Hi everybody,

I'm new to the boards and have been reading a lot in here in the hopes to get my '78 C10 up and running reliably again. I'm not familiar with working on vehicles and I'm hoping this will get me going in the right direction. I see a lot of support in this forum so I'm excited to join the posts!

This is a pic of it getting ran to the shop to pass smog and for them to see what else it needs.

Looneybin · 07-14-2013, 03:54 PM

my junk.

1985 custom deluxe, 305, 4 speed, 4.5/5 drop (flip kit, drop spindles, coils, upper control arms, shocks)

has some dings and is my new daily driver, but I love it.

future plans are to drop it more and drive the hell out it.

Badass truck. I should have got that style wheels for my 86. I think I am going to get the Billet Specialties bonneville G's for my patina'd '68 I just picked up.

Here is my '86 currently.

Wow, that is almost exactly how my truck it going to end up. Wheels and all. Just started the savings fund for the wheels. I think I want the silver just a tad darker though. But that is a drop dead gorgeous truck.

Bbbc10- Thank you for the nice comments. To be honest I'm not sure what wheels they are. I faintly remember showing up one time and these were just staring at me. Always wanted to know why he chose the white wheels. I inherited the truck from my dad and it hasn't been driven in about 4 years, so I decided I needed to get it going again. There are a lot of things I wish I could have asked him as I'm getting it going again but now I don't have the chance.

Jpnh- Yeah one of the good things about So Cal is the nice weather, most of the time. It has some dings and such but I'm going to try to learn as much as I can about the engine and other general stuff. I plan on using it to pick up Home Depot stuff, furniture, etc. so I want it to be as reliable as possible. Then I'm going to get the paint job up to snuff! I wish my dad had some pics of it when it was new. I would love to see how it looked with the pin-striping.

Hi all... first post for me. I've been browsing this forum for the past couple of years and have learned a lot.

1978 GMC C15
350/350TH

3 inch DJM drop spindles and one coil removed
5 inch Western Chassis Flip kit and 2 inch drop shackles (no notch yet)

Did a LWB to SWB conversion. This is currently how it sits.

mud.man.rj · 08-02-2013, 07:04 PM

Good start on the 78 C10. Like the short box conversion.
