tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-61598071783645719022011-11-27T19:02:00.589-05:00This blog is dedicated to restoring my 1965 Chevy C-10 truck and getting my 1955 Chevy 3100 SWB stepside on the road. This blog will be updated almost daily depending on progress made. I don't hold anything back, if I make a mistake I will talk about it to warn others what I went thru. Information shared here is not confined to just this truck. I might throw in other things that are going on with me along the way. The info shared here can help others on their restorations.Alan's Classichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03257828205380677194noreply@blogger.comBlogger8125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159807178364571902.post-30805883195662246052011-06-06T23:01:00.003-04:002011-06-06T23:03:03.368-04:002011-06-06T23:03:03.368-04:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DE_KDBWjUsw/Te2U3aldG2I/AAAAAAAAE3M/ozQs4KAHNhE/s1600/DSC04057.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DE_KDBWjUsw/Te2U3aldG2I/AAAAAAAAE3M/ozQs4KAHNhE/s320/DSC04057.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5615307990151011170" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EVP6gTS2Hd8/Te2UtKZRPbI/AAAAAAAAE3E/rhGZT-HpjA4/s1600/DSC03977.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EVP6gTS2Hd8/Te2UtKZRPbI/AAAAAAAAE3E/rhGZT-HpjA4/s320/DSC03977.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5615307814006242738" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6159807178364571902-3080588319566224605?l=alansclassic.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/84hVBeBY4QiPZIr9ieypKH4c5Sg/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/84hVBeBY4QiPZIr9ieypKH4c5Sg/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/84hVBeBY4QiPZIr9ieypKH4c5Sg/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/84hVBeBY4QiPZIr9ieypKH4c5Sg/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AlansClassic/~4/02PJdKgQrlI" height="1" width="1"/>Alan's Classichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03257828205380677194noreply@blogger.com0http://alansclassic.blogspot.com/2011/06/update.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159807178364571902.post-54374190983655035952010-04-18T22:01:00.002-04:002010-04-18T22:10:35.095-04:002010-04-18T22:10:35.095-04:00I didn't have alot of room to play with due to the engine being moved forward so I had to make my own fan shroud. I also fabbed up the top and bottom caps so I could utilize the 67-72 radiator saddles and hold downs. There is about 1/2" between the fan and engine.<br /><br /><a href="http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/tt150/cooters2/1965%20C10%20Build/Radiator/DSC02354.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 640px; height: 480px;" src="http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/tt150/cooters2/1965%20C10%20Build/Radiator/DSC02354.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/tt150/cooters2/1965%20C10%20Build/Radiator/DSC02356.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 480px; height: 640px;" src="http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/tt150/cooters2/1965%20C10%20Build/Radiator/DSC02356.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6159807178364571902-5767871090733385565?l=alansclassic.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/YtVo9sfZ_Me4pLIaErbNbA1pmYI/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/YtVo9sfZ_Me4pLIaErbNbA1pmYI/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/YtVo9sfZ_Me4pLIaErbNbA1pmYI/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/YtVo9sfZ_Me4pLIaErbNbA1pmYI/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AlansClassic/~4/HTsHrV59n6c" height="1" width="1"/>Alan's Classichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03257828205380677194noreply@blogger.com0http://alansclassic.blogspot.com/2010/04/made-fan-shroud.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159807178364571902.post-72312110924539628322010-03-23T23:57:00.002-04:002010-03-23T23:59:15.398-04:002010-03-23T23:59:15.398-04:00Got the hood springs powder coated and installed.<br /><br /><a href="http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/tt150/cooters2/1965%20C10%20Build/Hood/DSC02286.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 640px; height: 480px;" src="http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/tt150/cooters2/1965%20C10%20Build/Hood/DSC02286.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6159807178364571902-7231211092453962832?l=alansclassic.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/TvPe92uU_gFBAtPNKaDH6DXb25E/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/TvPe92uU_gFBAtPNKaDH6DXb25E/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/TvPe92uU_gFBAtPNKaDH6DXb25E/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/TvPe92uU_gFBAtPNKaDH6DXb25E/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AlansClassic/~4/R812P9vYVj0" height="1" width="1"/>Alan's Classichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03257828205380677194noreply@blogger.com0http://alansclassic.blogspot.com/2010/03/hood-springs.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159807178364571902.post-50096997514073559292010-03-14T19:16:00.003-04:002010-03-14T19:25:55.485-04:002010-03-14T19:25:55.485-04:00Here are some of the steps I took to get the fuel door in.
