LS-powered 1979 Chevrolet C10 / Walk around the Build and Modify Book Truck!

A look at the truck I built for the book "Chevrolet & GMC Trucks, 1973-87, How to Build and Modify," published by CarTech Books in 2019. This truck was the focus of all the how-to sections in that book.

Stunning…

[@lillie1shelbie]

Does your book cover k series 4x4’s?

[@pick8208]

Not specifically, but only because I didn't have room. A bunch of what I do cover applies to both 4x4 and 2WD, but there's nothing about transfer cases, front axles, etc.

What size are the tires?

[@pick8208]

The fronts are 245/40 ZR20s on 20x8 wheels. The rears are 285/35 ZR20 on 20x9.5. Wheels are American Racing VN511.

Do you still own this truck? Have you ever considered selling?

Actually, I made this video because I was selling it. Had to make room for a '67 C20 project!
