Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
The front track is wider than the rear already and when you do the disk conversion up front it'll get wider yet. I'd use big-n-littles to offset that difference some.

And the last bit of paintwork for now was to put some matt clear over the dash before the windshield goes in!

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
Got the windshield in today! Gotta love the look of a new clear windshield! I ordered up the green tinted style and so far it looks pretty good. And of course my little guy gave it the thumbs up of approval!

I also went out and picked up the longbox frame thats going to be cut down! Frames nice and straight but its got a few issues that will need to be addressed.
My wife even showed up in the 68 to help! Lol |

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
Yup I'm not going to complain! kids like to help and she gives me my garage time and puts up with me buying lots of cars and parts! She's not really into the whole patina, air ride thing (yet) as she likes fancy wheels and paint jobs but i compremised and told her the old truck will have a "like new interior" for her when we cruise around!

Re: 67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!
Looking good! How tough was the windshield install? I've watched the videos that Precision puts up and it doesn't look very fun.
