Re: Roadster Shop / Craftsman C-10 Muscle Truck Build
Look at the last two pages before this one on the last guy making a point about something not being correct on this build. Not trying to be a wise guy, it just amazes me that one of the best shops in the country is building HOT ROD to GIVE AWAY and this is the second time someone has critique'd the truck about correctness. Who cares if its not correct, enjoy viewing one of the finest C-10's being built in the country.

I think the black bezels look better. The factory got that right IMHO. Hell, this shop went with a '69 grille on a '69 truck on a frame off build. They could have just as easily gone with a 67/68 or 71/72 grille, but they didn't. Seems like using the correct black bezels would be in order too, but whatever. Just wanted to make sure they were aware, because if a shop guy with a list of parts to order just went down the list and started ordering stuff, they may not even beware of the difference due to many of the parts vendors combining parts. |

Re: Roadster Shop / Craftsman C-10 Muscle Truck Build
This is a cool build. With the design and direction of this build, I was a little surprised you didn't go with the one-piece door glass conversion.
My one piece of criticism? Not enough video. Not just longer segments, but unedited pieces of certain work being done. But I'm a video guy, so don't take it as a complaint. I can sit and watch builds being done all day, unfortunately, most are too edited to really get a feel for what's being done, or the video's such bad quality you'd think it was a BETA tape from 1987. This thing will be awesome once complete. Can't wait to see it. |

Re: Roadster Shop / Craftsman C-10 Muscle Truck Build
Awesome build! I just can't believe you ruined it by using that non standard frame and motor..............
With the flat firewall how much did the motor have to get moved forward and how will that affect the weight bias?
