Cool

I was just thinking the other day about the K5 my buddy and I drove around in HS and the stuff we got into, it was that exact color too .... he did plywood the back of the cab cuz he didn't want to put the top on and lose p/u space.

I think a C5 with an LS is an awesome idea .... I'd drive the heck outa that!

Well, the other K5 we're working is a one ton 4wd with a Cummins. That's a different site though. Same color.

I love watching your builds, even if they do make me incredibly jealous and envious...

Love the idea. Do you have a link to the other K5 build?

Well, it should be. I'd like to see this, and who doesn't like trucks? There are many here already.

Meh, it's a diesel conversion, 4x4 on 37" tires and one tons... been done many times. Also, won't take a corner anywhere near what my other projects will . Same is true for the 70 K10 we're working on.

Is it me, or do the 19x12 Z06 rims and tires look small on this?

Thought about sectioning the body... but also think a 22x12" Budnik from my buddy Jay (Swain) would work well, with a taller tire front and rear.

I think Giff starts assembly on the C5 chassis soon.

My friend has a new GMC pickup and I saw his, either 22 or 24" wheels and thought holy crap those are gigantic! He put them on and that pickup swallowed them up and they look great on there. Nowhere near as wide as your thinking of, they would look great.
