Re: My 1972 chevy c10 father/son build

you were asking about using a 69 door on your 72? Someone can correct me if I am wrong but I believe that your 72 door panels may not work unless you change the window regulator and inside door handle stud, I think the 72 has longer shafts on both to make up for the thickness of the door panel. I could be wrong, but was just a thought. Also the 72 door has a recess with a screw in it just below and to the rear of the vent window, I have a 69 and got a 72 door for it and noticed these differences.

Re: My 1972 chevy c10 father/son build

I guess being grounded isnt so bad because i have got alot done this weekend
I put on new brake pads, changed my wheel bearings, Primed my new fender and bed to it would match a little better, and painted my top. Now all my friends call my truck a oreo but they said they like it so I guess its alright to have a oreo

Well here it is its dupli-color flat white

Before



After its really dirty in these pictures

Re: My 1972 chevy c10 father/son build

Oh yeah I forgot to say that Im pretty sure I got a job now. Its a body shop called Darrens, my vo tech teacher told me that he was looking for some help and i went up there to talk to him and he seemed like he liked me and would prob hire me

Now i will finally have my own money to spend and i might actually get more work done so I dont have to ask my dad for some money
