70 C/10 from Cali to Illinois

[FrankieD]

I have been kicking around doing a build thread on mine so here it goes. I picked her up in February for $2400 and put her to bed till April when I could kick the wife out of the garage. She came from Modesto Cal. from what I understand the guy that did the work on the truck died and his son went out and brought mine and a 71 4X4 back. The truck had been painted blue and white the original color was gold. All it needed to put it on the road was tires, interior, front and rear glass then I got on this site and my mind started working.

So I went and bought a 72 for parts for $900. I took the glass and put it in mine then I wanted the 5 lug axles and disk brakes and it had a 350 which I thought would be a good swap for the 307.

Here are some pix of when I was putting her in the barn for the winter
