    We making lots of progress on Matthews 1966c-10 longbed that is being made into a shortbed we have one of the best metal man in the country help us along the way,also good friend of mine. Matts 1966 c-10 will be a shortbed fused to cab of truck, frame also shortened, lowered c-notced, body customizing shaving the door handles,covering the turnsingal lights up on the hood relocating them to front bumper. Motor is being rebuilt now to stock 283 its only going to be bored out to 0.030 as they say,transmission is 350 turbo.WE will try to post some pitchers in a couple of days to show the progress on it.
