Just been looking through the site, looks like lots of good stories and resources related to one of my vices.
I inherited my Dad's '64 C-10 about 10 years ago, got to admit it was almost not worth saving. However, it was the vehicle that brought me home from the hospital as a baby, the first thing I ever drove, and part of our family since before I was born in '68.
Had a bunch of parts and a 250 6-cyl powertrain from a '65 I had crashed back in the 80's, so spend a couple grand and a bunch of time 3 summers ago and patched it up enough to drive it, enjoy it, and work on it over the next few years.
Should have seen the old man's face when I drove it out to their place about 200 miles from mine, he didn't even know I was working on it!!!
Took lots of pictures, cab floor is done, will do cab corners when I pull the box to do the bed wood, needs new front fenders (LOTS of Bondo on these for right now), then new paint, but all in good time.
Right now it's lots of fun to drive, it's handy to have a pickup truck, and my boys (8 & 13) love Grampa's old truck.
Look forward to checking this site out regularly.
