Show Dump
Well I don’t think I ever posted pics of my dump truck restoration.
Backstory on this truck: It started life as a 1979 c30 flatbed. In 1991 my dad bought it for $150 and turned it into a dump truck. Nothing special 350/ sm465. We used the truck as a dump truck for years and in 2016 it was decision time. Either bury the truck or put some money into it. Well we went a lil overboard. Everything was sandblasted, new parts where needed. Truck now sports a built 454 with Holley fuel injection, an NV4500, vintage air, pa, pl completely restored interior. Truck is no longer used for “dump truck duties” but is a garage queen now. |

Re: Show Dump
If you're taking it around to shows, might as well complete the ensemble. Add a pintle hitch trailer and a Deere 1010 dozer to the mix.
