azratrods intro

I finally registered here. ive been lurking for a long time. ive been building 61-66 ford f100s for the past few years. I just sold my last one and decided to tackle a chevy next. so this month I was looking for something different and came across a 72 c50. I just picked it up today and it will be in the shop tomorrow. during the process of buying it I talked to my buddy dino (dino63) and he told me all about his c50 that he built. now that his is sold and gone I feel like its open season to build another one in the valley. hes going to be helping out along the way and so are some of the other Arizona guys.

the f100 I just finished:


the 1972 c50 im starting:

Welcome to the site.

Looks like a nice solid C-50.

We all love that AZ sheetmetal.

If your F-150 is any indication, that C-50's going to be one cool truck!

Re: azratrods intro

Here are a few pictures from a few months ago that I forgot to post. I found a nice long bed and we mocked it up. And I scored a 2005 Kodiak parts truck for FREE! We are going to strip it and put the rear end and front end under the C50.

Re: azratrods intro

Hope you get along with your neighbors. some of mine would sic the town on me quick if I brought that home. They say I can't have a commercial vehicle parked in a residential area. They say my 72 GMC 3500 is a commercial vehicle ever though its tagged historic. I really think I need to get one of these bigger trucks now anyway. Gonna watch this one.

Someone posted a video the other day on a different board I was on. The NY Police got a call for someone starting to wash their car in their driveway and they went to the house with paperwork to show them that it was against the rules and advise them not to. The guy said he was on his own property, but the cop told him that he "was in public view". It was in some kind of village neighborhood though.

...glad I live miles and miles away from there!!
