Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Here is what I can tell you about my next build. It will be the most insane c10 ever built. I am going to build it with Pasqual Marquez. He is the owner of Marquez design and fabrication. Now the insane part is just my opinion. It will be ls powered 6 speed 345 rear tire 335 front tire. Trans axle truck. But that's not the insane part. Lol it's the body but that's about all I can tell you guys. Need to wait for the project to get off the ground.

Eric,

that sounds insane! But you must have gotten into my head. When I told you I had an idea for a c10 myself, that is pretty much it. LS9, 6 speed manual, transaxle, IFS and IRS, adjustable coil over suspension not to mention the carbon ceramic brakes from a ZR1 Corvette and maybe some carbonfiber on the body... (not to mention some other crazy ideas that are going through my head)

How come we pretty much have the exact same idea? But since you´re going to build it way before me, I´m curious on how your vision of "the same idea" will look when done.

Can´t wait!

Ralf

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Please dont go crazy with body mods. Your builds are enjoyed so much because of the amazing level of detail on a relatively stock body. Dont change that concept and try to one up yourself.

This is an awesome truck, but I feel the majority would take your build over this any day.

I have a feeling he will stick with the stock body lines....GM got it right the first time IMHO. Looking forward to a new build thread

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

No crazy body mods here I will let you know I will only be doing two mods. One is moving rear bed bodyline up and I will stretch the cab three inches. Other then that the truck will remain stock. It the materials we will be using that will make people flip.

Thank you. I don't want to try to top Tootsie. I really want an all out autocross truck. with a meaty tire and light wheels and body

No it wont. The body is already stretched and bed will be next for the body line. Not sure when we are going to go full blast into this project. But it will be most likely in the next yr. Need to get Tootsie out and on the show circuit first.

I.m in the middle of moving my body line up I think it gives a better flow to the truck you can move it up 2 1/4 inch and with moldings they then can run straight down the bed side it also allows you to move the tail lights up so you can move the rear bumper up to better fit the bed better the front bumper is one inch higher than the body line or molding and the rear is two inches lower so it allows them to flow better from a side view and fit the bottom of the quarter panel better its some work to do just about done with the tail gate but its worth all the work it looks like chevy could have done it..

We are going to stretch the cab for ergonomics and comfort
