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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
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.
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.
