AFTER ABOUT 4 YEARS IM FINALLY GONNA PUT THIS THING TOGETHER! I BOUGHT A 68 C10 BACK IN 2009 FOR $800. ITS WASN’T GREAT (WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FOR $800 REALLY) BUT IT RAN AND IT WAS ALL INTACT (FOR THE MOST PART) SO I DROVE IT HOME AND PARKED IT IN THE BACK YARD. I LOST ALL MY PICTURES THAT I TOOK OF THE TRUCK WHEN I FIRST GOT IT AND SOME OF THE BEGINNING PROCESS SHOTS BUT I WAS ABLE TO FIND SOME ONLINE THAT I WILL POST UP THAT RESEMBLE A BEFORE SHOT. AFTER ABOUT 3 YEARS OF WALKING PAST THIS THING EVERYDAY DOING NOTHING TO IT I GOT FED UP! MOST OF IT WAS FINNANCIAL ISSUES AND SOME OF IT WAS JUST PLAIN LAZYNESS
HAHA. BUT I GOT MY S**T TOGETHER AND STARTED TEARING INTO IT TAKING IT DOWN TO THE FRAME. I REMOVED EVERYTHING FROM THE CAB STRIPPING IT DOWN AND ROLLED THE FRAME TO THE SIDE. MY PLANS ARE TO FIRST OF ALL DITCH THE LONG BED AND CONVERT TO A SHORT BED. I WANT TO KEEP THE TOP (BODY) MOSTLY ALL STOCK EXCEPT FOR THE PAINT JOB WHICH I WANT SOMETHING CANDY (HENCE THE NAME OF MY TRUCK/BUILD). THE FRAME WAS GONNA GO UNDER EXTENSIVE SURGERY SINCE I WANTED TO BUILD A BAGGED TRUCK THAT LAID FRAME. I HAVE A LOT OF WORK AHEAD OF ME SINCE MY DAD AND I ARE BUILDING THIS IN THE BACK YARD WITH LIMITED SPACE. THIS IS MY FIRST TIME BUILDING A C10 AND IM STILL PRETTY NEW TO THE FORUM SO ANY INFO OR FEEDBACK ANY OF YOU GUYS CAN KICK BACK WOULD BE APPRECIATED. I HOPE YOU COME BACK AND CHECK UP ON THE PROGGRESS OF MY BUILD. ILL BE POSTING PICTURE UP SOON HOPEFULLY ILL HAVE A COUPLE UP BY THIS WEEKEND
