I'll be putting it on next week, a little more clean-up still has to be done. I am also using the sound proofing/insulation on the bottom side of it too.

The custom interior I am talkin about isn't like a resto but like a custom rod. I am using 88-91 bucket seats and installing a console from a 71 blazer. But if any questions come to mind, just ask!!

Did not get to do anything to the "Sancha" this Friday or today. I had a little party last night. My B-day is the 22nd but we got it outta the way this weekend! Got a little cash and spent it wisely........headlight bezels and grill trim rings so all of the trim is going to be done!!!!!

Nice progress David!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

nice job on the truck.. good luck with the bussiness.. it pays good wish i hadnt sold my business, when you get the truck done you need to make a custom trailer to pull everythign behind it..

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

Hahaha.......be patient! I pulled the hood out today and hope to start light sanding on the underside to get it ready for paint by Thursday. It'll be on this week....and yes pics will come afterwards!

Thanks Heath, ya beat me!

The pay is killin me, getting undercut constantly. I would love to have a trailer made from a bed, but the yard equipment wouldn't get near it! I need a photoshop of that!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

Looking forward to pics with the hood on!

If that's the case then market yourself as the responsible, professional company and do MORE than they ask you to do. Not a lot, just something extra. Do you mainly do commercial or residential or both?

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

slick your truck is looking awesome, soon you be able to enjoy the hard work!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

Appreciate it!! Wish the truck was ready for a cruise on my B-day!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

Pulled her out to get some sun, which didn't last long, while I was working on my hood in the shop. Notice somethin about the bumper? It's a 67 (no lights) with the bolt holes punched out for a 70-71 (with lights). There is about a four inch difference on the outermost bolt. I had to use 70-71 bumper brackets to make it work. Weird. Check out the dust too!!!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

well first i wanna know somthin did you drive it out or did you roll it out :Dand second you know exactly how to make someone jelous:lol:

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

Wow! Looks great man. How's that landscaping business coming along? I've been thinking of doing something like that. Just see too many people getting into the biz and making $$$.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

The camera, the right angles and the right truck....Perfect combo!
Now, Put that hood on!!....Sweet truck bro!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

HAPPY BELATED B-DAY BUD. happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to David. happy birthday to you, and many moooooooore!


Anyways, what kind of camera did you get? me curious I like cameras. Also the truck is jsut stunning, you are so hitting my Jealous bone with this truck. That is just one SLICK looking truck. LOL, had to use a pun. oh well, she is slowly getting there, but at least she is getting done right!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

Um.....roll....unfortunately. And yes.....I know exactly how cause I had to deal with it all these years with my friends havin awesome rides!!!!!

Thanks Bro! The work is there for sure, no matter how many crews you see, but it is tough to get many accounts when you have other people doin it on the side and undercuttin your prices by a third. Dirty Bas-turds. If you want to work from sunup to sundown for $15 to $20 a yard no matter what size it is then you'll make it.

Hahahahaha........cool. I had to try out the camera and couldn't think of a better object!!!

Thanks James!! I appreciate that very much! It's the new Samsung TL220. It has a screen on the front of the camera so you can take a pic of yourself! Wow. That's really vain isn't it? Oh well, it really captures the colors on my truck in the sun but I can't the pics on here because of the size they are. Gotta figure this out soon!!!! I appreciate the SLICK comments! hahahaha and I hope it IS done right in the end!!!!!!!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

Finally.....a hood!!!! Here are some pics!!! Give me some feedback on getting the back of the hood down.....maybe new springs???

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

From what I have read here before, loosen the rear bolts of the hood hinges. Then lift the hood and push it up as far as you can, then tighten the bolts (takes 2 people). Hope it works for you.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 

Thanks bro, but we tried it but it didn't go down enough to close the gap at the cowl. Maybe time to call the bodyman back for some quick help!
