Re: 1966 C10 Project Truck
I am liking the new look. Are you going to use the same caps?

Re: 1966 C10 Project Truck
Looks good! Know what it's like to loose a clutch. haha Luckily mine is mechanical, the bell crank broke on mine shortly after I put a new clutch in. Cruising through town at night and stopped at a light....wouldn't go back in gear! Limped home and found the bell crank broken. Needless to say about an hour later I had it welded up and been fine since. Love these old trucks!

Re: 1966 C10 Project Truck
Thanks! I'll have the rear done tonight so I'll definitely grab a picture
![]() I am. The wheels use the same caps so it'll look pretty close to what it was just way more aggressive ![]() |

Re: 1966 C10 Project Truck
Got the 5 lug swap done last night and I wasn't sure if I could fall in love with this thing anymore but it happened. Wheels are 18X9 Rev 107s that I had powdercoated black and tires are 275/40r18 Hankook Ventus R-S4s. The fit on the rear fenders couldn't be more perfect, it has about 1/2" clearance between the inside of the tire and the bed. I need to get it in for an alignment soon but holy cow is this thing fun now!

Re: 1966 C10 Project Truck
Looks like it made it to work. How does it ride and drive with the new shoes? Looks great by the way!!

Re: 1966 C10 Project Truck
Thanks dad! The ride itself is harsher because there is less sidewall but it drives pretty nice! The wider tires have accented the fact that the alignment is out so I'll have to get that taken care of soon. The rear tires fit very well, couldn't have asked for a better fit!
