First truck was 67 longbed, small rear window, straight 6 with 3 on tree set up same way with 2 in widened gm artillery wheels and 38s. What a beast, man i miss it! Put three three wheelers in back and did the coal hills in central pa. What great times. Bought it for 100$, sold it two years later for 100$. Great video, thanks!

Had mine painted 30 years ago, been parked ever since, too nice to drive, pretty much a useless truck now, back then patina hadn't been discovered yet, saddest part is it really didn't need paint, coulda just been buffed out, wish I could have a do over.

Howdy what year was the square body front suspension from? Also where did you get the new parts from. I have 68 C10 that I’d like to get updated brakes and suspension. Thank you.

I don't actually know the year of the donor truck, I just bought it off a guy with a 67-72 who planned the same mods but ended up going a different route. I think pretty much all squarebody stuff will work in one way or another. Good luck with your truck!

This is a very well done video and makes me want to tackle this ride more than ever! Is it mostly gravel road other than where it got a bit muddy/wet further north? Any tips? Could it be easily done on a BMW f800gs or better on a dual sport dirt bike ?

Good times for sure. I had the Shinko 705's (so did my buddy on the nc700) and they did really well. I'd prefer something more aggressive for a BDR like the Motoz tractionator adventure or the new Tusk 2Track, but I had to compromise for a lot of road miles when I put those Shinkos on
