Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Voted!!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Me too! I might be biased, but we all know where my vote went!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

That's the republican'ts :lol:

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Glad you found the source of the FI issue. That was not an EZ one to diagnose I'm sure ...

As for the tranny ... minor details. I'm sure that'll be out & back in before you can say ... Cecil.

Truck looks fantastic. The build was well thought out & the execution was ... stunning. Drive the wheels off it.

Thanks all for the votes!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

I put together a complete 5 min video of the entire build thread. Cecil will go to a few shows in the future so my thoughts were to just loop this video instead of having scrap book. Here the youtube link, let me know what you think.

Sweet video Shawn! Mind if I post a link on my FB business page? I see Cecil is doing well on the voting front!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Cool video Shawn, nice job Chris...Jim

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Cool vid! what program did you use if I may ask?

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Great video, well done!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

I used iMovie on my iPhone 6 plus to edit the whole thing. Pretty simple.

Thanks AD!


Thanks Old Man!

Chris I will send you a link to the Video without the soundtrack, FaceBook sent me a nasty gram and pulled it of my page because of the soundtrack and copyright issues!



Thanks Ratty!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Too Cool! Loved the sound at the end.

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Quick update: Tranny is shot, so new rebuilt one going in this week. Hopefully this will be the last surprise and then he can come home to Oklahoma.

I want to thank everyone who has voted for Cecil in the April Truck of the Month contest. Currently we are leading with 44% of the votes with 2 day left.

Cecil is getting a new "premium gold" 700r transmission this weekend!!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Saw that on FB. Where does the tranny come from?

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Hope the color is not reflective of the price. :D

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Built in Springfield MO on contract for the local Oreillys. 3yr unlimited mileage warranty, bout half the cost of most shops rebuild price.

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Sarge, they are going to call you scrounger next, you find all the good deals.

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Lol... I try. Good deals keep more duckets in my customers pocket (for the next project) :)

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Thanks Skymangs. Sounds like a good deal.

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Yep, already planning the next one. What you say Chris ready to venture in the C10 realm? Thinking Bagged, LT1 sleeper!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

LT1???? can we please move into this century? Let me drop an LS in her!!!!@ LoL.

Ready willing and able Shawn.

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Figured the LT1 comment would get a rise out of you. :lol:

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Worked... LMAO. Might as well put some Flintstone wheels on it too if you want to go chromagnan tech!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Guys,

How about the new LT1 in the Stingray? Here it is in crate engine form.

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

That isn't the LT1 Shawn was referring to, I'm sure!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
 

Daddy Likes! :metal:

Chris just need you to do some of your magic and find that engine and tranny and wiring harness for $2k:haha:
