thanks mike, he told me Friday if I want them to look any better he would redo them and make them were you can't see where he started an stopped! he stopped three time per flange! I told him they look good to me and no one is going to crawl under the truck to complain about the welds, so I told him I'm not worried about them!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
WOW!! It's been a while since I posted anything on here about the truck! but I've been working a lot out of town, two weeks outside of dodge city, Kansas an up to Colby, Kansas, two weeks in Malvern, Ark. an Hot Springs! then spend another two and a half weeks in Cushing, OK. and Stroud, Ok. all for work! I wish I could say I spend all that time on vacation but it wasn't! I was able to come home every two weeks or so for the weekend before heading out again! the wife didn't like me been gone that much but I got to pay the bills, lol!!

so some pics of the wheels that have came in, got to narrow the rear 3.75-4 inches each side and make some new lowering blocks cause the e-brake cable would be at almost the u-bolt for the rearend! still waiting on the gauges to come in, those babies are just about the most expensive part I have bought for the truck as of now! tires will be the next, then paint, lol!! anyways enough talk on to the pics

thanks don I will be there for sure! i'll even showing up early, cause I know what clem has planned for the ones that do, lol!!!



so today was hot even in the shade, so all I did today was rebuild the 4 hinges, paint them with rust encapsulator from eastwood, cut my doors for the altman easy latches and install them for now just to see how they fit and look! I'll hang my doors later, the hinges need to dry first, so here is some pics

What's your assessment of those latches? Been thinking about them but don't know about NOT being able to lock door from inside? Would like a bit more security when wife is out and about in truck. Any workarounds you have planned?
