Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
pics of carpet,
also I checked my 6 lug rallys with these disc brakes, looks like i'll be narrowing the other 12 bolt rearend by 4 inches, if I stay with drum brakes I can just add 4 inches to the back of the rims! but with these calipers that have the built in e-brake the bracket with the spring might have to be shaved a lil on the corner, or something! will still have to check some more on this!!!

Shipping is why I have been reluctant to buy a hood, don't want it damaged. I'm gonna take a trip sooner or later and pick one up somewhere's.

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
the welds could have looked better but I was pushing it with the Hobart welder welding 1/4" plate, and trying to fill in some of the gaps that the cpp notches had to my frame, should have got a torch and heated it up to get the gaps a lil closer, but don't have one yet! but im going to fill it all in grind fill grind fill, get it all smooth and looking good!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
you're doing good dude. welds look strong.
and a big happy fathers day to you, and your dad. the road trip we're planning is 'pistons and paint' its early in november. a couple of weeks after the cruise-in at my place. so, keep working on your truck and even if stuff gets in the way... roll it up on a trailer and get it there. |

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
ok so I got an update, been repainting the back half of the frame! but mostly I took out the 7/16" wheel studs and put in dorman #310-327 studs they are 1/2" and they work with 2007 lug nuts so they will work with the caps that go with my stock 2007 rims!
I also took out the old bearings and seals an put in new bearings and seals don't have the bearing part number but do have the seals part number! i also welded in the notches on the inside an got them painted, painted my brake calipers and the axle ends! anyways here is some pics

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
thanks don, it sure was fun for me an the kids, the wife not so much she sprained her ankle pretty good! black and blue about two fingers width and length right about the heel bone, she is healing up slowly
well enough about that, I haven't really done much to my truck since I did a lil grinding on the back of the cab an found more rust that will need patching! was a lil depressed seeing it, an they don't make patches for what I need so yesterday at work I found some scrap 2x2 1/4" square tubing and some 1-1/2x1-1/2 angle iron and welded them together, long story short it will work like an aftermarket piece would! I think it would work better really, since I made it, lol! I still need to cut up some metal for the patches and try it out! I will get pics of the jig I made and after I get some metal bend up for the rust! so in to the rust pics!!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
Looks like the cab corners from the pics, which they do make a small patch for. I have some good portions on the back of my donar cab if I knew what your looking for size wise
