C50 Project
This may not be the right forum for this, but I did not find a 1968 thread....
I just purchased a 1968 C50. It was originally a Fire truck which someone made a diamond steel bed for. I want to get creative with it but not sure what resources I can get a hold of to get parts etc. Does anyone know much about these vehicles? I want to put Air Ride seats in it. Would like to modernize the dash. Auto locks and windows, etc... Thanks for any advice or help. [IMG][/IMG] Last edited by CNJ Ranch; 11-16-2015 at 04:01 PM. Reason: Add picture... |

Re: C50 Project
Funny, but this actually happens quite a bit. Someone posts his first post, creates an interest, then disappears, never to be heard from again. Oh well.

Re: C50 Project
Yeah and it is a bummer too, I wanted to ask about those high mounted spot lights, and the wheels/tires on that rig.
