i respect the effort... and the fundage... but not so much on the final product.

tcb-1 · 06-27-2009, 07:05 PM

uh, well, ummmm, *scratching head*

You call it exotic, I call it not for me.

sleepertruck72 · 06-27-2009, 08:26 PM

I like the lowered look but the lambo doors should be left on lambos. Other than those doors and tailgate thingamabob, thats a truck I would drive

The work, the money spent but,,,,

longhorn too isnt it?

Longhorn Man · 06-27-2009, 10:49 PM

looks like an 8 foot bed to me. I don't see a line, and the stake pocket looks to be in the forward position

STOCKISH · 06-27-2009, 11:30 PM

Not a Longhorn, but a great way to ruin a good truck.

Yeah, I agree. That guy has too much time on his hands. He should have swung by my place and done a frame up resto on my truck instead!

long69 · 06-28-2009, 02:22 AM

i would say its ok, but it looks to me it would be harder to get in and out than with regular doors. so to thumbs down.

**special-K** · 06-28-2009, 06:02 AM

Thanks for posting.Even though is has geeoteen (yeah right,can`t spell) doors and tailgate,it shows you can do a C/20 like a C/10 w/o undoing what it was born as.

Now,I`d like to see him slide that bicycle out under the tailgate.

if I had a lambo I`d trick it out with doors that hinged in the front and swung out like a Studebaker.

Whats the difference between the C10/20. As far as I know, its different rear springs and different cab mounts. I am currently moving a 1972 1/2 ton to a 1969 3/4 and the only differences I have noticed are... the 3/4 frame is thicker (or maybe the 1/2 frame is thinned from rust. The holes in the frame are the reason I am moving it.) The rear springs on the 1/2 T are lighter. The rear cross member on the 1/2 is thinner, the cab mounts are different (3/4 T are lower on the frame.) and the 3/4 has huge overload springs.

Is there anything else I should know about?

Too funny! I love your take on things!

**chev-obsession** · 06-28-2009, 04:12 PM

yeah, im not a huge fan of the truck. but when i saw it, i thought that you guys would want to see it so i took some pics.

**special-K** · 06-28-2009, 09:25 PM

I appreciate it.Sorry you got all the negative responses.It happens sometimes and I know it must not feel good to you.It is unique to see a C/20 bagged with body mods.

BigCarl,I`m referring to how guys ditch the 3/4t knuckles and rear (8-lug) for a 12-bolt and 1/2t knuckles(5-lug).

bigbadchev72 · 06-28-2009, 09:32 PM

He must live in Pasco

laplander · 06-28-2009, 09:39 PM

I think I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.....

ed2552 · 06-28-2009, 09:48 PM

I officially have a new direction for the C/20......NOT!!

I like the bags and the paint, but not so hot on anything else.

bad6772 · 06-28-2009, 09:50 PM

other than the doors I dig it....

cstm68 · 06-28-2009, 09:58 PM

i like it alot!!
im planing on doing a hinge on the side of my tailgate so it opens more like a door and also suicide doors on my
68,
so i guess me and that guy have similar taste.

purewhitemp5 · 06-28-2009, 10:14 PM

To me it looks like he put a lambo hinge on the tail gate too. Just dont like lambo doors on anything (especially a pickup) but a lambo.
