Here's the front half in my truck. I'm parked beside the C8 I'm going to restore. That's my M2 Cletrac next to it. I have to fire the Cletrac up tomorrow to get it ready for the Canada Remembers Air Show in Saskatoon on the weekend.
This C8 cab was painted khaki then blue then khaki again so it must have been Air Force. I guess it'll be right at home with the Cletrac. My HUP's Air Force too.
Mike, you say your C8 does 40 mph. Old 40s Chev one tons would make 65 or better. I'm going to check rear end ratios on some of the many old wrecked Chev trucks around here and see if I can come up with a higher speed one that'll fit in the C8 housing.
