Re: 67 C-30 Dually pickup build.
I measured the overall width of my rear end with all 4 tires and wheels installed, and determined how much of the stepside fender I needed to cover the outside wheel.

I finished mounting them today. Here are a few pics of the mounting brackets I welded on the backside. I used a total of 10 bolts and they pulled the flares up nice and tight to bedside. Now I am going to take them back off, and strip/sandblast and POR-15 the back side. I am trying to decide whether to use seam sealer or fender welting between the flare and the bedside. I'm also going to fill the marker lights on the bedside and the flare since its a '67.

Re: 67 C-30 Dually pickup build.
I like the Way that you Did that, Seem's a Lot Better than welding it up. If you ever were to get any Damage to one of the Fender's you would be able to Replace it...............
Thanks for Sharing, Rick PS, I Think i would go with the welting |

Re: 67 C-30 Dually pickup build.
looking good!
sometimes i think these trucks should've came dually with extended fenders from the factory, they look right with them. i also like the bracket mounting idea. practical, but still looks really good. i can't wait to see this thing get closer to coming all together and getting to be one color and enjoyed. i'll be watching. keep up the good work! -Sam. |
Re: 67 C-30 Dually pickup build.

I just got done marking and drilling the holes and mocking up the driver's fender. It measures up the exact as the passenger side, so I guess my fab skills aren't as bad as I thought. The tape line is where I am going to cut out the fleetside bed for wheel clearance like a factory dually pickup is. I still have to take the stepside fender off and do that, but I wanted to make sure everything was concentric from side to side. Here are some more pics. After I get the bedside cutout, I'm going to put the outer wheels back on and see how it looks. |

Re: 67 C-30 Dually pickup build.
Looking good. Makes me miss mine more and more. Mine is sitting in the garage getting ready for winter. Had it to a show 3 hours away from home 2 weeks ago and she has been sitting since. Probably going to be sitting for another week as I am going away. Makes me sad. At least seeing you working on yours makes me feel better.

Re: 67 C-30 Dually pickup build.
I love to be able to build a dually like that. You have done a great job with the fenders. Cool idea with the pencil. I would have never though of that. Excellent job!

Re: 67 C-30 Dually pickup build.

Re: 67 C-30 Dually pickup build.
That black one looks like a decent truck!:c2: I sported mine around this evening for the first time since I got it all mocked up. Got a lotta looks and double takes from a bunch of folks. I took it to a few of my buddie's places and showed to a few guys at couple of shops I deal with. Like a lot of people I told about what I wanted to do, they didn't "get" my vision until they actually saw it. A few even admitted that they didn't think it would look good w/o actually seeing it.

I digitally removed the side markers on the rear, and it cleans up the look a lot! |
Re: 67 C-30 Dually pickup build.
No side markers & a 6/8 drop would do wonders !!!
