TIMMY D .......... in da Haus !!!
LOL Photos look all kinds of cool with that building you chose in the background. I had to look twice to make sure that 1930 sedan was just a painting !! Rock on man, keep on doing what you are doing dude, it is pretty cool stuff and inspirational to me.

my buddy and i tend to get a little crazy when we work on each others rides, try and keep it fun and make each other laugh so it doesnt seem to much like working...and i needed something to protect the eyes...still ended up swallowing a pound of sand with no mask..I like how the underdash vents turned out also they dont look to out of place i think fit pretty well , waiting for the 2" heater duct to show up so i can finish the heat system and see how well they work Quote:

Finally got the hidden hitch installed with the help of richie and his welder, didnt like how i was going to have it bolt in so we decided to weld it in and boxed in the back 7" of the frame rails and welded the hitch receiver in then i made a license plate frame out of some flat stock with a couple hinges and now i have my hidden hitch with a flip up license plate:    my old chrome license plate frame is pretty bent and beat up so Im on the look out for some new ones for the front and back since they dont match ,and in the process of taking the license plate off and on I accidentally pulled the wires out of one of my led bolt lights.....just ordered a new set to fix that screw up and need to wire in a trailer plug, but all in all i like how it turned out!

Re: Birth of a C10
not much for updates,been super busy working out of town of lately and no time for the truck or my 54 ford,ive only done maintenance lately, like change spark plug wires ,oil change things like that...Next major things on the list for the truck is ram horn exhaust all the way out the rear bed sides, maybe bucket seats, but thats all on hold tell time and money allow...hard having two projects and trying to spend money and time on both.
thanks for checking in though!

Re: Birth of a C10
Hey, man, just caught up on your build! I saw it on the H.A.M.B. awhile back, and read it, but I didn't post 'cause I'm not a member there. (my truck's too new, haha) I really like the way you use what you have, and your travel trailer has made me want a little one to pull with my stepside. Keep on it, you got some skills!

As far as a update I have absolutely nothing to post for the truck since I been carpooling out of town everyday for work , ive been so busy and truck just sits all week waiting for the weekend for me to drive it....but good news is we finshed that job and starting a new job closer to home and been putting money away in the bank...but whats the fun of working and saving money if you cant spend any??? My point exactly so thats why i took the ol red truck and swung by "Glendales" house and we took a little ride and had him help me load up my new to me 86 honda rebel 450 to build a bobber out of! Im the 2nd owner low miles and cheap $460 with the title......I know its a newer jap bike and not really a old harley or triumph that i cant afford but itll be my first bike build and was cheap and for sure going to be a learning experience! Wish me luck

Re: Birth of a C10
That's kool man. I just sold a '77 Honda 750 Cheap. I was the second owner too. Had very low miles. I bought it. Stored it for awhile and then sold it. Made a small profit ta boot. Really fun bikes. Good luck and man can't wait to see more work on the ole pick it up.

Good lookin bike, dude! Looks like a solid foundation for your build. Also, I always thought them longbed trucks looked SWEET with a bike in the back!!
