83 Chevy C10 1/2 ton

updated: Apr 11th 2013 @ 05:55 AM
Alright here's my new project. I've had her for 4 years and I have done a lot of work to her.  I know this is a mustang site but I believe you should know what I traded for. Still love mustangs but it's not my time for one.
 
 
I have put a lot of work into her. She has a rebuild 305 that is bored .040 over with a summit racing cam, summit racing intake, proform Timing drive set, Eldbrock 600 cfm carb, Accel spark plug wires, Ngk V power spark plugs.
Close to $1,300 is put into her right now. More is to come.

So it's been a long road since I sold my old mustang. A lot has happened since then. I've done a lot of work on this truck. Hell I have a honda again. Never thought I would make it this far really.  That truck is the best thing that happened for me in along time. 90lbs later, Several mood swings later, I'm here again. On the brink of building a Honda Accord Lx sedan. Same feelings I had with my mustang. Same feelings went towards my truck. Wish me luck. I will be back from time to time with updates.

So it's been a long time since I updated this page. I have done a lot more to this truck. I pulled the heads off and put umbrella seals in. New head gaskets and intake gasket. Bolted it all back together and well ran like crap. So I have been fighting it for two weeks. I just got the timing issue fixed. Still runs freaking hard but I think once I adjust those ticking rockers it will be better. Hope so. It's been sitting all winter so yeah the carb might be a bit plugged up too. I've been on C10forum.com and well, I gotta say it's very different world. Heck, going back to imports, man its all different. Domestic or import. Just different. If you think about it, I left when obama became president, and I have faught my way back. Oh I did finish college about 5 years ago. That's the best thing that's happened. Well there's other stuff but I will keep it G rated lol. 5 years away from mustangs and there isn't a day that doesn't go by that I think about her. Heck I have learned to play my guitar somewhat lol.  Anyways here are some pics of what I have done to her in the last two weeks.

Hey folks, I was wondering if someone out there with an 88-93 Fox convertible could do me a favor.  I am looking for a picture of the of the ‘A’ pillar post window weather strip showing the weather strip and inside trim molding (the molding on the inside of the pillar post) and another detail picture of where the pillar post molding meets the door seal molding.  I am redoing this and need an example – my car was repaired long before I purchased it and they kind of did a ‘custom’ job on this area.  I want it to be right this time.

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks,
