Yep, sure is. From what I've been told by the PO, it was a vending machine delivery truck up until the late 70's when it was parked. It was worked pretty hard up til then. I'm nursing her back slowly.

it started with a motor swap because the one that came out was dog sh*t slow haha, wouldnt spin the tires on gravel, well to say the least it has escalated from there... and now the cab and frame are 10 miles apart and ive got truck parts scattered across the garage floor

Here's my '69 C20. Similar to FirstOwner69's truck in that it also has H2 wheels. Nice truck Jim.

Prematuregrey · 10-17-2013, 09:10 PM

Very nice looking truck Roto. I may have to look into a set of those H2 wheels someday. They really do update the look without trashing the classic lines.

While an older shot, here's my '70 long stepper that I've had a ball with over the last 2-1/2 yrs. Currently working on getting the hubcaps sorted out w/ correct black accents...

Really appreciate that, factorystock...Really do. It's real labor of love stuff for me. I'm brand spanking new to this Board, but have already run across lots of posts, where folks seem to really dislike long steppers. I don't get it, but I suppose that's OK, because of comments like yours and the fact I love my "ugly, awkward" rig and I can't seem to drive for 5 min. around town without a honk, thumbs-up and/or fist pump out of the window from someone. I suppose some of us find real beauty in "ugly".

I just bought this 67 c20 so things will be changing on it.
