Re: "Darla" - 1965 Chevy C30 Dually

While that was going on, I began to disassemble the parts truck. The truck was a 1986 GMC Cab and Chassis dually that this gentleman had sitting on his property. He was debating on cutting it up to make a trailer, but end up just wanting to get rid of it. The truck was absolutely solid, so overall it was a great pickup.




Couple days I had a guy interested in the front clip for the price I was asking. A few days later I had someone call me who really wanted the flatbed. This was easier than I was planning on.



My neighbor put together a home made lift on the back of his '49 1 Ton. Once I was ready to pull the motor he goes "Come on lets give it a try". Well she held with no problem - I was pretty impressed.


Breaking down the front and rear suspension. I originally was just going to use the 14 bolt FF, however after some thought I decided I wanted to swap in the rear leaf springs and hangers also.
