My Second & Third Trucks
1982 Chevy C10 Silverado & 1987 GMC Sierra C10 Custom
Here is the truck when I first got her. Then I took the entire truck apart. So here is her story.
Here is the first change the motor and clean up the entire front frame and front end. I also put Nascar rims (15x10) and Firestone Firehawk 500 tires (265/65r15) on the truck.
After cleaning the front frame and painting the frame, firewall and fenders next came the motor. I built up a 350hp 350 v-8 with about 400ft.lbs.
So now she has a new motor and cooling system along with the rims and tires and a 3in drop in the front with DJM lowerd control arms and new Moog Stock springs ans new shackels and 4in lowered leaf springs with 3.73 posi in the rear. Unfortionatly I do not have pictures of these mods.
So next I gutted the insideand the firewall to start on a custom dashboard with the Autometer Guages and Nascar style switches.
Unfortionatly this is where I got rear ended and it bent the frame and shoved the bed into the cab and I had to get another truck. So I found a 82 regular cab shortbed and swapped all the parts over.
So here is the new truck. A lot of work to get done.
Swapped the motor and trans. I did not get a lot of pics of this stage.
Here is the beginning of the body work and the truck getting primered.
Here are pictures of the truck entirely primed.
I swapped the truck over to Carburated and put a 327 corvette cam in her.
Interior with the Gauges and panel for the Nascar switches and new dashboard.
Trip down to Countyline Dragstrip
Unfortionatly my truck did not make it much longer and the engine caught fire and burned the entire engine compartment and the whole interior.
