Baby Steps... its coming along slowly. Ive decide that when i pull the box I'm going to install bigger notches and redo the suspension, it just sits too high in the back. Motor, brakes, steering, ignition all ready to go. I finished up the hood, cut and buffed and installed. I matched the nickle color on the wheels and am working on grill and front bumper now. All trim will be painted to match the wheels.

Re: Winter 19/20 66 C10 build
Any pics of the hood bottom side? Curious on how you terminated the vents.

So, I did redo the whole back half, it just sat too high for me. New notches, bag positions and mounts, shock mounts, panhard, exhaust etc. I'm so glad I did! Yes, I should have done it the first time but this is my first time with airbags so you live you learn.

Often times people's customizations are not to my liking. I think the original design of these trucks is right on. But man do I like your hood!

As far as peoples style goes? I'm with you but how boring would life be if our trucks were all done the same. |

Update; The box is painted and ready for cut and buff. I had originally planned to widen a set of original wheel tubs but wasn't looking forward to the hours of work and wanted to keep some momentum. These tubs are for the Square body truck, the same as the 73 - 79 with out the flange. i had always planned on welding everything in the box rather than bolting it together so these made sense (and were cheaper)
Working on the bed wood. It'll be satin black with the strips matching the trim and wheels. |
Re: Winter 19/20 66 C10 build
Mine is similar but will be bolted in. I like being able to un-bolt stuff if necessary.

bed wood is in and looks as i had hoped.

Re: Winter 19/20 66 C10 build
I really like the wheel tubs. they look like they were made for the truck. do you think they could be modified with flanges to keep the bolt down look? I'm a big fan of your truck and the great work you've done.

I was @ a standstill on mine because I really needed a center board vs. a strip @ center. Your looks to have a board @ center which is what I needed. That is a good preview of how mine will be though so Thanks! Although mine def won't be as pretty :lol: |
