The last 2 pics were taken yesterday, I forgot to set the date on my camera. Time to get to work!
Very nice truck!

My favorite two vehicles C10 and a 56 Chevy my dad and I had one of those as well wish we could have kept that one two....Atleast I still have my truck

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
Finally got the raised bed floor fabricated. Just threw the old wood back on to see what it looked like. Now I need to take it back apart, get the bed back off and start doing body work on the bed. It's hard to find time to work on this thing.

mike, what did you use to raise your bed floor?
it looks as tho it bolts to the floor, which if it does, would make life easier for me

***and also it was nice talking to you as well at the car show,
absolutely love that truck!!!
but once im up and running i'll let you know!
also, i'll get a 2nd build page set up here,
as the one i started one on porterbuilts page has some how vanished!

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
kvn1011 I made a framework out of 1x1 angle iron. And yes it is bolted to the bed sides and floor. Like to see your truck when you get it rolling.
