Re: Operation Short Bed

Now time to do a little tweaking on the C10. Then time to put the SLICKS on her and see what it'll do at the dragstrip.

Re: Operation Short Bed

Well I was digging up some old pictures the other day and thought I would share.
Here is what the 1972 C10 LWB looked like right after I bought it for $100 back in 2001.


Here is what it looked like in 2004 after I got it painted.


2011 right before we started cutting it down and making it a SWB.


April 2012 HELLO SWB


Hope you all enjoy the time line of pictures.

Some interior pictures, that is what is on the agenda next.



Already got the seats I want. So any ideas that any of you have would be great to share with me.

I know they were SCAT RAVE SEATS and I bought them back in 2004. When I ordered them they said they would fit a 1972 C10. Well they do pretty good with a little bit of modification.

Re: Operation Short Bed

Nice truck and I think those wheels you've picked will set it off a bunch.

Re: Operation Short Bed

very nice build and I sure it was worth the effort it could be my puter but it looks when it went to get the bed painted the whole truck changed colors. paint looks very nice. will look forward to seeing the new wheels.
