Yeah it came out of a '90 model I believe. Found a conversion shop up in Dallas that had seats, steering wheels and bunch of take out stuff from conversions they did. All new stuff and pretty cheap, then..

Started assessing the damages this weekend. Ignition switch has finally worn out, so that's on order. But a screw driver will work for the time being. Pulled the stereo out and a bunch of hacked up wiring. Not trying to make anything perfect yet, just trying to make sure it doesn't burn...

I'm gonna try to keep this thread going since I have the truck and have started working on it. :tmc: The truck: 1971 Chevrolet Custom Deluxe C-10, small block 350 with Turbo 350 and 3:42's (IIRC). I bought this truck in the summer of '84, worked my ass off to save money for it. Bought it from...

#truth! I'm not debating that quality has decreased over the years, I agree with you on that. Just stating that our environment is easier on these newer vehicles and their " quality" parts. Posted from my iPad via Tapatalk HD.

Lol, my '06 is in better shape than your POS and has twice as many miles. You better trade it in. Posted from my iPad via Tapatalk HD.

If I get back into the game I may give them another shot at my business then. Posted from my iPad via Tapatalk HD.

Trucks aren't built as good as they used to be in some ways. Materials have gotten thinner and of a lesser quality all to save weight so they can pack more creature features in front of use. The downfall is shit rots away faster especially in your environment with the stuff they put on the roads...

MSD's reliability was taking a shit in the 90's so I stopped running them. Switched back to HEI's, but that's been 20 years ago... What's the reliability of the new digital units?

Shit that's not a bad price. Enjoy the lake this weekend.

Welcome and I would go with the Blueprint engine.

I've researched this extensively and found that the easiest way is to go to the dealership and pick up a newer model truck. :D

I honestly didn't look for cheaper. Rock Auto had what I wanted and I ordered it. :lol:

I wouldn't hesitate buying another one for one second, and this is coming from a Chevy guy. I have 46K miles on mine, DEF deleted with 4 inch exhaust all the way, H&S Minni Maxx tuner set on 120 hp and an S&B CAI. Truck get's 20+ mpg on the highway and around 17mpg pulling my 6x10 enclosed...

I placed an order through Rock Auto Monday night. Ordered a blend door actuator for a Ford Flex and an AC Delco window regulator for a Chevy Silverado. Items shipped from separate locations and I clicked on the cheapest shipping methods for both. One item went USPS priority and the other went...

Alright, I gotta know if you got any air jumping this truck like when Carl stopped by years ago. Lol Posted from my iPad via Tapatalk HD.

I gave up. Lol Posted from my iPad via Tapatalk HD.

I only caught the end of the Nationwide race yesterday but it was good to see the 3 take the checkers. Posted from my iPad via Tapatalk HD.

I have a little turbocharged V8. Does good in or out of boost, does the best MPG's with about 10 psi of boost.

Big tires aren't my area of expertise, I wouldn't trust anything I told you. :)

I'm jealous. :thumbs:

Yeah it takes the guess work out of the deal. Everything you need in one box, tear the shit down and get busy with no stopping looking for some obscure widget that didn't come with what you ordered.

Haven't blown apart yet.

Yeah what he said. ^^^:lol:

I like the Gray Mills Super Agitene does a good job and isn't too hard on your hands. Posted from my iPad via Tapatalk HD.
