I'm not sure where I've been but I'm liking what I'm seeing. Cool truck.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
 

Thanks Rian for the encouragement. We all need a push from each other.

Thank you so much.

So I got my rag joint today from Rockauto I have to say I am very impressed for what it cost.

The wife and I painted 3 sides of the shed today before the heat beat us. I bought some Sherwin Williams paint and I am very impressed with how well it laid on.

Temp inside the shed is at least cooler than outside. With a fan blowing on you it will definitely be workable.

Put one of my new push on door seals on today and then test fitted the door to see how it fit. The seal went on perfect.

I've got a lot of work to do on this fender. Not only the rust but it was hit in the fender well and buckled and pulled this back edge in.

https://c6.staticflickr.com/8/7038/2...d43fb46c_b.jpg20160619_205423 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

All my other gaps look pretty good not perfect but close enough for me.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
 

gaps look pretty good to me, as good or better than when they rolled off the assembly line. that would be a tough fix on the stretched fender. can you get another from salvage somewhere?

love the wheel tire combo… gonna be a beautiful truck.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
 

I have some updates to share. Been working on the doors and painted the grille and white part of the grille support. Also painted a bunch of interior parts.


Took you advice Clem and got another passenger fender. Came from a forum member. Customcab66. This is a fantastic fender had 2 pinholes in the bottom corner and a couple of small dents in the front. And the best part it was FREE!! Thanks again buddy I owe you.

Next up fixed the rust on bottom corner of passenger door and put some metal 2 metal over the smile face after I welded all the holes some one left after pulling the dent. Also some metal 2 metal on the inside bottom edge that was a beat up. No rust just ugly.

And that's it back to the daily grind tomorrow. It was a fantastic week. A little on the hot side but I kept cool under my shade and big fan blowing on me. I can't wait for some cooler weather. My basic recipe was painting and bodywork in the morning before it got hot and then stripping and welding and grinding after lunch when it was too hot to paint. The passenger door need to be blocked one more time and might be ready for paint. I have another parts order coming tomorrow. Have the patch and brace for the driver fender so I can get it repaired next and some new hardware for putting the grille back together, the Chevrolet decals for the grille, and some more misc interior parts. Hope to get the column all back together this week and installed.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
 

Nice progress Bret . Did you use the Honda seals ? Good call on the replacement fender , even better that it was free . There are some good guys on this forum . Keep up the good work and you'll be driving it soon .

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
 

Thank You.

Thanks Don. Appreciate all your support.

Thanks Martin. I did not use the Honda seals. I used the new clip on original kind. I got them from GMC Paul's. They fit perfect. Here is the link. The part# is 17880392

Scroll about half way down the page. http://www.gmcpaulstruckparts.com/60...ther_strip.htm

I know a couple of other vendors are selling these too. They are made by Precision.

It does have too much of a gap between the steering wheel and the column but I have adjust the outer column up as far is it will go. I think this is caused by the rag joint I bought. It is about 1/8" thicker than the stock one.

Maybe members from all over can help him grow his collection and send him a plate in the mail. Same pr e as a letter.


I sent him one from my home town, Port Elizabeth in South Africa and a difficult to find plate from Thailand.....

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
 

Thanks guys,

I shot the black on the grille support this morning, and then worked on my driver door. It is a mess. When I welded in my patch it pulled on the metal above it and caused a big oil can dent. I spent about 45 minutes hammer and dollying it back as best I could. It will need some mud for sure.

Oh well I have a new Champion one on the way I got off of Amazon. Getting very close to firing her up again after 3 years. Nevermind all my wiring it has not been tied up yet.

Have some massaging to do to get the top bracket to fit properly. It seems the Champion radiator is quite a bit taller than the stock one. It fits fine without the rubbers in.

Couple more pictures. The gas gauge works. I never had it hooked up before the resto so happy about that. Need to clean all the sawdust off of it.

Everything is just about hooked up just need to fill the tank with gas and go through and double check everything. Still need to hookup vacuum from distributor and the pcv valve.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
 

So I started on Monday to start this thing and after 2 lower radiator hoses leaking and then the weep hole in the water pump leaking. I had to order a new pump. I bought one from Amazon a brand new AC Delco because all the parts stores had was store brand rebuilt. So it arrived yesterday and of course I had to paint it.

My wife wanted to start it. After all it is her truck. So here is the video. One happy mommy. Couldn't have come at a better time either because tomorrow is my birthday and I just earned all kinds of brownie points. Only downside she asked if we could drive it around the block and I had to tell her there are no brakes! Next on the project list though.

Thanks Greg

Clem I would love to come. Hopefully in the near future. Your place is so fantastic. I would have a grinectomy from spending time there.


Well I haven't done anything to Jaybird. I have really run out of steam and just have no motivation to work on it. I did however have a new windshield put in and the original back glass installed.

This guy was a pro. 17 years installing vintage auto glass. He had both installed in under an hour in the first try.

And my favorite thing a before and after pic. This before pic was taken right when the tear down started July of 2013. You will notice there is about 6 inches on the bottom center of the gasket that is gone. One of the things that prompted to take the windshield out. And when I took it out it fell apart.

Looking good!

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
 

This is all so good to see.

I know what you mean with running out of steam.

Side projects help though.

I restored a 63 VW beetle 25 years ago and ran out of steam just as I bolted the front and rear bumpers back on, fortunately all that was left was the hubcaps.

My life is a bit screwed right now, but I do look forward to phase two of my trucks build, there may also be a phase 3,4,5 but that OK too.

Have few updates for the truck. I will be honest I ran out of motivation to work on her but after not doing anything for 11 months I finally got some "Mojo".

I lost my storage spot for my old car so I had to move it home to my garage. This is what brought my mojo back. She wasn't running. In order for her to take my wife's parking spot she had to run and drive so I could move it around.

She barely fit.

I remedied that by tucking the bumpers.

I got her running and driving so she can be moved around. Still needs a new trans.

Ok on to the truck.

Started off by installing some parts I got for Xmas last year. New dual horns, chrome TC cover and the front brake lines.

Also bought new rear shoes, MC, and rear axle brake line. Took me 2 hours to locate this box of parts for the rear brakes. They have been patiently waiting in this box for 3 years now.

Next I finished up the passenger door. It is about 95% there.

Door installed on truck. It fits pretty good. I just watched on youtube how to get that lower corner pushed in some more. Will give that a try when I get a chance.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
 

Great to see you back Bret.

If you stored those brake parts in my shop for three years they would be perfectly patina' by now.

Door looks great as do tucked bumpers.
