Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks

Here's my 63. Have done everything myself with help from my dad and some good friends along the way. Currently sitting with no engine because college life, but finals week is this week coming up, and then I'll be home for the summer and ready to put the good engine in. Kinda tossing around the idea of going to a 292 straight 6, but really want to drive it this summer. I have a thing for green trucks that always need attention, albeit some of that attention is self inflicted. I overheated the engine in the Dakota until it stopped running and kept putting oil in the c10 (about a quart every 50 or so miles) until I decided it was time to do a swap.
