Nice truck!
 

Hey Bill, how come every picture that shows work being done, shows your dad doing all of the work?

Jeff Karns :)

hey jeff ,im still being schooled. few update pics,working on front spoiler.

Bill, you are the mofo man...this truck is sick!!! Have you decided on a color yet??

Looking good. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

that is a bad ass truck already.....can't wait to see the finished product:thumbsup: .

I want this truck! I love the 'V and I love the old C10... and you are doing one heck of a job on the execution!

thanks guys. the truck is going to be red w carbon fiber accents (i think) . still working on the front end, i think im going to have to start over on my front spoiler it kinda looks like it has a boner.(i didnt notice untill i was viewing my pics) oh well its just metal,ill be all over it in the morning. thanks again bill

Killer JOB man it look great in steel are you going to build a new grill for it? You have change every thing after all?:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Bill, you didn't tell me you were a perfectionist. Because I don't see nothing wrong with that spoiler. It's as flawless as the rest of the truck.

few progress pics,fog lamps. im not sure what im gonna do w the grille yet, i hate to change it to much its my fav part of a 68, thanks for checking in bill

Bill, you are making major moves with this truck. And in a timely manner. How much more time before you think it's finished?

NO HURRY, JUST SO ITS DONE FOR NEXT YEARS FUN SEASON.

Yeah, I hear you. I wanted my Chevelle redone by this summer. But, things come up you know. So, I'll just have it ready by late spring right when it starts to warm back up just before next summer.

All these pics of fog lamps and you didn't even mention the chin spoiler...?

few progress pics. i added some brake vents and leveled out the front spoiler , if you look at the prior pics, the horizon between the driving lamps was running in an upward v, now its strait, i like it much better. thanks bill

Very nice work Bill. I love these trucks, obviously! Especially another one from PA. Keep up the great work! :thumbsup:

few update pics.(rocker trims w brake duct in rear)

I'm sorry if I missed it Bill, but what size wheels and tires are you running? Very nice work. :thumbsup:

Pay attention Chad!..... He is a busy man.......

I love the detail of this truck!!!!! Very innovative.

THE WHEELS ARE 20s THE WHOLE WAY AROUND.20X11 REAR 20X8.5,305/40 REAR,285/40 FRONT. THANKS BILL

:( It won't happen again! You aren't kidding, I'm tired just looking at the pictures! East Coast, hold'n our own! Well Bill is and I'm trying!

Bill you may have just have single handedly started a new trend with this truck!!

Without a doubt one of the sickest trucks I've seen in a long if not the sickest I've ever seen.

No doubt. I think when I start on my truck I'm going to name the thread, "Bill's My Daddy & I'm A C10V Wannabe." LOL!!:hail:

thanks guys, your making me blush. still finishing the rockers, im almost done fabricating . all i have left is the grille & the under hood goodies ,cant wait to start the body work & plumbing . thanks for the complements. bill

Just curious;

Do you do all the metal finishing during fab, or do you leave the panel "rough" and come back to do the finish work later?

Just wondering if we have an extra month of metal tweeking to look forward to.

yeah id say at least 2 weeks of grinding & tweaking before the mud flys. my problem is i keep making big changes,look at these pics. when i thought i was almost done with the rocker treatments, i stood back and looked at the scrub line of the truck and the front lip was 2 in higher than the rockers. i cut across the front and added 2 1/4 to it,then the front looked to tall so i came up with this little bumper.(but it looks real cool & im finally happy w/ the front) thanks bill

Makes me want to buy a welder and the 67 that's out in the parking lot!!

AMAZING work and fab skills Bill!!! :thumbsup: Diggin' the new front bumper treatment!

Very cool build!! Subscribed!!

very cool ideas going on there

Pics, pics, pics!!!.......... We need an update Bill. What's the next stage??:brix:

ill put some pics up this weekend,i took a little time off(i was getting burnt out) my only progress has been doing a little body work ont the front clip and doors. all those peices will be in 2k this weekend. all those weld joints were starting to keep me up at night so i decided to switch from fab guy to body guy for a bit. thanks for checking in bill

It's exciting to me Bill. I enjoy watching every step of this build, no matter what it is. Keep them coming. Maaan, that front skirt looks good on the grill.:woot:
