I'm ready to see how this rig turned out. I wish I could have bought this thing to finish!

Re: 1977 Chevy K30 Crew Cab Build

I'm sure it's a dead post for sure, but I went through this whole post, and still have not seen the finished truck. Any way to post some pics?????

Re: 1977 Chevy K30 Crew Cab Build

$130k. Yikes. I guess when a shop does most of the work, take the hours and multiply by $125... Six liter stroker too.

Re: 1977 Chevy K30 Crew Cab Build

Figure $10k for the motor alone at least.

Re: 1977 Chevy K30 Crew Cab Build

I remember following this build way back when. It's nice, but for 52k they need to finish getting the A/C working.

Re: 1977 Chevy K30 Crew Cab Build

Among other things, for 52K you get a used/faded nasty fuel tank selector switch, 3rd grade designed "switch" plate mount and orange peel dash paint. And yeah-no functioning AC either? wtf!

Asking for & actually getting are 2 different things on C-List

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: 1977 Chevy K30 Crew Cab Build

Im not knocking the build itself-but for that kind of $$$ some things just shouldnt be an issue. Ive built cars for guys in my shop years back-and yep labor is not cheap (even moreso if you posses unique talents) but as a builder myself I always gave the customer a lot of extra "candy" just to put the build a little over the top-after all people will ask the customer at some point "hey-who built that anyway?".

Re: 1977 Chevy K30 Crew Cab Build

Thanks! I wonder if the truck is at all in line with the original builders end goals?

Re: 1977 Chevy K30 Crew Cab Build

I know this is an old thread but I stumbled upon it looking for ideas for a headache rack on my 79 crew cab.

And now I want to throw up after reading it.

That truck was killer. The original dude that started the build was kind of a tool but to let the truck go after all that and have it end up painted burnt orange on 24s is awful.
