Nice! You gonna keep the original paint on yours too?

Got a little more done. Was playing around and decided to lay the frame on the ground for the first time. The frame is resting on these little factory frame stiffener bends, do they need to be cut off? Do I need to weld in a little patch panel?

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

Great progress! You should put a guard dog to watch those tires and wheels though. Too much $$$$!!!!
