FARM TRUCK 2.0

LAST TIME we featured a truck belonging to Brook All maras it was a ‘68 C-10 he had recently finished in his own garage. The truck’s photo shoot ran in our sister publication, C/10 Builder’s Guide. Brook called the truck done, but there were still a few things on his list that he hadn’t finished. Luckily, someone made an offer on the truck, and he sold it in order to finance an improved version.

After stockpiling some dough in his bank account, Brook devised a game plan for the truck of his dreams. Right now, all you really need is a cab to get the job done, since it’s the one piece that aftermarket companies don’t offer for sale. Brook got lucky and found a decent cab and a frame in a package deal for $800. From there, he pieced together the majority of the body panels by searching Craigslist ads. He was able to source most of the original sheet metal, and the only parts that weren’t made decades before are those from Dynacorn that make up the bed.
