Re: 75 C10 shortwide driver
Finally got the motor buttoned up. My first cam swap was successful! Pretty simple other than having to drill and tap the crankshaft... crappy.. its now on to the bagged chassis!

Oh god.... the mirrors. They drive me crazy....... man o man..well, I have no idea, but they suck! And the ONLY bad parts on the entire truck are the doors, so I don't dare take the mirrors off, cause there will be some issues.... I need to get some new doors when I get this thing painted, then I'll put the sport mirrors on.

Re: 75 C10 shortwide driver
bolted up the wheels quickly.. I know the rear is backwardsGonna cut another quarter coil or so... what do you guys think? I have to check my backspacing, cause the fronts may my rub the fender. Bad for when its bagged...

mcboom... What's the backspace on the Bonspeed rears? I'm assuming they are 22x10's...? Love the stance of the gold and white!!!

No progress at all lately, but I scored some more NOS trim! All the cab trim for free! Score!

Re: 75 C10 shortwide driver
Thanks guys. I just wanted the front down a tad bit more.. I ended up buying new tires for the ralleys, so I'm rocking those. I actually like them better than the big wheels. I love big wheels when the are tucking

Re: 75 C10 shortwide driver
how hard is it to mount the cab trim if it was not on there from factory? My cab does not have the little nipples to mount the molding to? It looks like yours doesnt either...do you have a plan for that?
