Re: ThreeQuarter's 1968 C10 Build Thread

Mechanically, the pickup was pretty sound. The frame has no cancer to speak of. Looks like he kept it well-greased! Among my regrets is that I did not keep more parts from the engine. The block and heads were far from the original, but I did not appreciate the number of parts bolted to it that were original. I let it go cheap because I thought I would just put a crate motor in and drive it. However, some time after I sold it my nostalgic sense kicked in and I started working to make the engine bay look like 1968. I also sold the trans, thinking I would put in something with an overdrive. All I have now are these pics.
