Hey it might be NACHO cheese - cause those babies are HOT!

Love your ride!

PipsC10 · 09-12-2010, 07:46 PM

not the greatest picture but I started to mock up my throttle cable and kickdown, have to finish my pedal install next week.

ChuckDriver · 09-13-2010, 02:15 PM

Wow, everything looks great. Keep up the good work and keep the updates coming!

PipsC10 · 09-26-2010, 11:16 PM

these arent as interesting without pics but I have made some more progress. My pedal conversion is done, I am working on final fittment of the radiator and I am finishing the brakes. I am waiting for my booster and prop valve so I can mount it to the firewall and run the final lines. I got the booster and bracket from ECE that is supposed to bring the booster closer to the firewall and it sits a little lower. I also started to install my gas filler neck in the bed floor. When my parts arrive I am also going to put together my 71-72 grill. Im excited about that! I am taking some more parts to the powder coater next week and I am going to get some more pics when Im at my Dads shop next. Still on track for my start up date of Jan 2011! I threw a pic of my gauges and panel after I painted it, just a teaser I guess...

By the way I met 2 board members in the last 2 weeks. Rene (C10/King) and Jorge Lopez from Turlock, Ca (dont remember his screen name). Both were really nice guys and it was a pleasure meeting both of them. I hope to make it to Rene's for the valley meet.

Rene and Jorge (sleepertruck72) are definately among this board's finest. Rene heard I was looking for a rear window trim and PM'd me and gave it to me free. Jorge delivered some wheel tubs for me, saving me shipping and/or a two hour drive. They don't get any better than these two guys.

By the way, your truck is coming along wonderfully!

magwakeenercew2jh · 09-28-2010, 12:46 AM

I'm looking forward to the A****er gathering, too.

Hey, if anyone that's going to be there needs any stock air conditioning stuff- minus the register (dash)- it's yours. I'll bring it. I just pulled it out of the '71 donor cab that's off to the squisher due to rust disease.

And, if anyone coming has a passenger side inner fender that will fit the '68 cab/'71 frame combo, I'd love to get it from you on the 2nd.

Can't wait to meet a bunch of you folks.

PipsC10 · 10-03-2010, 02:28 PM

I love getting these boxes from UPS! After seeing all the bad ass trucks at the C/10 gathering yesterday I had to put my grill together so I could use it as garage wall art and inspiration!

PipsC10 · 10-04-2010, 11:26 PM

some progress is good progress I guess. installed some more parts for mock up. The booster from ECE is a cool piece. The wire looms I waited over a month for and I finally finished my radiator installed minus a few minor adjustments to come later. The gas filler cap is a work in progress.

PipsC10 · 10-04-2010, 11:33 PM

VA72C10 · 10-05-2010, 01:40 AM

I should have some updates this week. I am off all week due to work furlough so I plan on using all week to catch up on the truck. My fenders are with a body guy right now getting straightened out, and I hope to have them back this week. Not sure if I'll get any painting done this week. I got my vintage air unit and some more parts to mock up. As soon as my fenders are done I am going to take him my bed to straighten out. Its slow progress but its progress. Ill have some pics of stuff by next weekend.

PipsC10 · 03-12-2011, 01:24 PM

finished my gas pedal and got my vintage air unit installed under the dash. I will have more photos later on. These are all cell phone pics.

PipsC10 · 03-14-2011, 06:23 PM

as long as you make sure its turned a certain way when you start welding everything up its fine. Pretty tight clearance but I could still get a wrench in there to tighten it up. They are the Sanderson's from early classic
