All,
As some of you may have read, I recently picked up a relatively solid 61 C10 short step side. It has its typical problems with a few additional issues to boot. Since it arrived in the end of October of 2007, it has been dismantled to a point of a cab on a frame with engine and tranny still in it. I have reviewed many posts on what to do about disc brake, power steering, etc options for this year and all of a sudden, in a local ad, I see the following:
1961 Chevy C10 short bed project truck. frames been sandblasted \ painted, now rolling w/front brakes converted to disc, w/2 1\2 " drop spindles, rotors, calipers, brake pads, wheels bearings all in place. 3 " drop coil springs in rear, 12 bolt rear end. new upper and lower control arm shafts. 4 new ball joints, have cab w/new rocker panels and cab corners not installed. complete drs, hood and 2 boxes of orig. parts, incl. windshield. have complete drs for ' 64 style. Have only front head board and a tailgate for the bed, no front fenders, have inner fenders. have $1500 invested, call w/an offer or for more info.
This may be a brother Stovebolter on here but either way, its about 45 minutes from my house. We all know, more parts are better than not enough but is this worth it? No engine or tranny comes with it? what should I offer if I should?
I'm thinking that with what I'd spend in drop spindles/disc brake conversion kits for $800+, this may be a better opportunity. Your thoughts?
