The dog pic is classic. He looks disappointed that you took his truck apart.:lol:

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Yea he loved to go for rides in his truck!! lol

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

looks good keep it coming

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Thank you sir im doing my best!

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Nice truck to start out with! If it's orange and has clearance lights, I like it! I love what you did with the Chevrolet logo on the firewall, that's a really cool custom touch. I'll be watching this one. Keep up the good work!

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Thanks the orange cab was a donor, mine was in too bad of shape i decided to find a better one, going back with the tan color but the clearance lights will stay lol

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Either way it will look good. I can't say I've ever seen a lowered orange rig with clearance lights. That's what got me curious.

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

I like the attention to detail your doing! Looks great!!!!!!!

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Gonna stay stock height, im not too big on the lowered 3/4 tons lol no offense anyone!

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Nice work so far!!!

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Thanks fakerwade, but my build isnt near as cool as yours, as for the cherokee it belonged to a friend of mine who has since sold it.... There wasnt much cherokee left when we finished building it lol!

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Thanks, it should look pretty close to the first picture just with no dents and new paint!

Thank you

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

this is what i did for my receiver hitch, i removed the rear crossmember for the frame and the spare tire bracket. After i removed the original mounts for the hitch i welded it to the frame and added some extra steel plating to strengthen it all up. This was all done to hide the hitch behind the license plate in the roll pan.

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

been doing body work lately... man i hate sanding this stuff, as i have heard several time on this site thats why its body work not body fun.

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Everything cleaned up and 2 coats of epoxy sprayed.

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

Nice work! Great attention to details. That is going to be a really nice truck when you are done.

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
 

I love that firewall! I have seen some interesting placement of that CHEVROLET stamp, good work.

Re: My 85 c20 build attempt.
