Dude!
RUFKM?
That is Toooooooo Cool!
It's gonna be a real hard act to keep that quality level on the rest of the build, But I am gaining a great confidence level!
This will probably end up making mine look somewhat shade-tree!!
This is gonna be a great build to watch, and progress!!!
Great work/foresight!

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

Drop dead gorgeous work on the frame!!!!!!

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

Thanks man.....I have confidence in the guys doing the work!!

Thanks bro...more progress coming soon!!

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

Things are really starting to pick up....got all the holes in the firewall welded up, body worked and in first prime, Porterbuilt hinges installed, got the chassis put back together and the engine and tranny installed as well as the rear end. I also had Joel from full blown paint stop while we have the body off to lay down some pin striping and do some detail work on the intake. Enjoy!!!!

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

It's just a stock upper radiatior hold down that he found at the local pull a part, he cut some out of the middle and then made that aluminum piece to rivet over the top of it.

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

Chris...Just went through your whole thread. Absolutely great job. Looks very nice. Or SICK as most would say. Keep up the great work and look forward to watching for the rest of the build. I subscribed to your build. I have many pictures of my 86 Silverado but just tore it down and at Chads for blasting. Ordered all PB components. I will soon start a build tread myself. Meanwhile keep the pictures and progress coming! Tony Knight

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop

Sorry for the lack of updates fellas, but for those of you that don't have Facebook and IG, the truck made it to SEMA!!! The truck is completed and I'll be getting you guys up to speed soon!!! Been working all of the Overtime I can to catch up from SEMA!!!

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

Hey Chris,

I was wondering if you might know of anyone "local" to me or you that does media (soda) blasting? I need to get some sheet metal clean on a 48 model truck, and it has heavy undercoating on the backside of the fenders. Any info would be appreciated. I can't wait to see some updated pics of your truck too!
I'm a 67-72 guy....... but builds like this one are driving me to want a 60-66 SWB BBW.

Thanks, Wade

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

Look up Extreme Liners & Customs in Gonzales, LA...he has a guy that does it but uses a special type of media that doesn't cause any damage to the panels. He was super cheap too.

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

Thanks, I'll do that. I appreciate the info

Wade

[QUOTE=severedchris;5727275]

This is definitely a budget build I wanna stay with a period correct look, All deluxe trim and emblems, HRF satin charcoal w/all red interior, may go with some steelies, or nostalgic set of 20s such as Coys or AR Torque Thrusts...this will definitely be a cruiser.

What happened to your budget build?? lol There is nothing budget about what I am seeing here man. !!!

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

Well???
Where-the-F are all of the updates????

Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop
 

Saw a small glimmer of your truck in the new Accuair sema 2014 video.
