I sold my daily driver S10 ,so the 62 C10 is gonna have to do that duty till I get my 76 C10 up and running..
I know where all its little places are and there is only 1 that I consider a bit bigger. That is the bottom rear of the front left fender. The place I see on most of these 60-66 trucks. I have the patch panel already ðŸ‘
New front tires to match the rear are on order for Tuesday morning.
I sure do like it mo better ðŸ‘ðŸ˜ðŸ‡ºðŸ‡¸

1962 C10 with a 235 6cyl -- all of the drive train seems to be original. Some of this story is in the Side Lot Some people like a new truck. I liked the old ones.
That's a cool truck. I'd split road time between the that one and the '76 when you get it on the road (leaning more heavily toward this one as the default).

3 more recent pics of the 62 in the darker gray primer. Front bumper is on now and makes a huge difference. Also has new Milestar Streetsteel 255/70r/15s on the 8x15" Chevy rally's all the way around. 3 inch taller tires than the old ones. Rides, drives and scoots along so much better now.

I like it. Yours is the second post on old C10 forums I've seen this morning that said they are running that size tire/rim combo. I'm taking notes, hopefully I'll be ready for some rubber pretty soon.
