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.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.

2016 Green Truck of the Year, Commercial Green Car of the Year finalists

Sat, Oct 24 2015

Not only are commercial-grade haulers getting more green love lately, they're getting more different kinds of green love. The 2016 Green Truck of the Year, the second time the award has been handed out, is being decided by judges from Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show. This year the award is joined by the new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year, which crowns one of the little vans increasingly used by small business as cargo and delivery vehicles. The Green Truck of the Year finalists are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax (pictured), Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. The first three of those were on last year's list, but since they are completely new or upgraded for 2016 - Ford with its all-aluminum body, the General Motors twins with the new diesel Duramax engine - they qualify for entry again. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel won last year. The Commercial Green Car finalists are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. You can read more details in the presser below, and the awards will be announced in San Antonio sometime during the show from November 19-22. San Antonio Auto & Truck Show Announces 2016 Green Truck of the Year and Commercial Green Car of the Year Finalists SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show have announced finalists for the 2016 Green Truck of the Year™ and 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ awards. The Green Truck of the Year™ nominees are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax, Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. Vying for the all-new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. "Over the past few decades, new car models have benefitted from design and technology improvements that have brought higher fuel efficiency and greater levels of environmental compatibility," said Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com Editor and Publisher Ron Cogan. "With models like these ten deserving finalists, we're witnessing the pickup and light commercial vehicle field enjoying the same attention." The new Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award is part of an expanded awards program presented at this year's 2015 San Antonio Auto & Truck Show.

Personal testimonies show real-world effect of plugging in with Chevy Volt

Mon, Jan 13 2014

At this point, there are tens of thousands of individual stories about what it's like to live with a Chevrolet Volt. But it also remains informative to take a look at one of these in depth. For example, one Atlanta-area Volt owner says he's cut his cents-per-mile ownership costs by almost 40 percent compared to his previous car primarily because of his ability to drive almost all the time on electric power. Jeffrey Cohen told Clean Technica that he put about 14,000 miles on his Volt extended-range plug-in hybrid for the year that ended October 2013, and that more than 92 percent of those were on electrons. He estimates his "lifetime" miles per gallon rating at a whopping 384 mpg, a figure pushed upward by the fact that he installed a Level 2 charger at home while his employer added an external 110-volt charger at work. Cohen is spending 45 cents a mile for his car, compared to 73 cents in his Infiniti M35. As a result, he's spending 45 cents a mile for his car, compared to 73 cents a mile with his prior vehicle, an Infiniti M35. About two-thirds of those Volt costs are for the $349-a-month lease payments, while 15 percent is insurance, 11 percent is for the charger and seven percent for the gas and electricity that actually powers the car. Helping lower that last figure is an overnight electricity rate that's about 10 percent of Cohen's daytime rate. Chevy parent General Motors hopes such testimonies will re-trigger sales for the Volt in 2014. Last year, GM sold 23,094 Volts, down 1.6 percent from 2012. We expect our readers have similar stories they'd like to share in the Comments.
