1972 Chevy C10 Highlander Longbed
Getting me build thread ready with some recent pictures. Trying to figure out how I can to do this truck. I was planning on painting satin black with yellow and lime green pin stripes. After finding out it is a highlander I don't know if I want to go in the direction of a stock kind of look or my rat rod kinda look.
    It has a chevy crate 350 motor with Vortech heads and hei distributor. Two inch drop coils in the rear and drop spindles in the front. Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: 1972 Chevy C10 Highlander Longbed
Looks like a good truck. I like the way it sits. I would just build it the way you would like it.

That's what I'm thinking. Might give it a hint of highlander in the rat rod feel. Coming up with some ideas slowly. Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: 1972 Chevy C10 Highlander Longbed
First car show inside the local mall. I'm just a couple weeks away from recieving my tax refund "hot rod stimulus check" to redo the whole interior, lights all the way around and get me a rear bumper.

Re: 1972 Chevy C10 Highlander Longbed
If you redo the seat hang onto that cover if the plaid is in decent condition.
Looks like a great project  And welcome to the forum

Re: 1972 Chevy C10 Highlander Longbed
This last weekend my son and I enjoyed a car show and having our truck in it. He ended up winning a model drag car from a drawing.
 Over this weekend I got all my led lighting installed all the way round with my Halo headlights up and running. I'll post a link to a video below.   The link for my video clip of all my led lights up and running. https://youtu.be/CtSSMEMxo6s Also painted my visors black and will be painting the door panels black as well once I remove them. Just waiting for the tool to get the pins out.

Re: 1972 Chevy C10 Highlander Longbed
A little before and after for the rear of my truck. Just got my smoothie chrome bumper on. About time I get a rear bumper after owning it for almost a year.

Re: 1972 Chevy C10 Highlander Longbed
Painted my door panels black. Now a little touch to do on them. Thought it was cool with the original door panels the codes on the back for the other colors.

Re: 1972 Chevy C10 Highlander Longbed
Yesterday I spent a few hours ripping everything out and putting in my new sound deadener, heat shield, and carpet. I was lucky enough that my wife was there to help out and take some pics.
