  • Bull's 69 C-10 Build

    Bull has been working on his 69 Chevy C-10. Here are some build photos.






























    DTB says i need to send some updates to BS on my '69 pickup resto/mod.
    engine is 90% completed maybe to engine dyno next week. i'm running a reverse coolant flow and i had to fab some aluminum coolant manifolds ...
    frame is a rolling chassis now and in about a month i'll be taking the rolling frame with motor in it to DTB hes going to make the fuel and brake lines

        nice,,, can't tell from the picks but I think that track bar and the back cover to the 9" will meet..
        does it clear.? if not they make a bar with more of a z to it.
        also can't tell from the pic's but if those shocks are monroe(or knock offs) toss them in the trash bin..
        I have a set thats on my truck and they are garbage on a truck that never be loaded in the bed with any real weight
        if he's gonna run them the 67-68 lower shock mount is 100% stronger and would be better with a spring/shock combo.

              stitch why do you have to be so critical of others? i didnt know everything had to be "cleared" through you on anything i do! the track bar mount is custom! i am a fabricator . the shocks are none of your worries ,right? you wont be riding in the truck nor will you be driving it so i could go a lifetime without your 2 cents and negativity all over the place.... you must be one miserable dude i'm glad i'm not you! out......

                Very kool I love this body truck and glade somemore people are seeing how easy it is to put big tires under them with out cutting . as for the shock mount looks just like mine on my 67?Track bar looks good I have a double adjustable one on mine since I put it in the weeds and a big aluminum rearend cover on it and lots of room I do not see how this setup with a 9 inch would hit as my setup is bigger then a 9? I would not worry about it looks good to me (not that that matters) what ya running for a mill?

                              Thanks for updating everyone Bull. This thing is going to be a handful to drive, Oh yeah, can't wait ! Looking forward to it being dropped off in Sopchoppy for plumbing !

                              As far as the Tour next June, my guess is Bull and my part will be done, but it has to go to the body shop and old vehicles have been know to get lost in those places. Maybe in 2013.

                              Thanks Phil, Rett found me.
