Purchased some parts from Lanman1972 this week...Great guy!

And got to see this truck in person. WOW! The pictures do not do it justice. He's done a wonderful job with it! The attention to detail is phenomenal!

Thanks Daubs!

Bedsides and tailgate are painted, sanded, and polished.

Looks like the engine is getting ready to let go. Tons of smoke and almost zero oil pressure. Probably get a direct bolt in crate engine.

I installed an aftermarket grill and surround on my C30 and was not happy with the top gap at the surround. I ended up painting the (tabs) black so they are not that noticeable. Your 72 grill looks great but your 71 is just like mine. I wonder if I did something wrong.
Very nice build.

My compliments looks great certainly was a lot of work

Truck is finally done. Engine did let go so I installed a base L43 crate engine. I only have about 20 miles on it but is performing very well. Now hopefully get out and show it off!

That is just a really nice little truck. You should be proud of her.
