Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
The great Southern weather visited this weekend and made working outside really nice. I was able to get a few things done and spend a huge amount of money in the process. Had my paint guy come by and do some work getting rid of the rocker and cab problems and a couple of other things.
Got the breather cover and valve covers in primer and got em sanded and put a little paint on the breather cover.
This paint looks incredible in the sun. The 327 emblems really set it off, but if I had it to do over they may not have been installed. I may have just pinstriped it a little.
Here it is. Finally! And still not complete. Some of the items he installed were needed, like the Corvette 1/8 in springs and hardened locks to handle the bigger cam. I chose to go with the roller rockers and comp rods along with, of course, a double roller timing chain. The 66 Vette manifold that I bought for it may not be used because of the carb that is going on it, that's why there isn't a manifold on it yet.
Had to get a pic with the valve covers on it, too bad they are still in primer.
It was really windy this weekend and even covering the cab really well we still had a little overspray get on it. No biggie, it was really light and should buff off easily.
