Re: 1962 stepside project by realvc
I've been doing some things on my truck but have also been working on other things too.
The power steering adpt. is mocked up.
I have 71 C10 rear end taken apart for new bearings and relocating the spring perches.
New rear coil springs are on back order.
The old rear end is out.
I've been working on the old jeep and doing some things on the vette. Also been working on the daily driver Z71 as needed. Buying tires and repair parts for these other vehicles takes money form the 62 project as well as eats into the 62's attention in the shop.
It is still a work in progress with a long ways to go. Everything on this old truck is so rusted together I've had to cut a lot of it off and order replacement parts that I did not plan on. Oh the joy of rusted iron.
I traded some of the 82 donor parts for the rear end for the 62. I cut the tailgate and back of the bed off the 82 and took them and the rear bumper to my grandaughter in Houston for her baby boy that is on the way. Her husband wants to make a changeing table out of it. Could be pretty cool.
