First Timer
Hey everyone,
Seven monthes ago I inherited a 1967 c10 from a family friend that died while I was in Europe, since then it has been sitting in my driveway. Now that I'm back I want to do something with it. Its in pretty good condition, the only problem so far seem to be a squealing clutch and a little under carriage rust, I think I am going to keep it all original. All suggestions and help are welcome, thanks a lot.

Re: First Timer
Welcome from New Mexico.
You will get answers to your questions if you post in the other forums. If it were me, I would get all the the mechanicals where they are reliable. 2nd--get the interior like you want it. 3rd---upgrade wheels and tires. 4th--save up for a good paint job. Most important--have fun. john

Re: First Timer
Welcome - enjoy the truck and be sure to get some seat time before you go tearing it apart so you can see how much fun these trucks are.
