Re: lowdowns 72 c-10 swb

didn't even know that. Still pretty new to these trucks. I have been too involved with the Ranger to read up on these. I'll get to it though.

Re: lowdowns 72 c-10 swb

i have no idea, but i would assume he laid in a flat piece of metal where the "indention" above the "Chevrolet" lettering is. I can't tell if he shaved the handle as well. If so, they make a kit to do so.


See the indention?


Notice that isn't on his

Re: lowdowns 72 c-10 swb

Love it. Why not just pick up a crappy 67-68 hood, save up for a steel cowl hood from Goodmark or Southern Ky Classics or somewhere, and then throw the crappy hood in the trash?

Just a suggestion though, its what i will be doing.
