Re: 1967 c10 longbed chop
No going to run whitewalls on the wheels in the pictures below. The tires will be a smaller size though. The tires in the picture are trailer tires and are 29 1/2 inches tall. I also do not have drop spindles so if i need to go lower in the front i can get some. I want to run these wheels because they match the patina look of the truck which im keeping

Re: 1967 c10 longbed chop
is it 12 inches off the middle and 8 off the back? im getting ready to chop my 67. any advise would be great. i pulled the bed off today and found they had welded 1/8 diamond plate over the top of the wood planks.. lol the woods shot out, but all the hardware seems to be there.
