Hello Folks, Over the summer I purchased 2 California trucks: 1967 K10 Short Stepside, and 1969 K10 Short Stepside. I live in upstate NY but have family in the SLT area who are storing/driving the trucks right now. Normally I would have a transport truck deliver the trucks to me in Cooperstown but one truck needs a lot of body parts that are found quite readily in CA/NV. Just wondering if anyone knows of someone who is knowledgeable in our trucks could do a decent job for a reasonable rate. The 69 would be easier to repair by finding a donor truck with a decent cab, doors, fenders, the whole works. Just thinking out loud here and wondering if anyone had any suggestions. The red truck requires some assembly since it was painted many years ago, and the blue truck is the rusty one.
