Re: Project Pops (1980 C10 Build Project)

I took some measurements of the frame today. Looks pretty much dead on. I've included a pic of the original cab from this truck next to the donor cab. Notice a difference in height? Any guesses why? If you guessed a rotted out floor you would be correct. I had considered using the donor cab as a whole, but I really want to keep as much of the original truck as possible so I'm going to cut the floor out of the donor and restore the original. Also thought I would include a shot of the original drivetrain. I have a lot of work to do there to get that presentable, plus replacing all the seals and such.
