looking good, this mild weather is letting a lot of work get done, heater controls are nice wish mine had that set up, kinda fancy.

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

thanks flips, i didn't know there was a difference in a standard heater and the deluxe, but there is! if you want to get the setup make sure to get the heater box from under the hood with all cables!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

Sorry the fan won't do you any good,,, at least you have a heater, when I got mine wasn't even connected, wouldn't have worked if it would have been connected.. LLOL Just a shell laying on the floor Ha Ha I've install vintage air but haven't completed the connection or the A/C as yet.. I'm thinking of reworking the lines before charging it up.. at the cost of 134A these days no need to waste $.

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

57 truckguy; ya, vintage air would be nice but out of my price range, right now!! Lol, maybe one day!!

i have yet to go talk to the guy that has two big back window long bed trucks, i have been told by the wife to want til income taxes come in! she thinks a lil like me and said take $600 with you and start with $400 for both! i'm hoping they both have ac and all the deluxe acc., that would be a score of a life time for me! i told the wife i would still like to go check them out to see what year they are and what they got! i know they are 64-66, she said (No, money talks) lol!! anyways i'll have some pictures of my bumper in the next day or two, going to go work on it the next two days if i can! depends on (weather and or wife) sometimes i dont know whats worse, lol!! j/k!!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

love the old mopars, i have many memories of running around with my older brother in his, he always had a roadrunner or satelite when i was young. and your doing a great job with your bumpers. keep up the good work.

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

thanks flip, i have been around muscle cars and trucks my whole life! i love them all, i cant say i hate any of them but i do have ones i favor more!! i like just about all of them from the 1930's-1970's, when a car was a car not a tin can, lol!! things back they were made better you know! my uncle had a 67 gto that would do a wheelie no problem, could be going down the road 40-50mph. and still lite the tires up and the fun part was it looked like it was all stock til you opened the hood !! fun memories, lol!! now he has a 62-63 nova that he's putting a 396 in it, it's still in pieces! he just bought it and is still getting parts from the guy as he cleans out his garage and finds it all! i'll get pictures of it this weekend if i can remember to go by there!

i haven't really done anything to my truck yet, lol! i did get some measurements my wheelwells are 11.5" stock and will be going to 15.5", and i did get my ashtray panel so i can clean and paint it to match the heater, glove box, gauge cluster,and i'll be painting the door panels too! i having a problem with what color sunvisors and armrest to get! my cab will be mostly silver with a small amount of blue, i was thinking of the gray and black armrest from classicparts.com, and to match them i would have to get the dark gray sunvisors! but i would like some input from you guys, as to what you think! i was also thinking of trying to dye the gray sunvisors blue but i dont know!! any help would be great

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

well i took my roll pan and bumper to where my trucks at, anyways i took some pictures! i got to raise the license box some and then cut four holes for the brackets! and then i can put them both together, i think it will look good!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

The roll pan looks smooth!
Your "boltless" bumper looks fantastic!
Really clean look to it like that.

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

Nice job on the bumper. :metal: That was my original plan, until I decided to run chrome.

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

thanks guys, i'm not done with them yet! i just needed to see what it will start to look like, if you know what i mean!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

mocking stuff up every once in a while helps keep me motivated, and sometimes focused.
My problem is I tinker with stuff then set it aside when I decide I dont have everything I want or need to finish it.
That is why my build thread is such a mess LOL

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

bumper looks good, i think i have a.d.d or something like that, because i get started on one thing and end up on something non related completely:lol:

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

Yea well I think we all have a touch of that... LOL get frosted on one project and go to something we thing we can finish and end up spending more time on that then the orginal thing we were working... LOL the other day I was in the garage and must have started 10 or 15 things durning the day and didn't seem to get anything done... I hate days like that. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr:sumo::sumo::sumo:

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

you got the A.D.D first part right, but thats short for addiction, lol!! i do the same thing, i jump around to much and then i think one day i will have a bunch of lil project and i'll be done!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

i had 5 projects going this last weekend and the only thing i really got done saturday was take pictures, lol! now i have to find the cable that plugs into the computer so i can upload the pictures of the heater box i got painted! i got the part i was looking for from 'Mcmurphy' and got it all painted and put together!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

Ahhh congrats man!! Just sorry it took so long to get to ya!
Cannot wait to see the pics.

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
 

well mcmurphy sent me the part i need to fix my heater! it needed to be cut a lil bigger for the deluxe heater core, and the flat metal piece switched for the metal flap, then it got two new rivets! i got the part that bolts to the firewall cleaned and painted, i also took brass wire wheels to my heater core to clean it up too! anyways let me know what you think!! again i'm not done with it i got to get the gasket kit and get the motor/fan and some wire mesh for it still!
