I'm Back at it..... C10 #2 Punishment for my stupidity

Hey guys, I'm back at it. after my last build turned out great from info I found all over this forum, I made a huge mistake of selling it to my brother-inlaw, who promised to keep it in the family.... he lied... so I never got a chance to try and buy it back. Since then I have been searching for a new C10. I lucked out talking to a friend at my new workplace who hooked me up with my new beauty. she's a little rough, but she has no major rust, and sturdy bones. barely any body damage, and all original from 1970. I do plan on doing a shortbed conversion, but luck would have it, my friend also has a factory shortbed sitting in his yard so I only have to cut the frame. Well, wish me luck, here we go again.

Welding is a lot like sex, you don't have to be great with the rod as long as you thoroughly prep the surface and your good at grinding
My build : 68 C10 Short Bed Conversion

interior and engine... notice the heads on the engine aren't drilled on the ends for brackets, I believe this to be the original block, haven't run the numbers yet.

yeah, already pricing a cross member from a square body... much cheaper than aftermarket kits.
