Re: '68 c10 build
Looks good. Way better quality than I got. Mine had two burn spots where the sanding drum stopped. I'm amusing yours had none?

Re: '68 c10 build
I haven't had a chance to inspect it real closely but I didn't see any. Sorry to hear that about yours.

Re: '68 c10 build
Brief update on the truck. Started staining the wood floor today and hit a snag. We are wanting the wood to be gray to match the center of the wheels. Got the stain on and was very happy with it. After I put the marine grade polyurethane on it the gold color in the urenthane tinted the wood back to brown. Pretty disappointed. I went ahead and did all of it but I'll sand it tomorrow and try another coat of stain and a different clear polyurethane.

Re: '68 c10 build
So we also got the mirrors installed and I'm super happy with how they look. I wanted a round mirror to mimick what is factory on a 68 but wasn't crazy about the long arm that is on the stock mirrors. Ended up ordering 67 Camaro mirrors. As a the owner of a 67 Camaro, I have to say these mirrors look better on a c10 then they do on a Camaro.
