Title: 73/74 C10 featured in this months Hot Rod magazine!
Post by: bigblock73 on April 16, 2009, 11:45:29 pm
The latest issue of Hot Rod has a neat article on making your own "muscle truck", it features a 74 (IIRC) C10 stepside beater with an LS transplant. I got it in the mail today and haven't read it yet, but it looks pretty interesting...and it's cool to see one of ours in such a big non-truck magazine. I am sure it will get lots of hate mail from the "car" guys...but I don't care.

Check it out!

HA, that is David Freiburger truck they are using for "slot" racing.  It was supposed to be on carjunkietv (which lacked backing) I guess since he is back with HotRod they are going to show it now.  He is running the BRP headers I have for mine....

I read this article today and it was very interesting. I really liked the truck but I am partile to the stepsides. It is nice to see one of our trucks used as a platform for a hot rod and be recognized for it.
