Re: 1963 C-10 in NC
Red head steering box arrived today. I have nothing but good to say about Red Head Steering and their customer service and the quality of the part I purchased. Should be able to install this weekend, which is great. Now I can reinstall the steering column and steering wheel!!!!
One of these days I'll take the time to learn to rebuild one of these boxes, but for now....$241 well spent and with a warranty. And rcvd part within a few days of payment. Note: They also will rebuild your box and use custom colors. I was fine with black and the red top which is their trademark colors.

Re: 1963 C-10 in NC
Finally got through all the prep and masked off. Got 2 coats of primer down. Did some final sanding and a little glaze over some areas that popped with primer down. Color and clear tomorrow

Re: 1963 C-10 in NC
Thanks for the kind words guys. Glad to see this phase of the project getting done. Will work on the door reassembly this week. Still need to rebuild the vent assemblies with new rubbers. Did install new gaskets on the mirror arm, fuel filler (and hose and clamps), and exterior handles.
Had to fix a few pics that loaded funny. Tried to get good pics of the finish. I think I got less trash in this one outside than my last inside spray 17 years ago. Perfect weather definitely helped.....and tons of prep.
