Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

Interior looks sick! What brand paint did you use? Also what are the for gauges for in the gauge panel? The 2 white ones look like dual needle for bag pressure. What about the black 2? Keep it going!

Thanks bro, the paint is a custom mix and tint of PCL epoxy from Finnish masters in Stockton it was (white,yellolw,blue&black). The 2 silver gauges are dual needle AVS air ride, and the black 2 are SW Oil psi and water temp...

Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

you just cant beat the look and style of a 63.. I think one of the things I like best is the steel interior ... I am so interior challenged ... just the seat .. I like that ....

Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

What up? Any updates on yours? Is the glass back in and out driving it around again? You did it right buying a running truck! Got to drive it before all the upgrades! And now seeing and feeling the difference. Your truck is CLEAN!

Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

I'd love to see the details on the raised bed. That's on my agenda for december/january for my '61. I want to have 'original' looking bed wood, but need it raised for obvious reasons.

Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

Just finished reading your build here, very nicely done!!
I had to take some notes, and will be following some of your mods for my rig too.
Thanks for feeding the photo addiction too.

Wife asked me the other day if I was worried about remembering how to put it all back together, and last night while I was catching up on some other builds I showed her some of the more than abundant photos of different stages of assembly and disassembly on this site.
No need to worry, just gotta remember who had that one thread, where they did that thing... you know... that really cool mod or paint or wiring or....

LOL
thanks for sharing anyways!!
