      1970 C10 from Ohio

      Here's my project. This all started as rocker panel and cab corner replacement. The body is almost done at paint and I recently got the chassis suspension back from powder coat and a rolling chassis built. But it's a '70 C10 that now has a 2005 LS2 and 6 speed, full 1993 Corvette suspension front and rear, full round tube chassis, custom headers, gauge cluster, tilt bed floor between the rear wheel wells to show off the chassis and independent rear suspension, shortened bed, custom exhaust out of the bed sides, custom hood hinges.. the list goes on. All the fabrication was done in a 3 car garage by a friend and I, from bending and welding the tube chassis to all of the subtle body modifications, I've had the truck for 11 years now I got it when I was 15 as my first vehicle. All the work done so far has been done in a 3 car garage with the help from a good friend/neighbor.

      Yes you did Rob! Bad thing is that it won't be back together to make it over there this year. But I'll be there to check everything out. I'll have to meet back up with you again!
