Re: The English are coming! Or..another C10 in the Motherland.

I hear you - the"original " plan was patina truck with immaculate interior and mechanicals. that way I don't have to worry about actually using it as a truck or parking it up and not worrying.
Will see what happens once the cab is done.

I also need to start a build thread to get some much needed enthusiasm :-)

The challenge comes with where do you stop... IF I paint the interior then do I blast it. If I am going to blast it do I take the windows out. If I take the windows out.... and so the snowball grows....

Fully expecting to change out some lifters and trays once I have the engine fired up but, hopefully I can put that off until I have a few miles under my belt. PLUS! I have the damn Christmas tree to pick up in Woody that has now become pretty much the only thing my daughter talks about....

Will wonder over and have a look at your build.

Thanks!
