My 66 Kustom
Its been a while since I posted but wanted to show you guys how my truck is coming along. Its a 66 c-10, 2" Z'ed frame, 1.5" crossmember section, 3" drop spindles, monster notch in the rear, custom watts-link, and bagged at all four corners.
Here are some paint pics before clear coat      some frame pics     Still need to do a couple of things to the frame before the body goes back on. Hope you guys like it.

Re: My 66 Kustom
Are you going to box the trailing arms before you put the bags on?

Re: My 66 Kustom
Thanks guys.... Yeah I still need to finish a couple of things and one of them was reinforcing the trailing arms. I also want to add some cross bars to the rear notch. I will take some new pics of the cab soon as it has the clear coat on it.
