Full Build: 1971 Chevy C10 LT1 Swapped and Bagged

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

Absolutely love everything about this build. Also good to see Kevin Tetz approve the build. BTW nice casting couch @1:32.17.

I'm not a big fan of fauxtina, but I don't hate a well done fauxtina job as much as I hate is when someone sprays gloss over real patina.

[brettlanglois]

Wow! Great job fellows! You two really know your stuff and it was a pleasure to watch you work. Thank you for the entertainment! Enjoy your “new” ride!

Oh how I miss mine, I had a 67, 68 and a 71. But I miss my 68 the most because it was my Grandpa's

[gotrojans]

Makes me want to have a truck. Just wish my garage was wide enough to fit two large cars. Nice work you two!

[KCAATV]

So, you destroy a perfect restoration with overspray and blotches. Give me strength !!!

[pt_atx]

There is cryo tech available for cleaning the underside of the truck. Pretty common nowadays and makes it look almost brand new. Been available for quite sometime through detail shops.

[shawngubernath]

Wow nothing like an unlimited build budget, way to tear up a perfectly good truck

[christophermcbride]

tht is a pretty good looking truck with new suspension and air ride

Thoughts and prayers for that stock 12 bolt C-clip rear end

[hawkdsl]

Airbags suck, and "patina" is hideous. That's why Copperhead is still the #1 67-72 build.

[blahblah]

I can totally hear the song Stranglehold by Ted Nugent in my head while I was watching this...great build!

[delta-theoryarizona]

I knew something was fucked up under that bed liner as soon as i saw the truck pull into the shop lol

[seanw]

Why would you put a DOD/AFM in a hot rod?

[Byron_Matzner]
