Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!

Here's a couple pics of a 79 1 ton dually I recently shortened to a short bed length. Was going to put it under my 68 Dually but after reading all the trouble with the swap I went ahead and just shortend my original frame 60 inches. Yep 60.
So now, what to do with this one? I do also have 4 squares sitting at my mountain property so I might just wait on this one for a future project.
Anyhow, saw this thread asking for pictures of 73-97 1 ton dually and thought you guys might want to see pics of what one looks like undressed?

Just about done with my 4wd conversion. Have to mount the front shocks and brackets and finish the crossmember for the engine.

Here's a sketch of a Chevy C60. Not exactly a 1-ton but it is a dually.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
