Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
Sylvester's rebuild = worth every dime. Very nice before but stunning afterward. Why are you thinking about paint? It looks great to me Al.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
I would not say that. I love that truck I wish I was made of money I would have never sold the black truck.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
Hey Al is Sylvester sporting the rear bag top mounting hats or did you drill and mount the rear bags to the frame?

Yes the bags have the mounting hats on the top against the frame and are bolted at the bottom directly to the square tubing trailing arms Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
I love how Al calls this truck a bucket when it is easily one of the nicest trucks on this forum. Recent pics look awesome.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
Al, I am assuming you have the 67-69 rear housing under it (?)

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
Chad if I remember correctly he has the original wide 71 housing. I think his tires are really close to the fender lip but still work for him. I remember seeing pictures and discussions of it earlier in the thread.
