We had the same problem, had to have them made. Rob from no limit made the centers, we found the hoops from a place in Alabama " i think"? Then Intro welded the up for us.

[woodside783]

[jb@ridetech]

yep... stock cab, fenders, and bed sides

[SparkyRnD]

that is one of the baddest race trucks I've seen!

[astroracer]

Very KOOL! I love that Quick Change! I want to put one in my Firebird when I get around to building that.
I also like the furniture cart. Those things are indispensible aren't they?

Your C10 looks awesome, and it looks like you beat up on a ton of fast cars at the Nashville autox

Did you buy those 18" wide five wheels or make them?

Any idea how much the truck weighs?

[fordsbyjay]

Thank You

[COPO-RAT]

Was the quickest vehicle on the lot when I left GG C-bus today, how'd you end up? I chuckled when Chad announced the time and then said something along the lines of.........'in case you didn't notice folks, that's a pickup truck!'.
Awesome!

Awesome!

Currently 2nd fastest on the property, and won the vendor shoot out!

[Vicinity]

That's hands down the coolest C10 I've ever seen.

And that's exactly the white I've been looking for.

[xtreme]

Thats badass!

[joemac]

I love trucks built to handle.

[rstone]

Any updates on this truck...Seen it in the back ground of a picture of the LS Fest. Looked like you've been making some changes?

[jb@ridetech]

It was a shortbed truck

[jb@ridetech]

Just single stag flat white

[jb@ridetech]

Update on the truck ! New body and paint, also went to sema and OUSCI ! Sorry for delay been busy! Lol

[SparkyRnD]

yep, baddest c10 I've seen. And, from the videos of you running at GG, which I am sure do NOT do the truck justice, one of the best sounding trucks too. Hope to see it at an event this coming year.

[LOWDOWN2]

Trent/Jason/Brad -
