It's that time again... Post up your truck plans for this year?

Mine is to finish laying down the orange paint, fabricate and install a chrome "Pipe" front bumper and drive the wheels off the sucker!

Whatever your plans are, I hope you all have a safe and happy year. thumbs_up

I need a few things on my 65 C10. New battery, battery cables and battery tray. Repair or replace my leaky Rochester. Brake job all around. New clutch kit. New wheels and tires. New bed wood. Fix or replace radio. New wipers. Raise my left front fender about a quarter inch. Oh and my gas gauge quit working.

I hope to get seatbelts installed in the Firetruck this year (so my daughter will let me drive around with the grandchildren wink )

I'm going to get my heads torqued today and the engine back together. Then finish putting the windows and cab interior back together. Register and drive by summer! Happy New Year

time for me to get my 62 out of Milliman's garage. That means clutch adjustment, front clip and alignment.

Hmm, well so far, 3 point seatbelts and a stereo. Oh and replace my wonky clutch so my truck doesn't do a dance before taking off from a light grin Maybe get a 350 block for it and start rebuilding that while driving it with the six. Haven't really decided on that yet...might end up keeping the six.

I'm a lil late to the party on this thread.My plans are to get back to work on my chassis.Been a few years since I've done any work to it.By the end of the year I'ld be happy with just having the chassis complete.Got 3 teenage daughters,2 with their own cars,so my hobby income is rather tight for the time being.

A shot of it before I started the teardown
