Re: 68 c10 2wd in Sacramento, CA

Last Friday, I pulled my bed in the shop... again using my trusty trailer... and a 2 yard loader we have at work


Monday, I pulled off the smashed up drivers side bed panel. And found a good place to store it.


I replaced it with the one I pulled from the 67 parts truck.


I started marking out the cut lines for the bed. I used the suggestions from Rockrln's shortbed conversion build which was 8 3/4" back from the front stake hole, and 8 3/4" forward from the rear stake hole. The front section to be cut out is 12" and the rear section is 8"

Welding is a lot like sex, you don't have to be great with the rod as long as you thoroughly prep the surface and your good at grinding
