Re: 72 c-10 shorty
got the rest of the cab sprayed and officially finished as far as paint work goes. got the inside of the glove box door painted, found a small little dent on the face side so will fix and paint today. the doors are finished now other then the white around the tops of the doors. hope to finish off these little things today and get the steering hooked up so I can move the truck to my buddies place to start buttoning up the cab and get the glass in.

Re: 72 c-10 shorty
got more done in the last couple of nights. I managed to get the heater box in, installed the windshield,cut the holes in the firewall for the fuse box, and got the alternator installed. making progress, would like to get the door glass in and the hood on before Im comfortable leaving the truck outside. got my new front inner fenders today, hope to paint tomorrow after work!

Re: 72 c-10 shorty
I'd say we should have a contest of whether I can get my mirrors on before you get your inner fenders in but they way you're moving along I'd say I'm already beat! That orange really pops in the pictures, I'm looking forward to seeing it in the metal sometime.

Re: 72 c-10 shorty
It was my birthday yesterday, so I got to decide what I wanted to do. we did a family dinner with my dad and his lady friend. my brother in law is up visiting so after dinner we ended up out at the shop! brother in law and I ended up getting all the wiring plugged in under the dash. down to a dash pad and some heater cables and the underside of the dash is finished!! cant wait. need to start cleaning up more parts and get the inner fenders painted.

Re: 72 c-10 shorty
decided to try and repair the old grill surround and see if i could make it go one more trip. I body worked, paint striped and primed it. and for fun sprayed some aluminum paint on it as a guide coat for when I block sand it out. if It works out great, and if not im sure it will get used as wall art at least until someone wants a painted surround.
