Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
That back window used to be a kit back in the mid-80s. A buddy of mine had one in a 72 step. Sweet looking and clean. I would think you could use the toyota truck mechanism to do the same thing now.

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
I'm callin BS on that. It requires more fab work than just a simple kit. Not trying to be an @$$, just callin it the way I see it. Hope someone can prove me wrong

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
I'm a bit jealous of his resources. I wish I could dump 40 to 50 grand on my truck. I would still do it myself though (and it wouldn't come out that nice because I am learning as I go.)
I do agree that you should take the time to spell check the ad for a truck you hope to get $84,000 for (judging by the "But It Now" price.) Actually... it's one of those things that I more appreciate than want. When mine is done I plan to drive it around. I would no more drive that truck around than I would use one of my oil paintings as a kite! For someone who wants to show a truck -- that thing is just the ticket. I know I would have to stand back so as not to drool on it. Like everyone else -- I like the back window. I love the seat.. I want one! Something else I noticed; the booster sits flush with the firewall. That is a very cool mod .. I may have to noodle out how to do that myself.

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
You guys need to find better things to do then to pick apart . All you do when somebody posts up a truck is pick it apart. It is rediculous.

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
I do a vaguely remember a roll down rear window kit for mini trucks (Nissan, Toyotas, etc) but I'm with Frizzle on one for the fullsize trucks.

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
I remember one for full size trucks but it was a 73-up that it was installed on. I'm not sure what the original application was.....

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
Yes, there were kits available for a roll down rear window. NO this is not one of them. Those kits used the top half of the stock rubber and rolled down in to a rather large box that went behind the seat. Guess that would exclude it from being available for 67-72 GM trucks since there is no room behind the seat unless you remove the gas tank.
C'mon guys you can do better than that...

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
Red is not my favorite color choice but I will say that truck is tastefully done and would also look GREAT in my garage!! I will say good luck to the seller as you hardly ever get back out what you put into a project like that......just look at most rides at Barrett Jackson where a lot of the cars that cross have major $$ in them and go for way less with no reserve. I will say I have saved pics of that truck to my pc and will reference them occasionally for ideas.

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
Wow, great truck. I didn't even read the description, just looking at the pictures. I spent more time reading this thread about the description.

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
Well worth $60K if you have the money. I would be hard to build that truck for any less.

Re: Nasty 70 c-10 Full custom on ebay...linky
It is a nice truck, seems to me he is trying to get what he has in it. Good luck with that.
