1965 C-10 in California

Hello, Everyone I started my build about a month ago. I started with a real rough truck by California standards. Maybe not by some of the trucks you guys started with. The truck had no engine or trans but pretty much all the body parts plus an extra cab. Original Cab had a bbw donor cab small window.We have stripped and painted the frame started on the body work. We also took bbw out of cab and put in donor cab. I plan on a driver with a 350 crate motor and a 700r tranny. This is my second build first was a 1965 # matching GTO. I really don't want to go that route again. I will start posting some pics. I just want to say This forum is great I have spent hours reading and have learned a lot. I want to thank all the members who post there builds.

Looking good! I was a happy guy when I finally got to see the frame all painted. That phase seemed to take a while. Your are making good progress!
