The Gouldenrod

[Mac the Yankee]

So, here is my latest venture- a '72 C10 long bed. Mrs. Yankee and the little
Yanks have compared it's color to the result of a blown-out diaper, the infamous Colonel from the game Clue, as well as certain brands of mustard, hence the name "the Gouldenrod". How did I wind up with this little nugget?

Back in April, I was hit head-on in my OT '94 Hooptie-Jeep, and the '56 was nowhere near ready, so I started looking for an inexpensive daily driver to use in the meantime... well, I wound up buying what turned out to be someone else's stalled project (will NOT do that again) that has been a bit of a handful.

The immediate plan is to finish going through the brakes (all new lines, calipers, cylinders, etc), replace the clutch and get the 307/3 speed back in, put a tank in the back, and run new wiring.
