Not a lot going other than making filler dust. I did get my wheels and tires mounted. I'm thinking of redoing my rear suspension to get more drop.. looks to me like it needs to go down another 4" or so. What's everyone think? front lays on the cross member but it looks like way to much rake for me.

The rims looks nice. I agree more drop is better than less drop...

There used to be a place called "more drop axle". My GMC had one dropped by them. :)

I see guys using 3" blocks. is this common or acceptable? my rear is laying in notch now so i think there might be another 1" in bags. That being said, if i changed my notch and went from 1" to 3" blocks i might net a total of 3" without changing bag set up.

Xmas break has come and gone. 12 days off and i spent 10 of them in the garage.. got tons done and have established a new goals list for the truck as all were exceeded in 2019! Color is exactly what i wanted! I'm still out to pasture on the interior and trim color but it will come to me. Finished up the doors yesterday and will hang them this weekend. Steering, seats and console next.

Re: Winter 19/20 66 C10 build
I love the color and the truck as a whole. Great work and thanks for the motivation to get to work on mine!

Built a floor base to mount the seats and console. Seats are from a square body blazer and are the best seats for any classic upgrade as far as im concerned. The console is 67-72 and also is a good match for the styliyng . Ill have the seats recovered to match the interior color and theyll be good to go!
I also hung the doors to keep me inspired. Some odds and ends to finish up and then ill be pushing it aside to finish off my 57. |

Re: Winter 19/20 66 C10 build
I like those seats too. I don't recall seeing any Blazer or Suburban seats with the low backs like that. I will have to keep my eye out.

I love the build. I have a "66 i will start building in the next couple weeks. Love the small back window! I just like the look, plus i want to install a roll cage that extends to the bed through the cab.

I saw a hood like this on someone's build on line and it was rendered by the same guy who did my renderings. Anyway, I was kinda bored and at a stand still on my build while I finished up my 57. My hood had a LOT of dents but no rust so I figured I would give it a shot and the worst case scenario I buy a new hood. I love it! and its coming together nice.

Re: Winter 19/20 66 C10 build
I like it! Seen several done this way & have also stashed the idea in my think-tank.

Re: Winter 19/20 66 C10 build
