Re: 68 C 10 stepside "My American Bulldog"
I came across a deal yesterday, That I couldn't pass up.
A 1928 Fordor Sedan. Cab, Front fenders, Hood, And frame. $400 ![]() Of coarse, The wood is shot ![]() ![]() I'm thinking a 3" chop, "Z" the frame. Drop it to the ground. Give it a bowtie transplant. Two tone teal. And weld the back doors in. But of coarse it will have to wait until I finish my truck. But here are a few shots Spike ![]()

Re: 68 C 10 stepside "My American Bulldog"
nice project!! heres a few picts of my 30 two door. my grandfather bought this car in 1957 and drove it for years. he gave it to me when I was 7 and I dreamed of driving it all through highschool. when I actually got the car home I was kind of upset with how little room there was inside the car. I robbed the motor and trans and ended up putting them in my 48 chevy pick up instead. so at this point the car just sits outside under a tarp awaiting its turn back in the shop. thanks for sharing your picts, kind of makes my eyes a little wet when I think of the connection with my grandfather. wish he was here to see the finished car.

Re: 68 C 10 stepside "My American Bulldog"
I was looking around town, For some welding clamps.
The ones for butting panel to panel. And no one here in B@mF&ck SW Georgia sells them. So I decided to make them. I had most of the stuff laying around anyways. All I had to buy, Was a roll of pipe hanger strapping. For a $1.67. All you need is a piece of 1x1 square tubing. Some 1/4 x 20 bolts, washers, nuts, And wing nuts. I thought some of you would enjoy this ![]() Spike ![]()

Re: 68 C 10 stepside "My American Bulldog"
And some more pics
I guess these would have cost $20-30 to buy on line, and ship. But my total investment, is $1.67, and an hour of my time. ![]() Spike ![]()

Re: 68 C 10 stepside "My American Bulldog"
Hey Spike, What kind of headers are those? I'm needing some. Will they stay in that condition. Or will the heat change the coating. I got a perch motor mount and I'm concerned about fitment. Help me out ole buddy!!!!!
