Just picked up something new to play with. Where is the best place to pick up parts for the C30's or 85 chevy crew cab dually, and is there anyone that would recommend someone on here that would do a good job on stretching the fenders I am not a fiberglass kind of person. This will be a new learning curve I am sure, but fun I have always loved these trucks.

a C&C rear end is a rear from a cab and chassis truck..they are shorter than a stock dually rear end so you dont have to widen the fenders...

yeah its a truck that come with no bed and is usually equipped with a flatbed or something along those lines...im using a single rear wheel rearend out of a 95 model 3/4 ton on my truck but im running 22s so my wheels clear the brakes but a regular 16 inch dually inner will not clear the brake drums on a SRW rear end
