Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Love the bedliner tinted inside the cab... to get your photos to come out in the correct orientation remember when you take the photo with your phone to make sure its straight on the phone first. Still having issues then rotate them in whatever host site you are using.

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Decided to switch up the braking and steering. I didn’t like the pedal so I switched it from a booster to hydro boost. I made my own brackets and powder coated it. I had some hoses made and it works great. Stopping power is much improved. Hydro boost also fixed my random no power steering at start up.

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Was working on my barn/shop addition the other day and took a pic of the truck from the roof.

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
They will always look right when viewed from phone, but how it shows up here depends on the way it was actually stored on your device. I fixed it 4 ya.

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Thanks. On that last pic it originally uploaded upside down. I went back in and flipped it in my phone and reuploaded it, and it still showed up upside down.

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
What I figured out with my old Galaxy s7 (went for an unexpected swim) and replacement Galaxy s8 is that the way you take the picture on the phone matters how it shows up on the board.
Here's how I ensure my pics turn out right on the board: Looking at the phone screen, tilt phone horizontally to the left. I take every picture that way, and it has worked great for me. If the phone is straight up and down for me, the pic will look sideways on here. If it is tilted towards the right, it will be upside down on here. Hope that helps!

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Made a grab bar to keep metal from sliding up and hitting the cab. I made the center unbolt in case I end up selling the truck. Figure I might as well advertise for myself in the mean time.

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Probably my favorite view of the truck.

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Awesome rig! What did you end up getting that hydroboost out of? Part number/ year/ truck. I’m not having much luck with my booster and thinking about going that way

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
I give up on the picture orientation. It’s correct on my iPad. I don’t use a host site to post so sorry everyone. If it’s too annoying I guess go follow me on Instagram.

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Made a rack on the back of the truck to prevent metal from hitting the cab when I load it.

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Appreciate you sharing the pics, who cares if they are not right side up. Both your rigs look great, job well done on the C50!

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
Put my custom seat in. Purchased the plaid 1972 Highlander fabric from SMS Auto Fabrics. Had a local guy make the cover.

What do your students think about your truck when you drive it to school?

The matching shift boot is a nice touch. Perhaps I missed it elsewhere in this thread but what kind of teaching gig do you have and yes, what do your students think about your custom rigs?

Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid
I’m actually the dumb gym teacher. The ones that are into cars and trucks love my old trucks. Then some think my panel truck is weird or creepy. lol. Most of the staff I work with think my trucks are cool.

Truck has been great. Put a lot of miles on it. Here’s some latest pics I took of it.
