Well as some of you might remember i had a 80 Chevrolet C-10 for about ten months..Well i sold that car to weeks ago and i got cash and a project for it. The project is a 78 Chevrolet C-10 Fleetside Longbed with Scootsdale equiepment. This truck is gonna be like the other Truck was gonna be..

Here is what it looked like...

Here is the cab coming of...

Here is the cab of and i can continue taking it apart..
My brothers 64 Bel air in the back..This will get big tires, atleast 20 and Air Ride suspension and killer paint job.

Here is the heater, dash and brake system gone.

A really nice project cab! Im gonna take out the dash..its welded but im gonna cut up the welds.
Plans for the cab at first:
Sandblasting.

Welding the rust (and only rust) around the frontwindow.

Delete the ashtray and glove door for a smooth look

Smooth the firewall and make a new bracket for the brake booster...to big..to ugly bracket....

This is just some of the many mods the cab will get..More info and pic are coming as i continue work on the truck.. Total amount of time yet is only 8 hours..

This is how the stance would be!

It will feature big billets, alot of billet details, killer paintjob, gaylord lid, air ride, four link, modern headlights, and almost every detail new! Gonna order a lot of parts for LMC ! Got a big list already!
