I’m new! Have a family 1982 c-10. Trying to restore . Here looking for any guidance from the inter webs.
I vote for keeping the 6 cylinder as well. Don't get rid of it after you put a V8 in it at least. I kept my '81 Custom Deluxe stock with a 250, 3 speed transmission stock the 11 years I drove it and wasn't sorry at all.- Memaloose

Replacing Rear Door Window Regulator and Rollers
I like your idea. I am having the same problem on my 72 Olds Toronado except I can't even find the correct nylon rollers and guides. From what I've seen, a hydraulic press is the best way. Good luck!- Memaloose

New seat bottom foam vs re-building existing?
Yep. A guy up the road came by wanting to buy my truck. He said he does upholstery so I asked for a quote. $500 cash, I said do it! While the seat was out, I cleaned the floor pan, primered and painted it, new carpet and reupholstered seat, about $800 total. The upholsterer, Francisco, told me... -
New seat bottom foam vs re-building existing?
My 2 cents. I recently had my seat reupholstered and debated the same thing, seat back as well. The guy that did mine said he'd just add some new foam where it was worn. The repair was as good as new to me. You can't tell it was repaired. He charged me $550 for the works, inspection of springs... -

Nasty Noise Coming From Flexplate/Converter area
On my '79 Silverado K20 with a small block 400, the welded balance weight on the flex plate came loose and made a racket like you describe. I don't know if yours is externally balanced but it's one more thing to look at.- Memaloose

Bending Hood
I've found any lubricant works, some are messier than others but the most important thing is to LUBE IT REGULARY. You can wipe off the excess. I lube the door and hood hinges at least 3 times a year. Where I live it attracts dust but I also hose off under the hood at least a couple times a year...- Memaloose
