My test fit went well and it should be easy. My (likely unnecessary) worry is not having the carpet in the right spot for the first cut and then having it eternally out of place. I'm OCD and that would make me nuts. The truck is looking awesome (yours, not mine) Posted via Mobile Device

Re: 71 C10 project "Double Tap"
Great progress. I love the paint combo for sure. How did the PB hinges work out with the capped wire track? I'm debating capping it off before or after I get my hinges.

Re: 71 C10 project "Double Tap"
That would be very helpful. I like the clean look of the shaved channel but didnt want it to cause a major pain in the end.

Re: 71 C10 project "Double Tap"
Thanks everyone. I will get some pictures up tonight. Plan to get out there this evening and get the steering back in to see where my additional knuckle needs to be. Them on to the pedal linkage and finish master cylinder install. And much much more!

Re: 71 C10 project "Double Tap"

Re: 71 C10 project "Double Tap"
I just came across your build and its awesome. I like your work and I like the theme. I have two questions for you. 1 is did you have to notch the core support to make a little room for the steering box? and 2 is with the 3" z did you have to do anything with the trans tunnel in the cab floor? it didn't look raised. thanks
