C10 LWB Pictures
Looking for some ideas for paint / body work to restore a 72 LWB. Does anyone have pictures of a restored long wheel base C10? I would like to keep the bronze color as I think it looks choice. And the side molding needs to go.
LWB Rules! Skydiver

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs. |

You'd be pleasantly surprised at the way new side moldings will make a fresh paint job pop. The long beds sometimes seem like there is just too much metal and color there and need to be broken up b some trim like that But if not - your choice - bronze is a good color

This is the best one I've seen yet. I like how you kept the ride height but made it look fast. What size wheels are those? Did you rise the front of the truck at all? Skydiver
