Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Here are some pictures of the truck I have been trying to put together for the past 2 years. It started all in peices from when I bought the truck. This is what it looked like when I first got it.Attachment 391870

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Then I sandblasted the frame.Attachment 391871 primer and painted it.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

To make a long story short. It now has a mustang II front suspension from fatmans with the stainless upper and lower control arms. Rear suspension is the air ride trailing arm setup. I have put a 350/290hp and a 700r. All stainless exhaust. Here are some pictures of it. Attachment 391872

nice work brother

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

More picture of the cab. The only bad spot on it was the driverside cab corner. My plans are to smooth the firewall and try to get it ready for paint this winter.

I wish I had room for a herd of old trucks too. ;) Does that fatman front end have provisions for a sway bar?

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

nice looking chassis where did you get the radiator setup? also what are you painting frame with? thats a nice looking junkyard in the background there if thats what it is.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.

Now you are just rubbing it in :).

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

I only wish I had all those trucks. They belong to a guy in east knoxville TN. I just bought the cab from him. The fatman front suspension has the provisions for a sway bar I have one on it.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Thank you, red69ss. The radiator setup came from ebay. The paint on the frame is just dupli-color rattle can. The trucks in the backgroud are in east knoxville, TN. at a place called the truck farm. He has about 60 trucks and all kinds of parts.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

You are going to have one nice truck there when you are done. The trucks in the background look like TNCHEV up in Kodak.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Thanks woodridge, The trucks are in Kodak you are right on that. TNCHEV

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Sweet looking set-up kepp up the great work.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Awesome Truck....And Great work.Few questions....What headers are you running....And where was the fuel tank purchased...

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Thanks bad6772, the headers are sanderson bought from early classic and the fuel cell is a 16 gallon bought from summit racing.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Thanks....Was wondering....Do you have part #s on both....

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

The part#'s for the fuel cell SUM-290104 measurements 25x17x9. mounts for the fuel cell part# SUM-290154. The headers part# 11-6572HDRS.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Nice work. The chassis looks pretty low. Are the coilovers adjusted all the way down or did you opt for the drop spindles?

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Very Nice!

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Thanks 68GMCCustom, The coilovers are set to ride height with the bottom control arms level. Yes I do have the drop spindles on it.

Thanks Frizzle Fry.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

so what type of ground clearance will you have? I ask because I have been looking at the Fatman IFS setup and the ART rear air setup for my project too. I have a bare frame in the garage from under my '68 (riding on a '72 chassis now) that I'll be starting on soon. I was thinking 17's up front and 18's in back for a raked stance.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

68GMCCustom, The frame sits about 4 1/2" off the ground. this measurement is right behind the front tire. The wheels and tires on the chassis right now are just camaro wheels and tires size 245/50-16. When I get closer to getting this truck done I would like to get some 18's with a decent tire on them. So that should raise it up a little.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

I know all too well how a short wheel/tire combo can make a difference. My '72 chassis had a 25.5"-26" tall tire. I'm running one that's a little over 28" now.

I'll be following you build! I plan on starting my own build thread once I get my frame cleaned up. It really started months ago when I sold the complete body off my '72 chassis and then put my '68's body on it...freeing up the '68 chassis to be stripped down and then built up while I'm still driving the truck. :lol:

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

I've not got much done lately, but here are some pictures of the cab that I have been working on a little.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Coming along nicely, keep it up.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Thanks guy's this will be a slow build if you can not already tell. I will try to keep everyone posted on what's being done and post as many pictures as I can.

Re: Project C-10 Stepper. In TN.
 

Done a little bit of work not much. I cleaned the bottom of the cab and put the cab on the frame. Attachment 398451
