Re: my first c10 custom
Beautiful truck^^^
Dino,... I wish I knew you were going to buy the "big meats" so quickly. I talked to a guy last year that had a 66 Impala with 21.50's on the back. He switched over to the Mickey Thompson Radials and said it was "like driving a new car". He couldn't over emphasize the difference it made. I know they're higher,... but that's what I'd buy if I was gonna drive it. You may have plans to just "set them up in smoke" all the time. Ha.

Re: my first c10 custom
I'm running Hoosier radials on the '55 I'm building, and I'm anxious to see how they ride and handle. It'll be the first time I've ran anything other than Mickeys. These tires (29x15.50-16) are a little smaller than what I'm used to running, but Hoosier was closing them out and I got them directly from Hoosier for $80 (!) a tire. I wound up buying 4 tires. The 16" diameter probably was a slow seller, but they are perfect for the 16x12 ET III wheels I had custom built.

I have put the '55 on the back burner until I get my '64 up and going. The '64 will be used as my parts chaser, so I'm not going hog wild on it. Once it's a driver, I'll be back on the '55. My in-laws live in Surprise, AZ, and the next time we head over, I'd love to see your fleet. Congrats on the new building. Is there room inside to store some of the trucks? What side of town is it on?

Re: my first c10 custom
Dam Dino! I haven't been online lately and it took me almost two hours of reading to get up to speed with your projects!
![]() ![]() This will be one sweet build as usual ![]() What are you doing for an engine? I have a friend that builds killer chevy engines for a reasonable price. I just wired up his new shop. He has a new web site in the works, but here is his current site. http://www.unitedracingengines.com/ He can build you anything you want, but his current packages come with a great warranty and will have a dyno sheet. Here is a video of a blown SBC that he built for another friend. He could never get it to hook and will be in the 7's soon after some chassis mods he is doing. He was running DOT cheater slicks... Keep the pics coming dude ![]() Tony Last edited by AZ66GMC; 07-08-2011 at 11:25 PM. |
