The cab will go into primer one more time, get sanded with 400 (wet) and then we will start putting on color. It will be getting seam-sealed this afternoon.

Re: '68 c10 build
Looking good so far. Hoping to gain some motivation from all this. Keep rolling along.

Re: '68 c10 build
Thanks, guys. By chance, anyone in NM have a good bed (short) they are looking to sell?

Re: '68 c10 build
Today we finished cleaning and smoothing off the underside of the cab. It will be getting sprayed with undercoating this afternoon.
I also picked a color and bought paint today. I was shocked at the price! Spent over a grand in material and will probably end up needing more clear. |
Re: '68 c10 build
What color did you end up with?

Thoughts? Oh, and the price of paint is nuts! $578 a gallon for the blue. A non-metallic blue....... |
Re: '68 c10 build
I like the color (almost, but not quite, Taos Blue), but $578 a gallon is crazy!

Re: '68 c10 build
Awesome color choice! My new cab is original Light Blue so I'm going to try to match it the best I can with the rest of the sheet panels. What are you planning on doing in the interior? I'm undecided on doing either a black or an all blue interior.

We got the underside of the cab coated yesterday and are waiting for it to dry. Today, I drilled holes in the dash for the ac vents. We are planning to run just the outside vents for a cleaner look. Drilling these holes stressed me out for some reason.

Looks nice. I'm still leaning against below the trim though. |

Here are some pics of the inside of the cab. Super exciting to start seeing color. We finished wet sanding the roof, door jambs, and A and B pillars this morning. The drip rail will get seam-sealed this afternoon and we will spray the white on Monday.

I got the tank installed today, as well as the pump and regulator/filter. For the pump, I went with a Walbro (GL392) kit from Speedway. I have this pump on my personal c10 and have been very pleased.
