Man, that's really nice. Always liked these trucks in white. Where did you get the tires? Want some for my truck.

Re: Finished my '60 C10 restoration!!

Thanks. That is the original stock color from the factory. The dealership repainted it Brigade Blue and that's how it was it's whole life, but I wanted it factory original, as indicated on the I.D. plate.

Those are the original split rims and required tubes so I took it to a truck tire place, www.robertstire.com They had tires for all sorts of industrial applications and were not afraid to put tires on these rims!

Re: Finished my '60 C10 restoration!!

Thanks! I got the rear window seal from Brothers Trucks:

https://www.brotherstrucks.com/Rear-...products/1703/

They have them for big and small windows, with or without chrome bead.

Steele Rubber Products has them also.

I have never been able to see your pics since you posted them here. I don't know why as I can see all other pics on this forum.
