Here we go , 70 4x4 Crewcab 6.0 build - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

lousblown55chevy · 12-10-2014, 10:46 PM

Okay been collecting parts for 3 years , found a little time here and there to work on it a little , but it looks like I have the time to stay focused on it now , so I decided to post a build thread

lousblown55chevy · 12-10-2014, 10:50 PM

Here are pics of the dually bed we built

lousblown55chevy · 12-10-2014, 10:54 PM

A couple of pics with the 6.0 and 4L80E installed , if the funds are not to tight really considering a turbo kit , 650 hp range will help get this monster through a intersection a little quicker

lousblown55chevy · 12-10-2014, 11:02 PM

A mock up of the cab

**71blksuper4x4** · 12-10-2014, 11:14 PM

Looking good so far. They are time consuming! Trevor

lousblown55chevy · 12-10-2014, 11:18 PM

**71blksuper4x4** · 03-11-2015, 05:30 PM

Any updates?

lousblown55chevy · 03-11-2015, 08:09 PM

Winter has been hard on me had to pull the engine out of my 55 and make some changes. The truck is getting some time as I have it, we have the rear doors figured out and bought a roof from a full size van. Hope to have some progress pics up soon

cooperhw · 03-15-2015, 10:05 AM

Awesome build. It reaffirms my belief that "I am not alone out there". People have asked my why would you build a 68 1ton dually short bed step side? I answer because I have not seen another. Would be cool to go to a major show and have the "only one there like it".
That cab back sure looks familiar too.

SS Tim · 01-23-2018, 10:31 PM

Are there any other cab construction or completed pictures of your truck posted?
This is the only other I can find.

lousblown55chevy · 01-24-2018, 04:32 PM

I have been posting on a few pages on Facebook , its just so much easier , I will work on updating here when we are finished with the paint , should be in about 3 weeks

lousblown55chevy · 01-24-2018, 04:57 PM

Trying to add pics from my phone

SS Tim · 01-24-2018, 06:12 PM

Thanks for the update and we look forward to seeing some pictures!

It gives hope to a truck I'd still like to build, a 4x4 Longhorn 30 in the Alton conversion style.

lousblown55chevy · 01-24-2018, 07:34 PM

For some reason the pics on my phone download but never post here. I have around 250 photos so far. You can go to Facebook and check pics on my page , Louis Jackson ( Orange 55 chevy profile pic ) or 67-72-Chevy C-10 page. do a search for CC/30 and all the build pics should come up. Paint should be finished in about 3 weeks , then the axles will get rebuilt and paint the frame , LS is at the shop now and is getting upgraded internals to handle the F-1 Procharger I have for it. After the chassis is finished and powertrain is in it we will set the body back on the frame. We added 52 1/2 inches to it

lousblown55chevy · 01-24-2018, 10:24 PM

okay , now have about 250 pics on my home computer , here are a couple of where it is now

lousblown55chevy · 01-24-2018, 10:27 PM

No idea why the pics are upside down , this is why I prefer posting to Facebook

**Getter-Done** · 01-25-2018, 02:56 PM

Subbed.
That bed looks good.

SS Tim · 01-26-2018, 12:00 AM

Thanks for the pictures! Looking great for sure!

lousblown55chevy · 01-30-2018, 09:49 PM

I like your work on the floor pans. Looks like a good plan.
That is an awesome looking truck your building.
What kind of seat will you use at the back of the cab?

**Dieselwrencher** · 01-31-2018, 10:00 PM

Very nice! I love the air brushed mouldings!
