It's a one of a kind custom fabricated piece.....I'm doing something similar on mine after seeing it. Will be incorporating the back of the rad support more on mine though.....front will be almost identical...

68GMCCustom · 03-18-2010, 04:24 PM

Is it based off of some other manufactured piece thats modified?
Or is it a custom fabbed fiberglass piece?

VA72C10 · 03-18-2010, 04:54 PM

It is custom made one of a kind out of metal!

Jeffs70 · 03-18-2010, 05:09 PM

Another nice looking C-10! Makes me want to bag mine. Guess that'll be the next project once I get bored with the static drop.

Engine compartment is looking great! Keep up the good work.
Any idea on the tire/wheel combination on that grey and silver truck? The stance and that color combination is bad a_ _!
