My next big build! This 1966 Chevrolet C10 short bed step side is an awesome barn find and I can't wait to get this thing running and driving with the new frame/body swap from an 08 envoy/trailblazer. We removed the short bed frame from this chevy truck and rolled in the new frame to see if it fits!
We are gonna turn this classic farm truck into a true modern hot rod. With some custom fabrication and welding on the frame to make the patina body and bed fit on the new frame, this custom truck will drive like new!

we need that ecoboost foxbody after this awesome build
Agreed. Motion Auto TV.....Channel of oddball swaps!
big turbo ecoboost
@@notorious_diego2446 for sure
You can swap the brakes and rear axle off the ext envoy including the transmission oil cooler on it to the short chassis. Brakes and rear diff are bigger on the ext.
Free upgrades 👍🏼
Dude this is why I love the internet
The TBSS rear axle would probably be a better swap. It's a 9.5 inch 14 bolt with a 4.10 ratio and a G86 LSD.
Go ahead and do the chassis swap! It’s so easy to say “buy all this expensive shit and LS swap” just like building 1000hp Supra. But in reality most people can’t afford the $$$ to do it right. This is motionauto tv nothing is standard or just bolt on. This is what separates this channel from the others and makes the builds and videos a lot more interesting to watch. Plus you lean new skills along the way! Keep doing what you’re doing!
Could not agree more trevys customs dont just think outside the box make a new box then think outside of it
Crazy not to do it this way whilst the economys on fire man. Working with what you have on a budget is where this channel came from.
Yep, it's exactly the time to do a labour intensive, low parts cost build.
Doing it on a budget, but doing it correctly. 💪
There is a C10 out there with a rotted frame that would love the one you have. I don't think you will have any problems selling it if you do so.
Dude it's your channel do what you want. I for one am very interested to see the budget build and that it doesn't have to be rocket science to do the build
I'll be honest, I wasn't digging the idea at first, but it's for sure growing on me. Much respect as always for doing all the work yourself. You develop a plan and follow through and do the work yourself, which is atypical for most TH-cam "car guys". Keep up the good work as always!
Make sure ball joints are good, I’ve replaced a lot of them on envoys and trailblazers
Needs a decent amount of control arm bushings, and ball joints done
I think what your doing with this is awesome! Saving a ton of money doing it the way your are. Using the old frame and buying those parts would’ve also been boring in my opinion
Nice. Glad you found a frame that didn't need spliced. Should make for a quick turn around. That's why I like to watch your channel. You get work done.
Also, I would love to do this with an old F-100 and CrownVic.
@@KnedCBaker they did that on hotrod garage if you ever decide to tackle it man came out pretty sick if you have not seen it
@@brandonpanozzo86 Awesome, I have not seen that. I will definitely check it out. Thanks man!
@@KnedCBaker yup for sure
Man this has got to be the most og build on TH-cam right now.
Highly skilled budget build.
Go just to the inside of the inner fender brace and cut. Leave about an inch for a flange. You can drill and riv-nut it. You can the make a new inner fender that gives you room for the coil bucket. Hopefully, that makes sense.
Nice work guys! My friends did the same with a Chevy Trailblazer frame here in SA. They cut out the inner fenderwells and the loadbin floor to drop it nice and low. Also had the same greenbean color 😅 Looked awesome and made 1000 horse to the tyre on an LS2 with two gtx35s on it. Keep it up and good luck.
I will tell you right now the brakes on that are amazing. My trailblazer stopped amazing and with you taking that Envoy body off and putting that C10 body on it saved a bunch of weight so it's going to stop even better compared to what it did stop like. Going this route is far better than buying some slight upgrade parts to make the old frame just slightly better. A buddy took his C10 and bought all those parts and it wasn't worth it in the long run.
Yeah the envoy frame is practically the same! Freakin crazy! Minor modifications i mean really i can alreddy see it in my head lol its gonna work
The complete suspension system upgrade will cost $6000. This is build people. Unless you all want to donate six bands to the build. 😉
Budget vintage is an interesting idea! Also saving money means he can possibly go crazier elsewhere 😈
Yea trevor love the c10 content
You should use the C-10 frame to make a drift go cart. Just add a steering wheel, roll cage and any engine you have laying around. :D
One of the guys at my shop up in the springs has an Apache chevy truck that’s on a long bed 1500 frame. Definitely doable! The Vortec engine has 300k on it and still runs amazing.
That chasis look amazing continue push true.
