JWall... I kept seeing this thread and never got a chance to get a post in. Beautiful '72!

And, I think you're making the right decision with the 4/6 drop on it. Keep us posted on your progress, and we need more pics!!!

Re: My New Truck... 72 C-10

Thanks for all the compliments guys.

I am excited about the truck. It is the first truck I've bought that was so close to finished but I am enjoying changing around a few things to my preference, and giving it a good detailing.

I ordered the drop kit today & I am going to do it over the long New Years weekend.

I think the thing that I was up in the air about was the wheels. When I saw the truck had rallys on it I all but ordered wheels before I ever got the truck home. But I am really liking the rallys on it & have decided I will probably roll them for a while.


I will keep you guys updated and with pics.

They do grow on you after a while don't they?

I had similar thoughts/concerns with my truck and running ralleys but after a quick repaint and some new decals on the caps, we were ready to run.

I smell a build/project thread, does anyone else smell that?
