My 1979 Big 10 Build
Here she is before teardown. This picture is at least 10 years old.

Re: My 1979 Big 10 Build
This project was started in 2020. I'm using a 1985 frame and bed since it was pretty rust free.

Going back stock except for the 700 R transmission and lower the back 2 inches to make the truck sit level.

Re: My 1979 Big 10 Build
Does anyone have pictures of fuel line routing on a mid 80's 2 wheel drive with drivers side tank only?

Re: My 1979 Big 10 Build
As a owner of a 1978 Big 10, I love this.
My big 10 has a single Passenger gas tank, and yours doesn't appear to have a driver door or way to fill? |

Re: My 1979 Big 10 Build
Mine is passenger side only but the bed I'm going to use has dual tank fillers.
