Hot Rod Garage / Roadkill Garage C10

Heyhey! New to the forum so here's a bit about the project.

It's a '67 c10 that started life as a longbed, was plucked off a farm and then cutdown to a short bed on Hot Rod Garage (I work on the show) and dropped onto a full QA1 dual adjustable coiler kit. All new bedsides from Brothers and some real minor 350 hop ups. Freiburger bought it from the company, then (Dulcich) painted the bed, dynamatted it and threw on better wheels on an episode of Roadkill Garage. It had a couple other little bits of screen time, but that's all the work worth mentioning.

I bought it off of him and have been running it as a part time daily. Planning for a milage-focused LS swap, 18/19's, A/C, and all the things that'll make it an excellent daily driver.

I'm trying to use all used parts for whatever needs replacing. I call it Recycle Blue, so I'm trying to stick with the reused theme. Just because we're car people doesn't mean we can't do our part.

So I'll probably hit you up for some used parts, and will keep updating as things progress! https://www.instagram.com/p/BxAj9HTh-fE/

That is a nice score. I would live to find one of there vehicles for sale since I am a big Frieburger and Dulchich fan.

Re: Hot Rod Garage / Roadkill Garage C10

Thanks everybody! It's a great truck. Unfortunately the supercharger is no more.

Even more unfortunately it got rear ended recently... So if anyone's got a lead on a drivers side short/fleet bedside and a tailgate, I'm you're guy!

Why not buy new parts, and rebuild it. It could be that much more anyways from the short bed in prices.

I'm trying something different in this build than I've done in the past. I want to see what it's like to put something together using all used parts. There's so much good functional stuff just sitting in all of our garages that it seems kinda silly to buy new parts. I'm very much the type of guy that would rather drive an old truck thats already on the road than a new Tesla that's "green" despite having to build an entirely new car...

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, right??
