Re: Looking into a 69 C10
Got the topper removed, full tune up done, started cleaning the inside out. Found the build sheet still under the seat which I'm glad because my glovebox sticker is unreadable. My timing is off a bit, not sure what the previous owner went through to get it running...he had a few things rigged up that didn't make sense. But my next step is valve cover gaskets, finding the right air cleaner and rebuilding the carb. Starting to get attached to the dang thing lol On another note, I have 15x8 rally wheels i will be putting on it, but my question is what size trim rings i will need? I believe i will probably need 15x3'' deep? Any help would be appreciated. thanks
I will get pictures tomorrow to keep everyone happy haha |

Re: Looking into a 69 C10
Yeah I'm about to pull the seat out this week and deep clean and clean the tank up. Previous owner messed with the timing a bit and it was running real rough but once I putt the new cap, plugs and wires on it I straightened the timing out. Runs much better, but need to tackle the passenger side exhaust manifold gaskets without breaking too many bolts off. Didn't get as far as I wanted this weekend but that's okay. Looks better without the topper

Re: Looking into a 69 C10
A little update on it...Got the rallys on it but still waiting on my trim rings and caps, letters put on the grill, and a spare tire mounted up underneath just to get the old holder from swinging around. Started really cleaning the inside and realized i better go with new carpet, so I've been researching the best place to get a good carpet kit at a decent price. Carb goes to get rebuilt tomorrow, and while its gone ill be changing a few gaskets. the seat still has the build sheet under it which is helpful since it sticker in the glovebox is wore. Built in Fremont, CA..Custom sport group, heavy duty shocks and springs all the way around, 3:73 rear, all that. Starting to get attached to it though!
