Re: Project: UniqueOdyssey:'68C10-possibly one of the longest builds, unique stories.
Going to be a sweet truck. Jealous of the work on the cab.

Re: Project: UniqueOdyssey:'68C10-possibly one of the longest builds, unique stories.
Thanks! It will, sometimes hard to see the light at end of the tunnel. Still hell of a lot of fun building it this way. Yea the cab, what an ordeal lol. There's always more underneath the surfaces (rust, filler, putty, glue lol)
At the time, we even looked for better cab but nothing came up when we needed. I was kinda partial to it anyway, being my first car, original B pillar tags, etc. so I said screw it, let's just rebuild it and do it right.

Also depends on your climate too. Good products out there now that make these things won't corrode away like when they were built

Re: Project: UniqueOdyssey:'68C10-possibly one of the longest builds, unique stories.
Couple months ago stumbled upon some Old School billets! Ended up making a trade w/another good C10 dude. Before that, found some good tires guy was swapping out.
Perfect combo w/the stance! Old school, hot rod/muscle look. Check out those calipers peeking Should work for while until I can afford brand new set, should ride good. Eagle Alloy/American Eagle Wheels (frickin' Made in America!) 212 series 17x8 front, 17x9.5 rear. A lot of time, but got them cleaned up, painted backsides. Polishing wheels sucks doesn't it..lol but worth the results. Toyo Proxes ST II - 255/60/17 front, 275/60/17 rear
