Wow thanks that's what keeps me going!

Had some free time today to work on the truck. I got part of the exhaust system mocked yp. Used 409 stainless universal 2.5" kit for the pipe. Plan on using magnaflow polished stainless mufflers also.

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Very nice! Stainless is the way to go!

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Thank Mike. Still need to make an H pipe and finish mufflers.

Lowrodder chev I didn't know you knew how to read. I guess we both learned a new skill right!

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Haha good times. Glad caddy is all together now. My final welds will be done by a pro ��

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Where did you source your exhaust piping, somewhere local or online? Ive been thinking of doing something similar.

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

I bought a universal Flowmaster stainless kit on ebay 2.5" stainless. Bought stainless hangers and turbo style clamps on ebay also.

I spent all day and evening at the body shop today. We got 3 coats of sealer and 3 coats of the Olympic white painted. On Monday we can start color sanding and get ready for last three coats then we can start on the red.

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Looking good man! That's cool body shop is letting you get your hands dirty there too!

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

I love seeing paint in progress, nice work.

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

That thing looks laser straight!!!! I can't wait to see it done

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Thanks everyone it feels good to have some color on it. All of that sanding and blocking pays off in the end.

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Very nice!

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Today we were able to get the cab in the booth and sprat the sealer and 3 coats of white on the cab.

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Cant wait till Im at that point, looks great.

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Thanks

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

That's got to be exciting!!!

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

Yes it has been alot of up and down with the paint process but is coming out great!

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build
 

It's been awhile since I have updated the project. We got all the red sprayed and plan on cutting and polishing everything this week
If everything goes as planned reassembly should start next week!
