Re: My 73 c10 project.....
nice build man truck looks good. How wide are those wheels was thinking of getting those or the coys. Take some good photos of bed floor when you raise it man.

Re: My 73 c10 project.....
The new Street Trucks mag has a write up on the new No Limit fuel cell its completly bolt in with new crossmembers with it and priced pretty fairly I think and it still allows you to lay out too
