    In my own imaginary world, where. Respect for wome
    Nice! I'm startin a 72 C-10 in the garage. Front clip removed, engine's been pulled and already broken down, ready to go to the machine shop. Maybe when I get some time off from work round the holidays I'll actually get the cab floor stripped, and smooth/paint the hood & bed.
