The bumpers look like they started life as 67-68 camaro bumpers.

Re: California Rod And Customs 68 C-10 build

As I was reading this thread, I thought to myself that the only thing they didn't modify was the roof pane, and it turns out you pancaked that!

I really like seeing our C10's getting this much love.

Re: California Rod And Customs 68 C-10 build

Thanks for posting on the forum all your detailed pics. I have been following on your website for some time now and think this the is best build out there. It is simply a work of art.

Heres some new pictures straight out of the spray booth last night. The pictures do no justice as you can not see any of the metallics. Wet sanding and polishing coming soon!

Re: California Rod And Customs 68 C-10 build

Beautiful work. Is this gonna do auto-cross when it's done or just shows?

Re: California Rod And Customs 68 C-10 build

The sheetmetal work on this truck is so awesome, I have gone over the picts several times and I always find another detail that I did not see the time before.


Can you imagine superfly's frame under this body.......Now that would be a c10 at a level that i could not even imagine....
