The Joy of Project Cars

by

Back in November of last year I introduced my latest project vehicle, a 1963 Chevrolet C10.

As is so often the case with project cars, a lot has happened since my last article but not much has changed.

Our Roadkill Adventure

Roadkill is a YouTube by two guys who take sketchy, clapped out vehicles, do crazy modifications to them and then take ridiculous road trips to God knows where. My son and I did our own Roadkill episode when we rebuilt the top end of a 1973 Chevy C10 and drove it to Big Sandy, Montana.

The truck originally had a 230 CID inline 6 engine connected to a column shifted, 3 speed transmission. At some point the 230 was replaced with a 1976 250 CID 6 cylinder. The truck ran well enough to drive it the 125 miles home but there was plenty of work to be done.
