Like a rock! Down & dirty dually.

Alrighty then! I've harassed others long enough! It's time for me to take some heat! My '72 Highlander has been done for years, and the '67 is running & driving adequately for parts chasin'. Never tackled an HD-ish type rig, so here we go!

This ain't the kind of build that starts out with concept drawings---this is the kind that gets designed by what shows up on Craigslist this week. IDK if it will ever see a paint gun. But it will be functional and reliable (remind me of that bold statement).

What we're supposed to end up with here is a '72 C30 dually pickup. What we have now is a 72 C20. It will still have a 2 in the VIN, but it'll be an honest-to-gosh C30 in every way. Except one---it'll keep the C-20 trailing arm suspension.

So the gun has fired and we're off! At this moment, I have owned the truck one week, so you won't see a barrage of photos right off. But I vow to post pics! even the insignificant ones!

9 years sitting under a tree--here you see the "dirty" of down & dirty!
