Todays Spotlight : Live Rust |

Thank you Live Rust for sharing with us.
This was a photo we took of my 1966 Chevy/GMC K10 in a Tabaco Field along the Connecticut River in Hatfield MA. This was the fall of 2019, Covid was pretty serious at the time and my girlfriend and I spent a lot of time in the truck as there wasn’t much else to do.
Its an original 1965 GMC 4X4, rebodied in 66 Chevrolet metal and powered by the big V6, 4 speed with Granny of course.

Todays spotlight is on 71CHEVYSHORTBED402 and here is his story
click here for the discussion post
I purchased my 71 C-10 Custom Deluxe in 1989, and am the second owner. The original owner special ordered it locally with an interest in recreation. The truck had everything from a boat launching hitch to a CB, fifth wheel, camper, step bumper, saddle tanks and camper mirrors. He even ordered leaf springs, so that with a SWB makes this frame very rare. Rare doesn’t mean desirable, it’s about impossible to obtain bumper brackets for this frame. For the poor soul☺ who he needs them, a good set of OEM “coil spring” brackets are a good start for welds, cuts and re-drill. Those are the set with shorter inner brackets. Bumper placement approx. 8” behind the frame rail should about do it, at least for a sport bumper.

Never mind I had very little knowledge of Chevy, I knew near nothing about mechanics when I bought this truck. I wasn’t exposed to it, and to some extent feared doing things I’d never done before. 4-5K in tools & materials later I’ve learned so much. I only knew the truck was cool with something called a big block. It was parked on a corner of the main drag, inside my old territory. Literally, I had a paper route or two as a kid. I know the area so well even my ex-wife worked a few doors down for many years. Heck I was chased by a dog two doors down, you got to watch out for some white labs man, a good Schwinn bike does the trick though. That tiny car lot is so small it remains a car lot 10 business names later, the space is otherwise useless.
