Re: Recreating Dad's 62 C10

Well, I had a productive weekend. I was able to start getting ready for the swap meet coming up in Decatur. Tore the grill and fenders off of Big E's 62 that will be selling. Also, added some 6 lug 10 inch wide steelies that came with my 61 I purchased a couple weeks back.

The front end for the 61 was dismantled along with the cluster and column removed. Spent some time sorting through all the parts.

Hoping this weekend to dismantle some more parts off the trucks and get the trailer loaded up and ready for next Thursday.

I have two 6 lug rear ends, trying to figure out which one we should go with. One looks bone stock to the 62 and the other may be a posi from the 70s. The posi would require some welding fab. Not a big deal though I guess.

Also, wanting to pull the 400 out of Big E's 62 so I can take the heads and intake to sell. Remember I picked up a 68 chevelle 327 with double hump heads. I am going to use those heads for the 400.

Lots to do! Pics to follow.
