Lowered dump trucks

Have my eye on a 70 c30 dump. Starting to to think it would be cool lowered. Has it been done? is it still functional? I only ask because with new weight limit laws here they won't hardly put a ton on material on a dump, so I thought lowering one would be fine, and be kinda cool with a rat rod twist. Thanks Timmy

Re: Lowered dump trucks

I would think that heavy duty bags would work better than a static drop. Do you have any pics of the truck in question? Nice looking truck btw. Love the ones that still haul like a truck should.

Re: Lowered dump trucks

Don't have pics of the one I am looking at. It's on Cl at the moment in Bloomsburg pa. I need a dump for various things I do for work and thought it would be cool to do one up kinda funky. Maybe it's a pipedream but it kills two birds, have a functional project...when I am done flip it...lol ...if I could ever make money off these trucks.
