My first project 69 c10 lwb - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My name is Kenton. This is my 69 c10 lwb. All thoughts and suggestions are welcome. In debate on color at the moment. It's a 250 c.i. 3 on the tree. More pictures to come weather permitting.

Looks like you have a good truck to start a project with. I just bought a '70 c-10 the other day, my first project too. Yours is in much better condition to start with though from what I can see in the pictures. What are you wanting to do with the truck?

original_ky · 12-06-2011, 11:52 PM

not real sure at this point. thats up for debate as well. right now just going to fix the few little body issues there are but otherwise no definite plans.

Is this pickup your daily driver?

original_ky · 12-07-2011, 01:12 AM

will be. just put in a new master cylinder and had the carb rebuilt. once i drop the battery in ill be driving it as i fix it up.

Right now I need to replace the passenger front fender and rocker panel as well as the inner fender well. After that's done the debate on paint color, wheels, and ride height begins. That and I'm considering doing a few upgrades on the 250 inline 6 that's in it. All thoughts are welcome.

What kind of paint ideas do you have in mind?

original_ky · 12-08-2011, 02:46 PM

As odd as it is I kind of like the black and white pattern the primer is in at the moment so thats a possibility and I thought about just going black but I'm not sure. Always up for ideas on color choice. The inside is an off green which ill have pictures up of in a bit.

So here are some more pictures of what I'm working with as promised. Would love to hear some imput.

original_ky · 12-08-2011, 08:38 PM

Anyone have a passenger side fender, inner fender well, or bedside they're willing to part with?

Ok so thoughts have changed and this will not be my daily driver for some time. Instead I've decided to save up and put a 350 under the hood and a Ford 9" under the ass. Should be an interesting project to say the least.

save your money and use the 12 bolt rear under it now

original_ky · 12-14-2011, 10:58 PM

The 9" isn't going to cost me anything. It's my dads and he's going to give it to me.
