Right now the plan is to build my own flatbed, keep it super simple and more period correct, so it won't be too heavy.

But I still want to do airbags, I'm just not getting my sights set on a street scraper.
Just like a pre-73 C10, the C20's can have leafs or truck arms out back. Which set-up do you have?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
