Re: My 68 C30 is finished!
Very nice! Love the color-very clean looking and really like the engine and bay!!! Great valve covers-you won't mind opening the hood on this one.

Re: My 68 C30 is finished!
Love the color and the simplicity of the lines on the flatbed are very flattering to that truck. You knocked one outta the park with it.

Re: My 68 C30 is finished!
Regarding the carpet kit, I don't remember who's "kit" it was, but outta of the box and into the sun to soften it up, it sucked. I had to add a bunch of jute padding (especially over the hump) and spend several hours steaming and stretching it to fit. It turned out "ok", but still have room for improvement. Will be re-steaming it in the future, too busy with enjoying being able to take it to local car gatherings and driving it! I'm really surprised by everyone's reaction to this old flatbed, it's like they've never seen a flatbed before.

Re: My 68 C30 is finished!
Like PanelDeland said...it's the "simplicity". Maybe being a "dullie" gives it that....something I can't find the right words for....Musclular Stance!
How did the new bed wood turn out?
