Very cool build man. Always see those C5/C6 rolling chassis on eBay and fantasize about doing this. Very curious what needs to be done with the torque tube as I have no idea what it even looks like in there.

Drifters 01-08-2017 12:26 PM

Re: 68c10/c6
 
The build is definitely an undertaking! The C6 wheelbase is 106 inches and of course short bed ( C10 ) is 115 what I did was Lengthen the torque tube 9 inches as well as the driveshaft inside of the torque tube, I also increased the diameter of the driveline to 3 inches due to the increased length!

Those renderings look pretty sweet! I really like the way the black accents and doesn't overpower the red. I also never caught the rear end before and looks like you are going to lean the top of the tailgate forward a bit. Interesting!
