Nice looking project! And don't let peer pressure get to you...pace yourself and to the build how you want!

Re: My first build-1967 C10 LWB
I used some rattle can wheel paint I got from Kragen and then I sprayed on some clear coat.
Well it's been a long time but I finally have some updates. I've been really busy and not able to work on the truck. Now I've been doing work to the truck but forgot to post pics . So I got the front clip pulled off and I am cleaning up the frame and the engine compartment. I also ordered a new carb today since the one that come with the truck was a pile of junk. I'm going to prime the fenders, hood, and grille and I hope to have the truck back together in a few weeks but I don't know if time will allow. Also, I got a new stereo and speakers for christmas which I will be installing shortly. I'll get some pics up in a few minutes I have to sort through them all...

Re: My first build-1967 C10 LWB
Nothing major but my new fenders and hood are almost stripped. I've been really busy the past few weeks and i really haven't had much time to work on the truck, but school is ending in a couple of weeks so I will have a lot more time. I'll probably finish stripping the parts this week and I still need to finish getting the new cab prepped for the swap. When school gets out i'll be updating this a lot more.

Re: My first build-1967 C10 LWB
Cool. I love small-window '67s.
Los of elbow grease can make for a nice ride. Keep the Ford parts away! Don't want any inter-species contamination.

Re: My first build-1967 C10 LWB
Thanks for the comments guys. Yeah, the rally's really do make a big difference, I love how they look on these trucks. They are 6 lug 15x8 rally's with 275 65 15 treds.
Yeah, my brother owns three fords and he uses my truck for storage...haha. Made some more progress today. The radiator core support is now painted and the fenders and hood are almost ready for primer. I'll get some pics up tomorrow.

Re: My first build-1967 C10 LWB
Well, not really any updates to report but I do have a question. I pulled off a valve cover today to repaint it, and there is a white foam/milk like substance inside the valve cover and in the head. Do you guys think this is water in the oil? The engine has steamed a little bit (nothing bad) and we thought maybe it had a bad head gasket, which would explain this. Thanks