I'm stoked for this build , I wish we had cool trucks like this here in England that weren't an absolute fortune
Ian Rush's Moustache could you ship one over?
loving daves idea, def a good opportunity for some good ol wobble bolts. trevys customs baby
I've been researching the 4200, the engines are capable of making some steam with a turbo. Port the head, bigger throttle body?intake?, etc Before you install it , do go through the entire engine, replacing any questionable parts, check cam timing, chains, rings, bore,etc That old Chevy could rip off a 10-second 1/4 mile and return 25 -30 mpg at cruise with that big 6. They are so smooth compared to the LS V8.Less cylinders = more fun,for less $$$$
Trevor, thanks for the tool hook up. Picked up a set of screwdrivers from tekton with your code!
I was not excited about this project initially, but it has grown on me. Great content.
I bought upgrade to Brembos on ,my 1999 Camaro SS. Bought some used ones off eBay for $50. I installed them on my car and have been driving it as a daily for 2 years and I never bled them.
At first I also was thinking why you don't use the old frame... And dang it's expensive. Good decision and mounting it on the new frame will be also a nice challenge!
My vote goes to frame swapping, no way you could go wrong.
You’re on the right track Trev and you’re right it is way more modern then messing with that other old frame. Plus the idea of a straight six turbo is mint! Keep it going.
This is really cool build, I hope you can make it work with the 4.2 + Turbo
Your kinda doing the same thing I’m doing to my 1972 GMC. I’m body swapping the ‘72 GMC body onto a ‘03 Chevy 2500hd 4x4 chassis. Keep up the great work! Cheers 🍻
Loving this build.
Stuff spending 6k on bolt on upgrades, when you can use a $300 donor chassis.
I just wanna see longer eps, so I can see more progress. But at the same time I don't want to wait a week between eps, so catch 22 I guess....
Welcome to the C10 family. To answer your question about modernizing the suspension, yes, you can can spend a LOT of money doing it. Looking good so far. Can't wait to see it finished!
Best build on TH-cam right now
Do you love these vids that he makes?
As cool as it is to see a complete performance build which costs thousands, this build is awesome. Love the idea of taking a cheap build and making it amazing. Trevy customs continues!
This is one of the smartest swaps/upgrades i have seen in a long time.
Sweet!
pros and cons to either frame. id hate to see a clean original truck get cut up to fit a weird frame, but its definitely an easier route to good performance
Wasn’t necessarily on board with the envoy swap at the beginning, but I’m looking forward to the progress.its cool to see something different. People put crown Vic parts on f150 all day long, this could be the new Chevy swap.
That newer frame will make that truck feel like its floating on a cloud !!! Soooo dope and such a huge upgrade
Super pumped on this build and I'm not even a Chevy guy I just think it's cool and unique
Amazing how after half a century, the frame has changed so little. This is gonna be a cool ass truck.
I'm pumped to see this thing done. Came out of left field with the c-10 project but it's so dope
Good thinking.. and
Please do this truck for enjoyment...if you can
The color should be from the 60's if you can
Don't forget to spray the truck with anti-rust very necessary..
Do some sounds insulation..if you can
GOOD LUCK
It’s gonna look low and mean on that chassis and you can run some super deep dishes with that fitment
I never thought I would get a comment liked by motion auto lives good
Wtf Trevor where is my "cleaning the shop" video? 😂😀😂
Junkyard Dave in the house helping on this one.. looks good so far fellas! Taking notes here 👍🏼
Trev the whole gripe is from people that are part changers that think they are a mechanic I want to see what is not supposed to get done get done want to watch a parts changer try strad man or street speed 717 this is why I watch this channel to learn so thank you for what you do
Factory short bed frames sell for around a grand. One that clean could possibly fetch more, that's a pretty rare sight. Wish I was closer I'd like a spare myself.
Few clarifications I'd like to point aftermarket ifs yields slightly better handling but the main reason is tire size and ground clearance. With the factory ifs you're lucky to get a 285 up front, most aftermarket ifs can tuck a 315. And the factory ifs hangs really low when you start lowering them. The rack and pinion is only slightly better than the stock power steering equipped c10 it mainly helps with cramming bigger meat up front as you no longer have the gear box in the drivers side wheel well. And it's no better than an upgraded quick ration stock style gear box pump. Aftermarket ifs isn't common or practical for most unless you're crazy enough like some of us to spend the 4-6k+ on custom wheels to actually yield the benefits of it. Most people only upgrade their suspension for coilovers and unless you're dropping pretty big figures for something like ridetech tq's, upgraded springs and shocks are equally as good. Mainly comes down to ride height adjustability. The 4 link kits are generally pretty sub par it's just the easiest way to convert the rear to coilovers whilst maintaining a bed floor. Otherwise modified oem style trailing arms with custom work and no or cut bed floor is significantly better.
