Re: lwb to swb
here's a thorough one - http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=333241
also recommend reviewing the 66 c10 shortening that was done on the trucks! tv show. The dvd is available online: http://www.powerblockswag.com/Trucks...hevyc10dvd.htm or you may be able to view the pertinent parts on yourtube or something like that. i think someone once posted a way to watch individual episodes, but I don't know how to do that... (so I bought the dvd). It's just all the episodes strung together with no commercials. |

Re: lwb to swb
I bought the episodes on itunes. I seem to recall that they did not mention the longer wheel openings of the long bed though.
