Re: Uber Cool's 1963 C10 LWB Fleetside in England

Couple of jobs this weekend, new accelerator pedal fitted, so wont wear a hole in my shoe now
First job was to straighten the old linkage as I guess the PO had bent it to work without a pedal.

Managed to heat it with a gas torch without setting fire to the interior, which is always a good result

New rubber pedal in place


Next up I checked on the front brake hoses..............hmmm these are past their sell by date, news ones on order


checked out the front suspension and steering and made another list of required parts


Once i'd scraped off the old dirt and grease the suspension was in surprising good condition, needs a coat of paint before this goes back together.


this was from just one suspension arm


Next need to adaptor the lower arms and cross member to take the front air bags
