Maybe... just maybe... It's a hard sell over my 3 time power toured 65 Mustang. I'm only thinking about it because the route is so short for me from start to finish.1 Photo1967 Chevrolet C10 SWB - 350/700R/3.73

This is one of our options. If it weren't for our house remodel, I'd call it plan A. Needs the LS swap completed, AC fixed/installed, interior spruced up, lowered front and back as well as new tires. Other than that, we're ready to go!

The Mustang has one hell of a balanced suspension setup (I spent a lot of money on suspension) and great tires. I was doing 70 with confidence in that downpour blowing past Chicago in 2015. If I was in the truck I would have been going 45 with the flashers on! Gotta keep up with Dave!Last edited by Jesse James 80; January 9, 2018, 03:34 PM.1967 Chevrolet C10 SWB - 350/700R/3.73

The only LS power plants it will see will be in the bed!

If Earl goes this year, I guess we could consider him to be the C-10s "daddy"...........
