Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
Thanks Nick!
Good to meet you too, thanks for showing me the GMC! I'll be sure to come by once I'm rolling again. I'll be bringing a ton of parts across the street to the Powder coat shop here soon, and the whole chassis and I'll stop by if I see your truck out front.

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
More progress! Front end is basically done and hooked up to temporary air to raise up and down. Just pulled the cab off today and started grinding off 2 million bastard rivets (I hate those stubborn sobs).
Also got the super wide 24x15s mounted up and balanced on the 405/25r24 Pirelli's! Can't wait to get them on! front 22x8.5 are on too with Goodyear Super Car F1 255/35r22 tires

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
Great progress! You should put a guard dog to watch those tires and wheels though. Too much $$$$!!!!

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
Looks great. I'm jealous! Wish I had taken more time building my truck. Love that Porterbuilt front cross member setup.
Love to see another Olive brethren. Especially one that looks like yours.

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
Bad ass build, I can't wait to see it finished. Good call on getting those Pirelli's before you started your build. Pirelli just discontinued them. I've been trying to find a set.
