Re: 4th Gen. C-10

Plans:

As She Sits:

1969 Chevy C-10 LWB with matching topper
307 engine with over 200,000 miles (1 rebuild at 160,000)
3OTT transmission (Not sure what gear ratio right now)
NO Power Steering
NO Power Brakes (Drums)
NO A/C
NO Working Radio
Stock Stance
Very little rust (that I know of) Mostly in the rocker panels

Our Plans For Her:

Get rid of the topper
350 ZZ4 engine with a Vintage Air Front Runner System (Anyone have one of these? Thoughts?)
700R4 Transmission and probably change the rear to 3.73 and change out the column for the automatic
Add Power Steering
Add Power Brakes and upgrade to Discs all the way around
Rebuild the front and rear suspension and change to a 2 1/2"/4" drop
Add Vintage Air System
Run 17/8's up front and 17/10's in the back (Not sure what wheels yet)
New gauge cluster
Remove the broken AM radio and put the delete panel back in. I plan to get some sort of setup to connect a smartphone to a stereo receiver via bluetooth.
Remove the bench and replace with 40/20/40 seat/console similar to the one in "It's Just a Pick-up"
Move the gas tank from the cab to the back of the bed

Paint scheme is going to be like the blue/silver truck but I am going to change out the blue for a dark cherry similar this.
