1970 Chevy C10 – Edward E.

I picked up this truck from a family friend from Las Vegas in 1989, He got it at a GSA auction and it was a supervisors truck. It had a 250 I6 with three on the tree and 135,000 miles on it.

I quickly put aluminum wheels and a 350 in it for my Senior Year in High School. And drove it every day.

I put around 100,000 miles on it until around 2016 when it was starting to show age and wear. The three on the tree was changed to a turbo 350, power steering added . And a quick paint job through the years.

In 2016 I took it all apart and started from the frame up, added power disc brakes, 2/4 drop spindles and springs. New 350 crate engine and now a 700r 4.

All the body panels except the tailgate is original steel,
Original grille cleaned up, original bumpers chromed.
Custom dash and glove box, And 8 years of on and off work on each piece, and finally got to drive it again in 2025, and hopefully a lot more miles and memories.
