Alabama field find! 66 SWB, AC, V8, "Cropwell"
 

After building my turbocharged "JED" project, one thing I regret is that I never had an organized build thread that tracked progress. Now I have a second chance!

I found a C10 on C-list in the Alabama countryside. After discussing it (fyi, timing is everything) with my loving and understanding wife, she gave me the green light!

We loaded it in the rain. I jack knifed my truck and pulled in on with a tractor. The passenger wheel is lock up, so it was a bear cat to move.

Here is the build thread:

Do you plan a turbo for this one too?

Re: Alabama field find! 66 SWB, AC, V8, "Cropwell"
 

Haha! Nope, I'll just stick to turbo'd inliners, much easier plumbing.

Plan is to "power-stock" it.

Nice! I like the color. Quite a few forum members in the area...

Love the stance and those caps. Cool truck!

Got the exhaust on.

2" duals with Brockman Mellowtone Glasspacks, dumped at rear bumper.

I love the sound, totally 60's muscle. Brockman's are great people to buy from and even better product. Top notch!

Have a listen..
