My Daughter is happy with it plus it matches the interior pretty good!

One of the greatest builds on this forum!! I have this biscuit booked marked!

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

this build is amazing. wow!!! This really makes me want to get out in the garage!!

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

I took a break from the truck and posting for quite awhile! I just wasn't happy with the build and the direction it was going. I completely tore the truck down and pretty much started over. Here are the last few pics from before I took a break a few months back. Kind of a shame since it was running and almost ready to drive other than the box/back half needing to be finished.

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

More teardown! My kids took over the bench and used the truck as a hangout for a while until I figured id better get back on track with it! Stripped it and took out the frame to maybe use on another project?

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

Here's where the direction changed for me! I picked myself up a set of powder coated transits with new rubber for another project and decided I wanted a big wheel for the C10. In order to put a 22" wheel and slam it the way I really wanted to do in the first place required more suspension work than I had done. So after doing quite abit of research I decided on Choppin blocks complete front crossmember kit and rear back-half kit.

Picking up the Choppin block stuff!

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

Now to the good stuff! Unpacking and checking it out! Choppin blocks quality is pretty awesome and I'm very impressed. I ordered pretty much everything they offered (at the time) heres a few pics.

Battery boxes, Trans crossmember, E-level sensor clamps.

Nice direction your taking with it. Can’t wait to see the outcome!

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

Do you have any interest in re-homing the upper and lower modified stock control arms?

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

Nice collection of parts

So I picked up a parts truck (72 3/4 ton 292 4 spd) awhile back and figured since I needed a set of frame rails it would be a good donor. Front rails were really nice and straight but the rear section under the box were shot from years of hauling some type of fertilizer/chemical tank? Kind of a shame to dismantle a running driving truck but it gave up some good parts and was worth the teardown.

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

Got the frame rails back to the garage and started fitting up and trimming the rear section to fit. Drilled quite a few holes and got it all bolted in and mocked up.

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

Once the rear was in place I started on fitting the front crossmember. Bolt holes lined up well and squared up the frame.

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

Fit the rear air tank and cleaned everything up so i could get a good look!:metal:

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

You have some awesome skills! Where are you in ND? If you are close, it would be cool to come check your build out in person.

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

Thanks! Builds actually going on up in Manitoba Canada.

Who's doing the work on it?

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
 

Love this thread. Just now was able to read it all. You do good work!

No shops just me.

Thanks!

I decided to Mock up the engine and trans to see where everything would sit now that its together with the new cross members. I was really happy with how everything lined up and had decent clearance. The headers even fit perfect on the drivers side but did need a little tweaking on the pass side.
