Copperhead

GM had Copperhead on display at the SEMA show. It looks real good but sits to high for me.

You mean it's actually finished? I HATE how shows get you so involved in an ongoing project and then don't show you the finished project, then move onto another project. I couldn't care less about the Sargeant Rock project without seeing Copperhead done. I want to hear that 572 roar! Horespower's Nova is another good example. Let's see a full pass on it!

I don't understand why they do this. People who have never even watched the show saw it before we did. All those Saturdays and Sundays afternoons spent waiting for them to finish, almost wasted. They should at least post a mp3 or wav of that 572. Maybe even a MPEG movie of it on a back road.

"Another highlight of the GM Service and Parts Operations presence at SEMA will be a 1967 Chevy C10 short bed fleetside pickup with the GM Performance Parts 620-horsepower, 572-cubic-inch crate engine (ZZ572) and packed with performance and appearance components. Stacey David, producer/host of Trucks! TV on the Spike TV cable network, designed and built the truck and named it "Copperhead" because of its quick-strike capabilities."

I can't tell from the pics but it doesn't look like it has that fancy nitrous intake on it that they were making a big deal about.

I thought it had big funky ugly roundish squarish exhaust tips coming out of the front lower part of the bed with some hideous thick steel plate around them? I watched like one episode, and after I saw Stacey make those and cut a huge hole in the brand new bedpanels, I wasn't too impressed. That and the constant giggling almost made me scream at the TV so I never watched it again.
The guy that did the paint did a nice job though.

That goober looks like Big Daddy Don Garlits. By the way, I think that air cleaner sucks. Didn't Stacy shave the door handles? What they just reappear? A waste...