I get what you're saying though money wise not trying to knock the spirit of the build in any way. I don't want to know what all I have in mine.. I'd guess around 10k in suspension and brakes alone.. After a while you just stop counting especially when you're going for lap times.. Besides nothing is more enjoyable than outperforming some of the top cars out there.
Man this turned out to be a cool project. Honestly didn't expect the frame swap. Excited to see what happens.
It’s your channel man, build it how you want, I think it’s going to be a sweet budget truck,,
Exactly!! Totally agree
Love the idea. 10-12 psi on this thing should make 500ish easy.
This is the type of truck I hope to find and import for me to restore the chassis and interior but leaving the patina
That's what I like show us how we can do things on a budget thanks
My favorite thing about this channel is even when you're doing a build I wouldn't personally do, it's still super interesting and very informative. Can't wait to see how this turns out. 🇺🇸🔥🔥🍻
So much progress in so little time. Make it fit.
You should see if you can try and lower where the engine is mounted in the frame to make it fit nicer. Love the content btw :)
Trevor you would be correct. Your 64 is in excellent condition and it was a colorado car which is crazy. My 64 was a rust bucket with the floor pans, and fenders completely rotted out
Justifies doing body swap with you don’t have to bleed the brakes 😂 love it🤘🏻
Dont forget to take the gas petal outta the envoy its eletric and if tou dont ull have to use a scan too to relearn with a new one
I git. My trevy’s custom shirt fantastic soft and came with stickers and all kinds of goodies thanks you guys are the best
dont forget you have TBSS parts to pick from like brakes and rear end
I think it's a cool build budget high horsepower shop truck, what's not too love
Love the build. Still wish you would paint the body after doing all this work.
I can't wait to see this running
This is awesome. If a guy was doing a mild lifted 4x4 this would be even easier.
If the truck was Jimmy Oakes' it would be a 240sx ready.
It's midnight, I'm exhausted from spreading gravel, restoring a set of headlights, and helping my cousin work on his car, but as soon as I realized a C10 update was up I had no choice but to watch before I crash out for the night.
I am currently putting a 62 c10 long fleet side on an 02 suburban frame
Giterdone!!! Your doing what you need to do. Just like we all would.
Best to buy another 4.2L, I love the idea but if u go to change the head gasket in the other motor the head bolts break off down inside the block, every 4.2 I've ever tore into I've had the head bolts snap off inside the block... Just a warning but I do love your builds and I look forward to all your episodes!!!
Subcribers going increase each week after shop clean up..good jobs..keep going and successfull..supporter from Malaysia!
Yo the "OG" intro
i honestly like that more lol idk why though
Great project. You come up with some awesome project swap ideas. Then make it happen! Awesome!!
I saw the motortrend episode of them making 400hp with that engine it would be so sick to see you do the same especially because it's an original 6cyl truck
Your build do it the way you want 👍
Definitely do the red steelies with the half moons
Love how dave has the hands behind his back, as if he is saying: "I aint touching this project man"
Always love the videos & work you guys achieve.
Ps could you do 2 step in the supra next video to motivate me again 😄 love that thing I kinda want a r34 kinda want a supra.... 2j in a r34 maybe or rb in a supra ahhh I need Tony Starks Jarvis right now lmao
Man trevy , hate to say it but i like those red steelies,just put some moon caps & beauty rings on it and call it a day. Looks old skool as well as cheap and effective.
this is a great project, dont let the haters get you down.
also that 5K in upgrades doesnt get you an engine
Really enjoying this build so far.
Its gonna drive good whit the modern frame 👍
Trevy you are the man
I forgot those trucks had trailing arm rear suspension. Yeah, you wouldn't have needed to change that to a 4 link. That existing suspension works pretty decent as is with some up grades.
Shop looks so much bigger clean haha
Oh and best trevies custom yet, enjoying this series.thanks mate for this content!
Love this series Trevor! Looking forward to more episodes 🔥
plow on bud. looks like the makings of a sweet swap.
Loving this build series
I love this! Way more realistic.
Freeking loving this build man so interesting !! Cannot wait for more progress, thanks for the content Trevor and Tyler 👌
Looks cool! I can dig the budget side of it.!
Double wishbone suspension 😁
Looking forward to this build something different
YOU THE MAN!!!!!!!!!
Keep on keeping on! Great build
Excited to see this finished
Looking like it's gonna be sick
