Re: 1964 C10 fleet side swb

So the only places on my truck that still have original paint are hood, cab and tailgate.

New doors/fenders and took bedsides to bare metal for metal repairs.

I sanded down to original best I could and hit bare metal in some spots.

I found some blueish colors in a few spots on each panel between cream and brown primer.

So I found something close and am going to fill in the bare metal. Did some of the tailgate today and it it looks cool to me.

Going to tryout some Griots Garage wipe on clear on it as well later this summer.

This is under stock paint in a few spots.

And this is what I did to tailgate.

Re: 1964 C10 fleet side swb

On the ledge about doing a cam in my truck now that Ive got some miles on it.

Was recommended a btr stage 2 truck cam. Then would aldo do springs, push rods and some other items while doing it. Like timing chain, front main seal, oil pump etc...

Wanting a little lope and some added hp/trq.

I believe that's what my buddy went w/for the 5.3 in my old '90rcsb OBS. He hasn't gotten it running yet but it seemed like a good choice.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
