Re: 1968 C10 Stepside Restoration Project

The last photo above is showing that you also need to drill out the two spot welds outside to the left of the 'seam'...right of the seams on the driver's side.

Finally, after removing the two bolts, the dash is free.

Here is a better look at some of the damage. I had already started cutting out what I could with the dash in.

Second photo I have cut out some more, wire brushed, and applied Rust Mort.

Re: 1968 C10 Stepside Restoration Project

So, in my attempt to recreate a period correct ranch truck similar to one my uncle had on his dairy farm, I decided to add a Unity GM spotlight. I picked up a really nice used spotlight off of eBay and was happy with how nice it was. All I need to do is replace the wire...easy-peasy. The bracket I ordered separately from Unity, it is the left handed Kdriver side) 202 bracket.
