Re: 68 chevy

and to the IF customs post yea i had allot of fun working for cary and yea we pretty much didnt care and would cut anything hahahha but one thing we always wanted was for it to look factory when it was done i learned allot form him he is still doin the shop but backed way down and really only does one ride at a time i just talked to him the other day and i think he is starting a 53 soon .....have you ever checked out bob grants web site i think its grantcustoms.com he is very impressive

Re: 68 chevy

I don't think it will fit my 65. But I might buy a 67 to 72 C-20 to pull my Toy Hauler. The 06 2500hd will be for sale to get rid of the payment.

Re: 68 chevy

the tailgate i had was pretty bent but i had a clean gmc gate so i decided instead of searching for a factory oem chevy gate i would cut and swap it it really only took a few hours the hardest part is locating all the spot welds lol
