This 84 Chevy C10 has everything. The truck started as an everyday California truck a few years ago, but was tore down to the frame and built backup. The paint has its share of nicks and dings here and there but almost everything on the truck is new.

Started with a blank frame stripped it down and had an 8” step notch welded in the back and notches in the front cut out for a mustang II rack and pinion. Then coated the frame in POR-15 to prevent any rust (not like we’ll see much rain in CA). Once complete assembly began with the following parts

Porterbuilt V2 Dropmember with LSX engine mounts (Power coated silver)

Ridetech tubular upper and lower control arms (painted silver)

Ridetech airbags front and rear

Porterbuilt front sway bar

Belltech drop spindles

KP Components Cantilever 6 link (Power coated silver)

KP Components Watts link (Power coated silver)

Brothers Truck rear 19 gallon fuel cell

Brand new fuel and brake lines ran from master cylinder to each wheel.

The old 305 engine was removed and replaced with a 2006 5.3 w/ 4l60e transmission. The engine was pulled from a wrecked Tahoe with 60k miles on it. A basic tune has been installed, new plugs, MSD wires etc and it runs great! Lokar shift rods adapt the dash shifter to the 4l60e. Steel braided trans lines running from the trans to the cooler.

Since it lays frame when laid out the heater and AC systems were removed and a blocking plate installed on the firewall. To clean up the engine bay and prevent all the road grime from landing on the underside of the hood and engine bay Slosh Tubs fiberglass wheel wells were installed.

It rides on new Boss 330 20x8.5 wheels and tires

Optima battery provides tons of power for the compressors, stereo, engine and accessories; sits under the bed in a drop down battery box.

Interior  -

In the interior, the dash was covered in black leather with red stitching, all the AC/heater vents shaved in the process. New carpet was installed, the headliner is covered in grey suede.

Door panels are from Rod Doors covered in black leather and grey suede accents. Door locks were removed and AVS door popper kit installed. The AVS kit is very nice, no need for 10lb door poppers, fairly quiet when hitting the switches.

Dakota Digital VHX red carbon fiber gauges were installed in the dash and wired up. Ridetech E2 digital gauges monitor the pressure of all 4 air bags with 3 presets.

A Sony stereo with Rockford Fosgate amp and 2x 10” Rockford Fosgate subs make the system sound great! Custom kick panels house 2x 6.5” mids and 2” tweeters.

 

Bed –

The bed floor was raised 4” new wheel wells installed. Rear Stake holes, rear tailgate skinned and shaved everything coated in bedliner.

2xViair 440 compressors, 8 gallon tank and an Accuair Vu2, Ridetech pressure sensors are mounted in the bed on a custom mount and covered by the fiberglass Snugtop Tonneau.

Exterior –

Handles were shaved, led turn signals up front and rear led tail lights and new lenses. Billet front grill painted front bumper and rear roll pan. New window felts and wind wing rubbers, One Piece Products flush mount rear window.

I don’t really drive this now and looking to sell this to make room for another project. Lost more parts installed, just can’t remember. I have receipts for most everything installed (over 20k), has been fun building, but time to move on. Buyer is responsible for picking up the truck. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.

EarthCruiser adds a bigger camper option to its heavy duty pickup line

Tue, Sep 29 2020

EarthCruiser is a camper and expedition vehicle company based out of Oregon that we've previously covered for its huge commercial truck-based machines. But they offer more than that, from drop-in campers for smaller pickups to heavy duty pickup conversions. The company's latest product is one of the latter, offering a larger camping area than the current EXD model. This new camper conversion is called the Terranova. The big differentiator between it and the EXD is the camper section, which extends over the truck cab on the Terranova. This means that bed space can be moved to above the truck cab, instead of having to use a convertible dinette. So less reconfiguring, and generally more usable space. One other major difference is that the EXD is only available for the Ram 3500 and Ford F-350. The Terranova is being designed for both of those trucks as well as the Chevy Silverado 3500. The EarthCruiser Terranova is otherwise very similar to other EarthCruiser models. The camper section is made of fiberglass and plastic, and the pop-up roof is insulated with foam. The curtains are triple-layered. The company says it can house four people. It comes with a freshwater tank and pump to help supply the kitchen sink, drinking water tap, bathroom sink and indoor and outdoor showers. There's also a cassette toilet. The kitchen features an induction stove top and small refrigerator and freezer. A fan system is standard, and air conditioning is optional. Power comes from a 400-aH lithium-ion battery. The Terranova isn't yet available. EarthCruiser is finishing up design and engineering, and it plans to have finished examples early next year. The company is taking reservations now, though. Pricing hasn't been announced, but an EXD runs between $220,000 and $265,000, and we would expect the Terranova to cost even more.

Hagerty kicks back with Ringbrothers for a look at the Recoil

Sat, May 2 2015

Over the years, Ringbrothers has shown the ability to mix a meticulous eye for style and serious amounts of horsepower with customs like the Pantera-based Adrnln. The company's recent project, a tuned 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle called Recoil, is some of its best work yet and already has Jay Leno's denim-clad stamp of approval. Now, Hagerty is taking a look, while digging into the history of the actual Ring brothers: Mike and Jim. The two guys grew up in a small town where owning a car was practically a necessity, and the brothers were already wrenching before they could even legally drive. Eventually, that passion grew into a business, which led to wonderfully customized performance vehicles like the Recoil. Hagerty gets a fascinating look into Ringbrothers tuning philosophy in its interview. Of course, the real interest lies in this custom Chevelle, and there's a chance to hear the absolutely ferocious sound from the Recoil's supercharged V8 in this clip.
