Re: Owen's C10
set the cab back on the frame to make room in the shop, I will have to take it back off 100 more times for the motor/trans, driveshaft, exhaust, etc. and to run the wiring for the taillights and the battery cable which run through the frame...

Re: Owen's C10
thanks! it does look a 1000 times better
thanks! I'm very pleased with how it turned out, but it did require a lot of effort...now I could go the extra mile and cut and polish the frame but I'm not sure I wanna open another can of worms...

Re: Owen's C10
Nice job on the frame! When I saw your posts on IG, I thought it was a throwback. I didn't realize you hadn't painted it already. You got quite a bit done in a short amount of time. I need your motivation.
