Amazing... I would have never guessed a 327 under the hood though...
Put a cummins 4bt and a brownie trans in and have a real wonder...at the same time, I probably wouldnt change anything on it for nostalgia sake. ~Zach |

I asked mar-K for black powdercoated strips but they only make them for older stepsides I think...
$6K is a very very good price for that rig. Did you build it then?

Re: 1968 C-30 dually longhorn mutt......Just about complete
Wow! That makes it even more cool! So you didn't have to modify the rear axle? I was wonderin how you made a dual wheel setup fit under with no exterior fenders. How bout the wheel base? Did you have to stretch the frame?

Re: 1968 C-30 dually longhorn mutt......Just about complete
Did/does the truck have any rust? Did you get the underdash a/c installed? Looking for a starter truck for my son. Do you have any pictures of the chassis or under the hood? Any other pictures would be great. Send to robhartley@aol.com. I know you have a set of Buddy Buckets set back for it.....
