Re: My project c10 build thread

So decided to do things a little different, i did a mild 1 3/4" chop at the rear window, then lean the frt winshield pillars back that way its like a 2" chop in the frt,then cut the truck in half so i could stretch the cab.

Re: My project c10 build thread

Also had to cut the doors in half and stretch the doors the same amount as the cab, also posted a photo of the stretch door on the lt and a stock door on the rt to compair the difference.
