Project "Redemption" 68 SWB Fleetside

[nds1968]

I hear you Keith, I had to sell some of my toys to gather some funds. I just don't want to wait any longer... I plan on having them fix the cab rust and paint the firewall at least. Getting married, buying a house and kids really put my project on the back burner... Nate

I can't wait to see yours done! I can use it as inspiration to finish mine as I know it will be done way before my project is

Hey Keith! Sitting here at work on a Saturday and read thru the build. I hadn't seen it since page 2 or 3 and just seen the IG updates. Coming along nicely and congrats on your son! They sure make life funner. Mine is 6 now and maybe Ill finish the truck before he's 16.

PS I've had that cab lifter in my ABTM cart for months, might make the plunge now after seeing how much it helped you out.

Good to hear from you Russ. Just a few changes since you last checked in, I got a new cab which cuts down on my rust work by about 99% which means the truck will now be Blue. Kind of always wanted a Light Blue C10. Oh and the fiasco with the wheels but lets not get into that as I'm still bothered by that ordeal.

Life is going to change some with the little guy coming, but I couldn't be happier about it and can't wait for him to get here. May take me 5 years to finish the truck now but I'm good with that At least the little guy can cruise with me in the truck when its done. I highly recommend the cab lifter, especially if you plan on taking the cab on and off a lot like I am. It makes for a one person job.

Nothing like cruising with your little buddy or princess. Check out my Instagram there is a video of me and my son rolling into the local street rod show. He was my shadow the entire weekend. Except, when he was running around buying fair food..

Also, on my Instgram account there is a picture of my buddy's 62 C10 that was painted with latex house paint. It funny he has about 300-400 in paint and body, people go crazy for his truck at shows.
