Re: My 86 C10 - to build or not to build? Your thoughts?

first off as someone who has done several restorations on these trucks you need to assess the frame. If the frame has surface rust and no rot the truck is prolly in good shape.
From the limited pictures here it appears your truck has the normal wear and tear for this genre. It looks worth fixing from here.

For th e bed id recommend a spray in bedliner like duraliner. that will take care of back there. It will need to be prepped correctly and all but they can install that.
Can you take some pics of underneath the truck and dead on from all around showing the truck sides and nose?
