She's lookin' great Bugz! I wouldn't say it's a 20 footer unless you're referring to the black marks you leave behind you just before you catch 2nd gear..lol.

Still loving the stance of your truck, color, rims...etc. If I weren't neck deep working on mine now, your truck is one of those that would inspire me to get back on it. :metal:

I was flippin' through some pics tonight and saw this truck. Can anyone tell me or at least ball park the size tires that's on this truck? I thought at first they may be a 275/60, but they look wider and lower profile than the 275.

I'm guessing around a 295/50??

Here is my 68 fresh off a wash after a big memorial beach weekend! The ece 4/6 drop rode great on the highway even with 300+ pounds of band equipment. Still trying to work through a few vintage air a/c issues but survived the Florida heat.

I've been working through a couple of ac problems with the installer. One is a noisy compressor which was replaced with a 7 piston unit that helped a small amount. The other issue is a freeze up after 30 minutes on the highway. Vintage air seemed to already be aware of the noise issue and replaced the 5 piston unit. Not really sure how an ls swap motor makes any difference but there is a definite resonance around 1600 (right at highway cruise speed)rpm that honks loudly in the interior after a few minutes. VA is now going to replace the expansion valve and condenser next.. From the reviews I have read the sure fit kit seemed to be a no brainer for our c10 but this has certainly not been my experience so far.

We had beverages in the fridge, a HUGE plate of fried chicken my wife had made and we jammed on Led Zepplin the Entire night as we worked on my truck until approx. 3:00am Sunday morning.

It was, without a doubt, the greatest time I've had (working on a vehicle) in years!!


Sorry guys, I just keep going back to this a few pages back! :metal:

I don't know how I took so long to find this thread.
This isn't the truck I wanted when I bought it, but it grew on me. wouldn't trade it for anything now.

Ill be posting pictures of my new 1970 short step I bought from the first owner. He bought the truck from the dealership he worked at and I bought it from him. I wish I had pictures of the title. It is awesome. Unfortunately the cab is rusted out completely but the bed and front clip are super nice.

What are you thinking by not driving it in a year... I'd drive that to the mailbox everyday.
