Re: Rusbuilt's 68 C-10

I have done that before..Shot out a number I thought was crazy, and somebody was all over it. You just have to do what you want. You have put a lot of work into that truck, and its awesome, but you may benefit from selling it. You could go over the top on a single truck, or have two really cool ones. What a tough call!! This is one of those deals where no one can say what's best but you, I guess. Either way, I will be happy for you and help all I can with whatever you end up with.

Maybe im wrong but I dont think the longbeds go for much money restored unless they are 4x4 and loaded from the factory.

Thanks Matt! I think if he shows with the cash I'll take it. My wife and I are expecting our first child and it would be nice to have some extra cash in the bank plus some funds for the dually!

Re: Rusbuilt's 68 C-10

I'm feelin a dually build. Have you seen that one on the airbag thread that Dino63 built? One of my favorites of all time! I bet a little extra cash around for when the baby comes would be smart, too.

Re: Rusbuilt's 68 C-10

Love the truck/build looks great nice work. Probably missed it but what's the specs on the drop and tire size? You nailed the stance. I'm in the process of suspension and would love that setup.

Yes sir, plus just having one toy right now would make my wife sleep a little better. She just worries about paying insurance and all that on something that doesn't get driven much.

Thanks! the suspension set up is all from CPP products and the drop is 4.5" up front and 6.25" in the rear. It rides pretty good but I think the tires need to be a bit taller. It has 35 series tires on it and if I keep it I will go to a 40 series.

Re: Rusbuilt's 68 C-10

245/60/15 are the tires I ran on my 1967 GMC 4 1/2 front 6 inch in the back with a c notch. It cleared everything except for the hump to get it into the garage

The story goes my wife was on me about having two toys while we have a baby on the way.. So I decided to keep the dually because its is in amazing shape and the plans I have for it will be really unique and fun. I didn't advertise my truck at all a guy contacted me about buying it and I gave him a number and he said ok.... I'll start a new build thread for the dually soon! CC69Rat don't worry I'm still planing on doing the hot rod tour with the dually!
