Check out this C10!!

Guys, take a look at this C10. This is a thread from another forum I belong to. It is sweet as heck. Tell me what ya'll think. I personally don't know him. Only thru thread talk have I spoken to him. But he has one killer truck.

I tried to look at it, but I think that you have to be a member to look at the pictures. Sounds good though

Re: Check out this C10!!

I've watched it since the beginning. I like some stuff about it but the body mods are not my cup of tea. There's alot going on that seemingly contradicts his opening statement:

Quote:
ive had this 68 short bed chevy for a couple of years and been waiting for the time to do something crazy with. i didnt want to build something to crazy expensive in these uncertian economic times, so i decided to build a drifter/show truck on a lean budget (under 25k ).
I've also seen some of his previous work @ GoodGuys Columbus a year or so ago. Very talented to say the least.

Re: Check out this C10!!

Yeah, I agree with you on the contradictions. IMO there's no way to build that truck the way he has for under $25k. Custom, scratch-built frame, fabbed hood, fabbed cab, fabbed front bumper & spoiler, the list goes on & on. Me, myself, I love the customized stuff though. I'm more of a custom guy anyway. Not to say I don't love the original stuff either. All in all, this truck is so sick to me.

Re: Check out this C10!!

Lastly, here are the pics of his dash. He got it out of a Caddy CTS-V. Hence, the name of his project....C10-V. He also has the LS and 6-speed out of it too.

Oh no!!! Not mine's or my work. Just simply showing off a truck that was in another forum I belong to. And since this site is for trucks just wanted to show others the masterpiece that's all. In no shape, form or fashion am I implying this is my truck or my work everyone.

Re: Check out this C10!!

I always wondered what some ground effects would look like on our trucks. I dig the front end so far. Waiting to see the undercut cab though. Not sure how I feel about that until I see it...

Re: Check out this C10!!

I`m no fan of modifying the sweetest styled modern truck on earth (I guess the secret`s out ).
All that aside...Don`t drifters just get all smashed up?

Re: Check out this C10!!

looks like a stock frame. but why? all that time and effort into the body you would think it would have mandrel bent rails.

not saying the build isn't sick but still just saying

Re: Check out this C10!!

Stock frame; fully boxed, MII front c.member, 4-bar rear, coil-overs. He did indicate he was trying to complete the build for less that 25K in parts which is why they likely opted to re-use the original rails & just upgrade.
