Re: Project 1970 Step side C10
The seats are out of like a 2002-2005 Wide track GP. The seats were pretty easy to fab brakets for except the rear of the drivers side. The track is not steal, so I had to bolt a bracket to it, then to the floor.

Re: Project 1970 Step side C10
I like the look of it, but I would need something else to go with it, just not sure what.

I was over to your house a couple weeks ago and we didn't get anything done. Maybe next time.

Re: Project 1970 Step side C10
I got a little done tonight on the truck, started by removing the rear axle and cleaning the gunk off of it and making 1 1/4" lowering blocks for the rear, just for now, I still want to get an air bag setup. I will be removing the stock fuel tank tommarow.

Re: Project 1970 Step side C10
Tonight I got the body taken off and put the rear end back under the frame. Lots of work to be done to the frame now that I can see it. As well as the cab. I ordered new cab supports the other day, so hopefully I can get them on soon. Its starting to get cold out and I want to get this thing painted before snow flys.

Re: Project 1970 Step side C10
Thank you for the posts, but I am jealous of most of the people on here, because they have bottomless pockets and unlimited warm weather. Its starting to get cold here. I have a 100,000 btu furnace in the barn, but its not insulated yet.
I havent been working on the truck in a couple day because I am finishing off my basement so my brother and his wife can move in. (someone to help work on the truck!!!!!) But I will get to work on it this weekend. I also got a box from LMC, new cab mounts and lots of bolts for the box and fenders.

Re: Project 1970 Step side C10
Thank you for the comments!!!
Today I got the bottom of the cab scraped and replaced all four cab supports. It worked out pretty good except for the bolt holes didn't line up very well. I only have a few more spots to cut out and replace and the bottom is done. ![]()
