Re: 72' C/10 Deluxe

so I bought 5 more 5on5 origional rims for the truck, brings my wheel total to eleven..... I have some questions on a couple of them, they are black and slighly deeper, is this normal or am I insane for thinking they look deeper? also truck is slowly chugging along at my friends house, he works on it when he can, and I am scouting my LMC catalong for all the parts I need. I definately should be checking on here first though.


if you have any of the following please dont hesitate to send me an PM or a email

1972 parts

passenger side front fender
new door handles
driver side window regulator
new door locks for both doors
front bumper
front grille
front grille trim
maybe a new hood, i might straighten out the nasty dent in mine
LED taillight conversion kit

also taking suggestions on side mirrors, want a cool looking pair, preferably paintable but not tucked in close to the truck

Re: 72' C/10 Deluxe

I've gone through a few manifolds and carbs for 350's and my favorite combo so far was a Edelbrock Victor Jr. and a Edelbrock 1406 carb (a pretty basic 4bbl, unless you want to get fancy and pick up an 1806 )

Re: 72' C/10 Deluxe

for the carb we actually decided that the most efficient application right now is to keep the 2bbl with the original rear end, and we will swap the TH350 for a 700R4 so with over drive ill get fantastic gas mileage... as for performance im going to build a 383 or a 400 small block for it. but that's only after i have the body work done
