Possible new C-10 build and want your opinions....
 
Well gang I've been back and forth with Ben Hermance and trying my hand at a design or two myself as well...
There are a lot of the C-10's that are really beautifully and I'm having a Hell of a time deciding on a final design
and would like to hear comments good and bad about this little Photochop I did ;-)... I want to be very clear
that the stripe was inspired by an online image and I modified the stripe ,and background of the stripe as I
thought it looked good however I wanted to personalize it.......

The build will feature some new Carbon offerings from Carbon Kustoms, a custom built Mock frame, an LS power
plant, a rear mounted 6spd trans & IRS, Ride Tech air system....

Anyways here goes Albert Photoshop 101 LOL,,, give me your thoughts please.....

In my humble opinion, if you built that truck exactly like the rendering, you would have the baddest C-10 I have ever seen. That is beautiful:thumbsup:

Wow thank you very much Greg....

My humble opinion is that Greg is spot on. Seriously, that's pretty awesome looking. I like the subtle stretch in the cab. That should help make the truck more comfortable to drive as well.

Can we get some details on the chassis and suspension?

Yeah, that is sick. I love the 68-72 C10's. love the colors, the strip, the center lock wheels... Hell, all of it.

Now hurry up and get it going so I have another project to watch :thumbsup:

Is this a trick question? :lol:

Seriously, I think w with the flat black top accent you could even leave off the side stripe but really either way looks great. Is that an Escalade fender vent? You could black anno or body color that and it would be off the hook.

I'm also with Jeff, get busy Albert :lateral: :cheers:

Very nice Albert! Obviously, I am biased to C-10's! Now you start to come out with C-10 parts! :( Can't wait to see this one come together. :thumbsup:

This will be right up there with the No Limit C10 in terms of how hard core the truck is. The No Limit truck, to me, is a fantastic truck. I love all the neat tricks they put into that one.

Albert -- maybe you missed your true calling.... I did get a sense for a bit of wrist action a couple times... :unibrow:


Seriously -- build it just like that! Don't change ANYTHING.

:cheers: :thumbsup:

Thanks guys..... I want to unload a couple of cars as I'm finding myself getting right back into build mode and cars and molds are the magic formula done together that finally makes me say ouch LOL....

All kidding aside, I have a lot of plans and a couple of cars that need to go but this project is looking more and more like it'll finally be started in the first quarter of 2013....

As far as the chassis,, well lets just say it'll be a Scott Mock and DSE (all this equal) master piece.. Scott and I have discussed some really cool ideas and I'm awaiting a return call from Kyle to discuss an idea brought forward from Scott that I thought was brilliant!!! If it works out, I'm confident that this truck will handle incredibly well and be incredibly light as well....

Details will follow gang,,,, and thanks again for the words of encouragement...
