  11. ive shaved the cab completely now doors,drip rails,wiper cowl,back of cab and side markers and for the bed ive mad a rollpan still needs alot of work to look good some of the inside of bed is starting to look better
  12. ive allways wanted build a 80's c-10 model finaly found one on ebay for a decent price..i havent even had it an hour and ive allready cut the bed floor out and raised the floor to clear the wheels this prolly wont be the actaull wheels i run on it for good just not feeling the look of them on the truck..ill have more pictures by toinight or tomorrow!
  13. ok so got it painted the cab needs be resanded and painted it came out ok but the passenger fender kinda messed up but what wheels do yall think look better im kinda feeling the bigger wheels a lil better now theres paint over the old skool billets
  14. hey i did to get your scans my yahoo put them in spam for some reason lol..but thanks alot kinda gives me an idea of an old skool build lata on
  15. okay so heres some of the pictures of the progress..i thought the doors were done for good but once i shot some primer on them you could see where they used to be still and the passenger door had a small hair line crack as you can kinda see in pictures other then that what do yall think of the hood its still on in putty but you can kinda see the shape its gonna take
  16. no nick i never did..but heres another email of mine that seems work alot better then yahoo lol... itsonly24s@gmail.com hope it works this time
  17. a little update..i got all of the bed work on the outside done and bed reprime grey wont be able finish the inside untill i build the new back half..started back on the whats gonna be my own custom cowl hood all i have do is build the sides and add some putty and it should be done soon.as for the front frame rails put one more coat of putty and they will be done allso.should have ya'll some new pictures of the progress by tonight with the doors shaved allso plz stay tuned
  18. ive allways seemed to have better luck with the glazing bondo then anything else its easier to sand and only a total of 3 bucks lol..and yea im guessing its actually bodydropped the frame is cut down as if it was a stock floor bodydrop and the bed lays on the ground automatically i put all of the interior in last night just as a test fit the front seems like it may need more cutting..i have seen some dropped trucks with bodydrops so it wouldnt suprise me if thats how truck was done in reall life
  19. so decided keep all the inerior stock and in the colors it came molded in about the only thing itll have done to the interior is a fancy chrome steering wheel.as for the frame ive so far shaved the whole front clip and smoothing it in gonna build my own custom control arms..i got most of the motor together its gonna be all black the color it was molded in with all the stuff that comes chrome on it i think it'll look good...well heres some pictures let me know what yall think of the progress...
  20. rear is all off of a corvette and the front just looks like a factory front end with cut coils..im rebuild the back end so it'll lay out on the ground with the corvette rear end the front im just make some custom control arms
  21. finaly back in from work was looking forward to building this truck finaly only to find i have to do more to it then i was wanting too this truck allready comes bodydropped so my plans of building it after my buddys truck are kinda out the window so ive decided i will buy anothe single cab lata on and go threw with that idea..but now im stuck on which way go this truck looks great on the old skool billets but allso looks good on the newer style 24's but im kinda digging the old skool billets it gives the truck a 90's show scene look..what do yall think?which wheels should i go with!!??!!sorry the bed is pink i was just ready prime the bed so i could see if the body work was done...
