Recently, he was looking for a clean starter truck that would make a perfect canvas to make a truly unique custom classic pickup. After attending several local car/truck shows, Henry liked the looks of the ’67-’72 C10 body styles. This began to turn the gears in Henry’s head. He made a deal on a ’72 C10, and his newly found truck was on its way home to Newcastle, Oklahoma. With the truck tucked safely in his garage, Henry began planning his vision for the build.
