Just found this, what craftsmanship, awesome.


Greg

I love that shaved look, and sweet idea with the mirrors. Excelent work.

Thats one SEXY ass truck !

This is one hell of a truck.

Any updates on what you are going to do with the interior?

I love all the details in your build. You have some great metal skills.

Amazing work.

So many great ideas all in one truck.

Can't wait to see it done.

William, I must say your truck is amazing, and so are your fabrication skills.

Man, Bill...brilliant work on this one! I'm new to lat-g, but have been lurking for a while searching for general pickup inspiration, and your C-10 build is a winner. Just spent a couple hours going through this thread, and wanted to say thanks for posting so many photos - I love these builds that you can follow from start to finish (well - almost finished!).

Lookin good Bill, real good!! :thumbsup:

Bill.... this truck is so nice.
I sent you a PM..... check it out :_paranoid

I'm assuming that you use a bead roller to do the "lines" but how do you do the "dots"?

Super Kool Bill! WOW!:cheers:

DAMN! :thumbsup:

Does the air cleaner sit open behind the grill?

Love this truck! So fantastic looking and the metal work is amazing. Two things I would recommend are headers and get rid of the Cadillac emblems. I think a great looking set of headers, either coated or stainless, would blend much better with the custom metal work under the hood. Those manifolds just stick out to me. The Cadillac emblems are a personal peeve of mine. If it's not a Cadillac, why have the emblems? Besides, here too would be a good place to add something custom that would blend in with the surroundings. Maybe a custom C10 badge, or a Bow tie that's machined from solid stock etc. Just my opinion though. Good luck finishing it out.

Bill that looks really, really nice....Love the truck.

I have a nice 67 shortbed for sale...you should come look at it . 2500.00

Sorry haven't checked in in a while. The dots were simple lay the metal over a 1.25 hole in a steel table & hold a large ballpeen hammer centered on the metal the hit the ballpeen hammer with a larger hammer. It takes a couple of wacks but it works nice .

Beautiful truck!

Nice work, good colors and finishes

Looks awesome Bill!
