  • Not a Festiva but a fine piece of automotive eye candy

    They're my girlfriends stepdad's GMC. I don't know what year(yet) but he's had it since he was 16(a long time). So far he just has the interior and exterior done. He's saving for a 383 with a blower on it. I think he'll give up and just get a 350 with cams, a carb, and some different headers.
    I think he needs seatbelts first. It's a dark purple color that has a little metallic flake in it.




    Edit: It's a '68.


    Take it back to the back porch, join the 3 string revolution.

        I've had a few of those C10's 67-72

        My best one was a 72 Cheyenne lowered and had a 350/T350.. I found out the hard way that when lowering the lwb models you have to remove the carrier bearing and dual drive shafts and cut a couple of half circles where the carrier bearing was and install a single driveshaft from a 70-74 Caddy.. sweet.. never threw a U joint again..
