Re: This is awesome ZL1 c10 scottiedtv
I like it a bit more than this guy, but not a fan of some aspects. The first thing that comes to mind when I see this, somebody tried to do a C10 in the Ring Brothers style. The Ring Brothers might have been able to do it better, but I'm over their style. Still a nice truck and built well, I'd rather it be more C10R though.

Great looking truck. I especially like the color. No engine picture?

Re: This is awesome ZL1 c10 scottiedtv
I saw this truck in person at Good Guys Southeastern Nationals in Charlotte last weekend. While the colors aren't my favorite, this truck was stunning. There were so many custom touches and tweaks that there's no way you could make a list of everything they changed. The craftsmanship was unreal and the fit and finish was perfect.
I spoke with the builder, who was a super nice guy. He took a fair amount of time answering questions from a number of us all at the same time. He was obviously proud of the truck, but not arrogant at all. I've had builders/owners of higher end stuff turn their noses up to me, flat out lie or not know what they were talking about when trying to ask about their cars, so it was great for the builder to take the time to talk with fans. I'm sure he answered the same 25 questions all weekend long, but he didn't seem to mind. Again, I was not a fan of the exterior colors, and I'm not crazy about red interiors, but this was by far, my favorite truck at Good Guys last weekend.

Re: This is awesome ZL1 c10 scottiedtv
What impressed me the most where the perfect gaps and clean lines. The glovebox extension was different and flowed nicely. I want a red interior soi was a fan of that. Probably would have choosen another exterior. Can't complain about the ZL1 tho. The video above tells the whole story.

Re: This is awesome ZL1 c10 scottiedtv
All it takes is imagination, talent and a whole lot of cash to pull one off like this. It appears to be very well done. Touches like the flush fit windshield and door mirrors are slick. I could see it in a brighter color though.

Re: This is awesome ZL1 c10 scottiedtv
I really dig the flush glass! That is one cool truck in my opinion. The man who did the work has some great talent and the person who owns the truck has one super truck. If they be the same person then my hats off to him. Great job sir on this one.

Re: This is awesome ZL1 c10 scottiedtv
I very much appreciate this truck. However, I never understood the appeal of a super clean engine bay. I love to see mechanicals, so looking at this engine bay completely bores me.

I must be getting old. I like a stock or mild resto mod better. Looks like quality work though.
