turbo 400 Gear Vendors Overdrive and a fresh 12 bolt Posi.
I swapped in a Big back window and every panel is brand new..

I really like what you are doing with this one. These trucks look amazing in black.
What size wheels and tires is that?

It looks great! I hope you don't mind picking your brain a little. What kind of header did you use? Did you move the engine forward and what about valve cover clearance?
I am just about to start on my 65 swb I have all the parts to start just need a few more things headers being one of them.

I had to heat the firewall up and hammer it back enough to clear..plus the motor sets higher and no room for a power brake booster..I had to use a Hydroboost
