I always loved getting parts...Jim

Re: My first c-10
 

Well, I got the cab mounted, the fire wall cleaned but I still need to take a pic of it done.. and the cab floor cleaned too. I was happy that i didn't have to cut the cab for the trailing arm crossmember upper tube for the .875 bodydrop I built into the chassis.

Nice repair....Jim

Re: My first c-10
 

That frame!!!!! WOW WOW WOW. I am so jealous!!! I would love to see this frame powder coated and with a twin turbo motor, all the mechanical upgrades and a fully bare sheet metal or rusted exterior. With such a great chassis you could really pull off an extreme contrast on the exterior and it would work.

Re: My first c-10
 

Killer work man.

Re: My first c-10
 

Just found this Amazing Build, watchin now!!!

Re: My first c-10
 

frame is unreal, great job man!!

Re: My first c-10
 

Rust spot in cowl/firewall area. To small to cut out so I used aluminum.

Re: My first c-10
 

Lookign good. What color are you going with on the dash and the interior?

Re: My first c-10
 

Sir, if you could shoot me a photo of your X anvils with a ruler for scale I would sure appreciate it!
I would like to see if a local industrial welding shop could make me a pair of those.

Re: My first c-10
 

Thinking stock gold color for the dash and glossy white a-pillars, roof, and back cab .
