This has been a Five-year Project to build great looking hot rod truck. Like many projects this started as a late night eBay purchase. After getting the truck and driving it for a few weeks, I decided I did not want a stock C10, but a truck with modern running gear and air conditioning. But most importantly it had to have lots of chassis, suspension, and brake upgrades. I wanted a truck that was a bit of a sleeper in appearance, but with some tasteful upgrades. I sent the truck to a performance shop that specializes in trucks and street rods. It was stripped to bare frame to inspect and start with a clean slate. After pouring over lots of catalogs and Googling C10 sites, I developed a plan for the truck and started ordering parts. I got a set of custom drop spindles and lower control arms, and a new sway bar. I got an Early Classic Center Drop Center that lowered the cross member and stiffens the frame. In the Rear Porter Built Frame C Notch, Rear Panard. I wanted to keep the traditional suspension set up compared to airbags so that it would have more of a authentic look to it. Everything is Powder Coated and Done By Professionals so it is done right and should last forever. I even had the truck's arms machined so the e-brake cable would run through it and not hang below the chassis. The other detail I wanted was the Side Exit Exhaust. I had the exhaust routed so that it went down the inside of the frame and out the side of the bed. The exhaust outlets are all-stainless and look really cool. It has a 12 bolt Posi Rear End that was Rebuilt and Fully Setup. A Brand new Driveline was Custom Built for the truck as well. It has 4 Wheel Disc Brakes with Power Assist that are All New Including all new lines. Now for the best part! I sourced a 2000 Corvette LS1 V8 Motor Complete. I had it mated to a Fully Rebuilt 460LE Automatic Transmission. A custom wire harness was built for it so that I could route the ECU and other electronics up inside the cab and look very clean. A Custom Alloy Radiator and Fan Setup Was Built for it, So there is Zero Cooling Issues. I bought a Vintage AC System and Had it adapted to the Corvette AC Compressor, Along with custom lines and AC condenser. It Runs Really Strong and Smooth With No Issues. The body was in really good shape when I got it, with pretty fresh paint. Only an little touch up has been done to it from when I got the truck. I Replaced almost every piece of Chrome trim, bumpers, emblems, and The grill in the truck. I was lucky enough to find a original set of American Racing Wheels for it to complete the vintage look. This Truck has a Great Sound, but not too loud. The Ride Quality Is Great, No Harshness. The brakes are as good as any modern truck really. Everything was done top notch on this build, and With well designed parts. I also Replaced the door gaskets, window felts, carpet and had the Seat Recovered. The windshield and gasket is new. The doors open and close easy and are tight. I Relocated the Fuel Tank to the Rear Frame Rail with a hidden fuel fill inthe bed. I just put in a Kenwood CD Player and New Speakers. This Truck is the Right One for someone that wants Vintage but Modern performance.
