I was finally able to get back into enjoyment of having a project vehicle.  Originally I was looking into something from the early 50's, but came across a very good deal and thus started a passion for the 67-72 truck era. 

 

1970 Chevrolet C10 Short Step Side

1969 Chevrolet C10 Short Fleet Side

The truck that started the craze for me.  I purchased the truck in July of 2002 from a close friend in my church. This was his dad's farm truck.  The truck had been kept up really well, since before he started farming the owner was a mechanic.  Rust was minor, mostly in the bed.

I grew to love the short fleet version of the trucks and found this one through a friend I met through a truck board community.  Rust and neglect prompted me to take what was good from the 69 and turn my Old Farm Truck 70 into a Short Fleet.  Thus the web story begins
