1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.

[jarrodblake]

Unfortunately No real progress has been made on the truck. I've been busy redoing the bead roller. The forward and reverse switch broke a few years ago and I have been wanting to finish it for a while now, That and I needed to make a table for it, it keeps leaving scratch marks when I make a turn.

I made a table out of leftover scraps.

I made some stand off to mount the table

I started tearing it down, I built it 9 or 10 years ago when I only had a cheap stick welder and just started to learn to weld, I warped it really bad and had to put it in a press to fix it.

Ready for paint. I was going to paint it the same color of the truck but I ended up finding some left over paint I used on the engine in a rat rod I had build a few years ago.
