Cool Re: My 1969 Chevrolet C-10 Short Wide Bed Pickup

Yeah, actually it was in horrible shape. I'm completely replacing the cab. I kinda don't have a choice as its too far gone. I found a 72 CST cab with A/C so I am going to use it.

The cross member was bent really bad. I believe they tried to connect a chair to it at some point and pull something that bent it. Replacing it I feel will be a better option. Scoti found the site below that sells the part rather cheap. I'm going to go that route. I'll post a pic of the damage probably tomorrow so you can see what I am talking about.

Looked like it was from a northern state!
That rear crossmember can be straightened w/ a torch, and hammer, no problem...
