What a trip! I would love to know the history of this truck. It looks like it came right off the streets of SoCal with the mods it had, Tube grill, Cragar Supertricks and all. Awesome 8)

I need info about:
- carbuerator (is the swap to dedicated weber ok?),
- EGR system (can i make this system completly out?),
- window seals and front window itself (where partshop should i search for it?)
- breaks (maybe its is the same from another Isuzu / Mazda / Toyota i can search here in Europa?)
- another important information You can tell me more after my LUV pics!

And on END ... PLEASE write me infos and links to infos about parts and partsshops because with my english i have lots of trouble to find this right myself!

THX!

Don't worry about your English because it is a hell of a lot better than my Polish or Russian.

YES. with an adapter a weber does great on a LUV. im running a 32/36 DGEV

- EGR system (can i make this system completly out?),
Yes. i took mine off and it runs great! just need to find plugs for the air rail holes on the exhaust side.

- breaks (maybe its is the same from another Isuzu / Mazda / Toyota i can search here in Europa?)
yes pretty much. six lug 5.5" bolt spacing. same as toyota, nissan, chevrolet, cadillac, mitsubishi, pretty much all of them.
- another important information You can tell me more after my LUV pics!

WOW 8O

looks great :D

I am afraid to sandblast mine...the putty and rust MIGHT be the only thing holding it together :lol:

ВАУ смотрит большим Я испуган sandblast мои… замазка и ржавчина МОГЛА быть единственным удерживанием вещи оно совместно

^^^^^^ hope thats right :?

before sandblast we check this out allround and because of the very good condition of the chasis we make this decision right :)

oczywiście Twój ruski nie jest dla mnie tak zrozumiały jak mógłbym się tego spodziewać, ale cóż - uczyłem się już dość dawno temu :ebiggrin

right? 8)

with LUV we make a serious training there because of our love to classic cars -> for example four our friends we search constantly for another Chevy Pickup - first generation C10 stepside like this

Image

my friend wife like the Twilight saga and with Chevy like this rides the Bella from Twilight exactly and she want to have same pickup like the Bella from this movie :)

for another friend we ar lookinf for Porsche 356 Speedster from 1963 or 1965

Image

- she wants exactly this year of building because is really numerologic fan :)

You are making great progress on your truck.

What a small world. I sold my 63 C10 last January to a car collector from Sweden. Now my truck is over there. This is when i decided to get back into Chevy Luvs again.

I think you should be called Mr. Restoration. You are paying serious attention to detail! You are doing an AWSOME job. This makes my not being able to work all the worse. I wanna work on my truck!! :cry:
