86' C10 bodied on 26s

[c10bodied26s]

Well my names kevin started my build a lil bit of a year ago...some may know me from c10forum as Bxdoza...this is my first truck I ever built from ground up an pretty much did everything myself an made everything. My brother helped for a little while on the frame then faded off lol an my dad helps out when he can...I had some good friends that helped along the way an made this possible bc I was working on this build for a while with limited tools an help....so hope you all like..... im going to put a few of the most recent pics I have ...but due to spyrats ill only show what I want seen but I will catch everyone up to par.....
