Greetings all. New to the forums from Augusta, GA. I'm a third generation owner of a 1979 C10 Bonanza, as my uncle bought it new off the lot, my dad took over ownership around 89-90, and now it's mine. The body is completely untouched, minus random paint spots where the old man was trying to control some of the rust. For most of it's life it held up a bed cover, and came with the white wagon wheels as a dealer option. We've upgraded the 305 to a 350 out of an '87 and put in a higher torque cam and a Weiand aluminum intake. The tranny is a TH350 out of the '78 Chevy van I drove in high school. It's got it's fair share of rust, but piece by piece I'm fixin' it up starting with the mechanicals. The motor has 5k miles since it was built, while the tranny has about 25k since rebuild.
