  • Our Truck Tech C10 Fauxtina project is quite the beast. We're working on a '71 C-10, set to be absolutely jaw-dropping. We're souping it up with a Corvette power plant, definitely going to have hot rodders in awe. It's not just about the power though, it's also about the style and stance. We're lowering it down, putting bags on all four corners, aiming for a ground-hugging look. The process involves serious work like cutting into the frame for axle clearance and slapping some reinforcement plates in to keep our rig strong. And once we put the stock rear axle back into place, the transformation is something to admire. Our project is all about turning this classic good-looker into a bagged head-turner with muscle to boot. #c10 #chevy #truck

    I never do repairs on a c10 floor
    Just replace the complete floor
    I can make the doors fit better and get that perfect sound when they close
    C10 doors never fit and close well from the factory
    In the end a new floor makes a perfect cab worth allot more money!!!
    Coupled with new rockers and cab corners…bed line the bottom with matching color to the truck and smooth the fire wall set it up for vintage air

    But like anything its your choice of how you want your vehicle to look .
    High quantity paint job as you call it
    Well i think not because here in Pennsylvania it's a cheap paint job .

  • @jdmorrow1408

    The law that restricts Xfelons from possessing a firearm was created in 1968, in response to the event that accured shortly before in Chicago, where the Chicago State Supreme Court was completely surrounded by the then Black Panthers armed with constitutional protected firearms. There for, it was not only an unconstitutional ruling but also Racist ruling. The analogy proposed by the state that back in history criminals would never be charged with duch offense because they would be executed for other crimes. This is nothing more than speculation snd congiture but for a traverse challenge, Our forefathers that drafted the constitution were at the moment of sign the declaration of independence became criminals. Their crime, 'Treason against the Crown.' punishable by death. This means they were criminals while they wrote the second amendment. Where-by, any law the places any restrictions is in violation. Prriod.

    General Motors AFM fuel management sucks. Instead of having thoseazy freaking two-stage lifters that really pieces of crap. why not just shut off the fuel and spark to the cylinders that you don’t want to run and save the economy that way.
    The complexity of the mechanical two stage lifters when a few key strikes would just shut off the fuel and save gas.
    GM’s last attempt at this type of active fuel management has never worked right.
    The DFM sucked and remember the 1981 Cadillac. The famed V8-6-4 engine. One year only and it was a piece of crap.
