Goodguys 2015 Giveaway C10 by Scott's Hotrods

[tech@scottshotrods]

Scott's Hotrods is pleased to announce the official build thread for the Goodguys 2015 giveaway C-10.

We have had a great relationship with Goodguys over the last 15 years. We have had the opportunity to build a handfull of giveaway cars in the past, but unfortunately the timing was never quite right to do one for Goodguys. I'm very excited that we are doing this one. Great truck, and great timing.

We are determined to make this the best C-10 we've built to date.

Goodguys has already done a lot of the hard work in determining the look, having the rendering done, and aquiring a lot of the hard parts. Our job will be to execute the plan and rebuild this truck form top to bottom. There is not a piece or panel on this truck that will go untouched.

Here's a few pics to start.

We started on the tear down and quickly realized that this cab was in fairly poor shape. Lots of hidden rust that needed to be addressed before we could get started. Rather than have it dipped (we've had bad luck with that) we sent it out to be media blasted. Our shop lead Brycen has taken the reigns on this project.
