Customer Spotlight: Steve Monarrez built one killer '74 C10 squarebody

- Steve Monarrez built this incredible '74 C10 using our bolt in Pro-Touring IFS. At the time we did not offer a direct bolt in rear suspension so we sourced him some parts from our 55-59 Chevy pickup 4-Link and other parts from our Camaro Torque Arm. We knew he was going to step the rear frame rails so the Torque Arm was going to be a good match for his intended usage. Steve was able to take the supplied components and install them on his stepped rail stock chassis. The final stance was nothing short of perfect and yet it still rides and performs like a new Muscle Car. With 390whp on tap and 305 Mickey Thompsons out back the truck really hauls (pun intended). So whether Steve is just out cruising, beating up on some unsuspecting victim or going on a date with his wife Stacey this truck can do it all.

I was born in 74 and LOVE it. All I would have done is put a 20” on the back and that it! Great Job!!!
Beautiful truck super clean!
Oh man, that seat!
I've owned two 73 C10s. A custom with a 350 and a Cheyenne with a 454.
Nice really nice it’s perfect you did everything right your right it’s got that modern pro street not over kill with crazy paint design that’s a real truck
Very clean and love the stance!!
That's a nice looking truck Steve. I got a 86 long bed c 10 chev pickup I would live to fix up like that. Hopefully i can start this winter. Enjoyed your video
Spectacular! Very nice work
Sweet. 😁 love under the hood look.
Great job Steve!! I wouldn’t change a thing!! Riding on 20’s is an issue with the low profile 245/35/20 I have up front.. The price we pay to get the stance we want 😕
nice! love everything about it!
Nice video. Nice c10
Looks and sounds great!!
I would drive it everyday its not raining 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
That’s an beast of truck
slick pick up
Super nice I love it👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪💯💯💯
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Looks nice though
what backspacing and rim sizes did you end up going with?
Was the rear tire size I know is a 305 but tire height
305/?/R18
We're not 100% sure but we believe that Mickey Thompson tire is only available in a 40 series @ 305 width.
How lowered is it? And what kit did you use? Truck is 🔥
All of the suspension details are in the video. He used our Pro-Touring IFS and early muscle car Torque Arm kits. He also raised the rear frame rails 7" to accommodate the rear ride height.
Que hermosura😍
1:13 bought that for 3k? 😮
Do you have a shop would like to start a project for a C10
Where do you live?
WOW! very nice truck what size wheels you have on it
18x8 & 18x11 with 245 & 305 tires
@@tcimuscle the rear end I'm sure was shortened, did you buy it from a company, and what company? or did you have it modified? offhand would you give the measurements/info, sorry for the questions but I love the way your truck sits with those size wheels, if I can afford it id like to go with the 18x11 in the rear on my truck, soon ill be downloading vids of my truck build, its a 79 C-Dime, thank you
@@Channel505 The truck is/was owned by Steve at Famous Tire. We supplied the suspension. An 11" wide wheel will fit on a stock rearend with the proper backspacing. I'm pretty sure Steve had the factory rearend narrowed 2" per side so that he could run a deeper lip wheel.
@@tcimuscle right on thanks for the info, I appreciate you responding back to me,
very nice truck. i just have to ask u really paid 3,000 for it with no drive train only because i have a few of these sitting with good clean body with 0 rust in them i have one that is a scottsdale full chrome trim with Cadillac air ride suspension from factory it sits 3 inches lower then a normal 1/2 ton got all of them for free. i all ready have a 79 short box 4x4 cheyenne full option truck with the 400 sbc and 400 turbo 100% factory with under 35,000 miles on it in mint condition got it free. plus i am building a 68 short box with a stroke 454 with 02xx 400r turbo in it just needs interior finished and final paint have 2,000 in it running and driving and it likes to lay rubber started with a 450 hp 454 shooting for 700 hp. if u ever get ur hands on a 02xx trans they make the best street trans. last year i got 4 crate setups with the 450 hp 454 with the 02xx trans got all of them free with 6,000 miles to 58,000 miles on them all running perfect. i run into this stuff all the time for free or real cheap.
ps i been collecting chevys and fords for over 40 years
7” lower without C notch ?
Listen @ 3:30. He notched (stepped) the frame rails 7".
What is the color of this truck 🤩
What mirrors are they?
If Steve didn't mention it in the video, we're not sure.
Looks like it won’t pass smog. My passion for cars and trucks for destroyed with Cali smog laws.
This year vehicle is exempt from smog in California.
Bondo buggy
