1980 Chevrolet C10 – Jon B.

Just days before hitting one year of owning the Chevy, we finally got it wrapped up in paint. Growing up, both dad and grandpa worked for Firestone, so I never really had to learn much about working on vehicles myself, I’d just pull into the shop and they’d take care of it. This project changed…

1984 Chevrolet C35 – Jeff M.

I purchased this truck site unseen (other than pictures) from an ad on marketplace. It looked like a good patina truck to drop and add semi wheels on. Well….. as my story goes… I can’t leave well enough alone and started tearing it apart. So much for the patina. I’m into shiny paint as well,…
