Pro Street C-10 is ROLLING!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BOOB · 02-04-2009, 07:36 PM

FINALLY!!! The chassis is 100% finished, and done right. Of course the front will come down significantly. Kind of a crappy pic.

thirdstreettito · 02-04-2009, 07:43 PM

Looks good!

bigguy69 · 02-04-2009, 08:05 PM

i like it . what areyour plans for motor

BOOB · 02-04-2009, 08:18 PM

It's built to race with intentions to be a daily. I'll be using the 327 out of my Vette while I build my big block. I know the 327 is small but dont let it fool you, it was aproaching 450 at the wheels before I tore the car apart... and it'll turn almost 8,500 RPM!!! I'm piecing together a simple, reliable yet STOUT 454. Stock heads and bottom with a simple 4-71 blower and it should be tons of reliable fun.

yellowGT · 02-04-2009, 09:13 PM

BOOB, How did you do your rearend? My brother is going with a 20x14 wheel on the back. Wheels have a 4.5" of backspace so he will have to narrow the rearend and tub the bed out. Is this what you did? What rearend are you using? Back-halfed?

dirtdobber · 02-04-2009, 09:25 PM

that looks really good I would like to something like that to mine one day nice truck

C20-67_N_MO · 02-04-2009, 09:25 PM

Looking good!

Keep us updated!

BOOB · 02-04-2009, 09:50 PM

Complete back half, narrowed custom 2x4 rails to 27" outside to outside. I narrowed the 9 inch myself...4 link and wishbone.

nuke1 · 02-04-2009, 09:53 PM

that looks great, more pics though, PLEASE

big_al_71 · 02-04-2009, 10:13 PM

looks good but I would like to see the rear set up..

**lolife99** · 02-04-2009, 11:09 PM

Stick a Dropmember up front and the chassis will be done!

custom72c20 · 02-05-2009, 01:14 AM

More pics soon.

I've seen those the board a few times. I'm considering it. Does the dropmember actually lower the front end a little on its own or is it strictly for added clearance? I really dont want to run a bag setup.

72BlckButy · 02-05-2009, 07:34 AM

Lookin' good!

*project 67 sub* · 02-05-2009, 02:47 PM

im sure porterbuilt can build you one to run with springs or coilovers instead of bags

BOOB · 10-13-2009, 11:37 PM

Old thread but I decided to go with a dropmember! Im talking to Nate right now about the details. You cant tell me that dropping the front end just below the current rear for a SLIGHT rake wouldn't be SICK! AHHHHH!!!! I can't wait! I've been woring on an '52 panel for a guy ever since I posted this thread and just finished it last night. So now I've got a fistfull of cash and plenty of time!!!

*vegaschevy* · 10-14-2009, 12:06 AM

looks *****in. cant wait to see it done

nastyc10 · 10-14-2009, 12:08 AM

Sweet ride! I'm not to far from you. You will love the dropmember. I have one on my 70' with a slight rake and I think its killer!

BOOB · 10-24-2009, 01:06 AM

I haven't made progress 'cause I was working on this.....

Greenleaf auto recyclers in Seguin. I believe they're nationwide. I work at a body shop so I got the wholesale hookup!

BOOB · 01-25-2010, 10:49 PM

Don't knock the temporary air lines or ugly control arms. It's not done yet. Thank GOD for Nate. We're homies now. We go way back. Gangmembers.

BOOB · 11-06-2009, 12:28 PM

I'm sure the 454 i'm building will work fine in something else

prostreetC-10 · 11-06-2009, 12:38 PM

LOL I had to look twice. I thought someone was telling me that my truck was rolling into the street or something. Congrats fellow tubber!!!
