Some C-10’s out there


Here are some pics of some c-10’s that show how some people are doing restores and resto-mods.

Pretty much stock 1970 c-10

This one is pretty much a stock look. Has the same trim on the sides that mine has. But has the area between the trim painted white. This was an original option.

Resto-Mod

Looks to be a ’67 or ’68 resto-mod. But a lot of people like to put a ’68 grille on the ’69 to ’72 trucks. I think I am going to keep the ’69 grille, but I could go to this look.  Has new wheels and is lowered, but not slammed to the ground. This truck either did not have the side trim or the owner decided he did not want it. It does give a sleeker look, but right now I think I will be keeping the side trim on mine. I just don’t know if I want the white in the middle or all the same color or maybe white on the bottom.

Resto-Mod short bed

This one is a short-bed looks to be a ’69, but you get the idea when the white is on the bottom. This person left the lower portion of the side trim….but deleted the top. Kinda like this look….but I want to retain all my trim. But, this may be a way to get the more modern sleeker look and retain some of the original trim.

Of course painting is years down the road yet.

    I will be posting more pictures of what other people have done. Gives me ideas that I usually put my own spin on. I saw a TV show where they burned a logo into the wooden bed. I think I will do that with either “Spanish Bit Ranch” or “Cumberland Valley Farm”. I will post pictures of wooden beds so you get the idea of how that looks.
