Default Yes... it's a truck!

Well, I figured since things were starting to come together on the truck I would post up an intro. It's a 69 C-10 with a pro-touring vibe. I will update the progress in the "project updates" forum once things start progressing more. We had Carter Hickman Designs do the rendering for us (we are fortunate enough to work with Carter frequently).

Plans for the build include a Dropmember C4 (it's a bolt-in crossmember that allows you to use C4 components on the C-10 chassis), a C4 back-half, air ride at all 4, LS1, six-speed, and some minor smoothing and body mods.

I do build them for sale... I have a couple different variations. I was hoping to sign up as a "vendor" before I discussed my products too much and violated any rules. I looked for a link but couldn't find one. Sent off an e-mail to somebody.

The truck is sinister, we need more pics. The crossmember looks fantastic. Almost look machine welded.

Porterbuilt is on another board I am on and his dropmember front K member for trucks is very popular. This one looks more like my style and should be sick!
