When a Lifted 1967 C10 Was Lowered its Coolness Went Up

If you’re building a classic truck for yourself or a customer, the only thing you have to do to succeed is make sure that you or your customer will like it. If you’re building a classic truck to showcase your shop, the only thing you have to do to succeed is make sure that everybody will like it.

The 1967 Chevy C10 you’re looking at here was built at Fueled Customs in Lake Mills, Wisconsin. You’ve probably already figured out that it was built to promote the talents of the shop’s team of fabricators.

Shop owner Eric Banek told us that he paid $900 for the four-wheel-drive C10 in 2006, when he was still a student at WyoTech College in Laramie, Wyoming. The truck had spent most of its life as a campus utility vehicle at the University of Wyoming, but as Eric towed it by chain back to Laramie he was already thinking about his plans to customize it into something cool. While still at WyoTech, he tore it apart, lifted it, painted it, and dropped a stock LS engine between the front fenders.

“Twelve years later, I decided it was time for a transformation,” Eric told Classic Trucks, “bringing the truck down to the ground and converting it to two-wheel drive, as well as some major chassis work and an upgrade to a newer, more powerful LS engine.”

The chassis retains the mostly stock frame, but everything else has been modified and upgraded. The 4WD differential frontend was replaced with the stub from a 1976 C10. Belltech lowering coil springs and 3-inch drop spindles contribute to the change in altitude. Front and rear antiroll bars and QA1 front shocks and rear coilovers improve ride quality. The steering system uses the factory quick-ratio steering box and replacement components from ProForged. Eric designed and fabricated the triangulated four-link and located a custom Ford 9-inch rear. The SRI Performance centersection has a 4.11:1 ring-and-pinion ratio and runs a Detroit Locker. Braking is handled by 12-inch Wilwood discs at each wheel and a Wilwood master cylinder on the firewall. When the chassis was redone, the truck had gone from an up-in-the-air skyscraper to a down-on-the-ground street cruiser.

The redone chassis was just the beginning of the C10’s thorough transformation. Eric wanted to retain the 52-year-old retro appearance of his truck but accent it with some 21st century taste—old school in a new-school year. To that end, the exterior isn’t heavily modified. The aesthetic changes include Halogen headlights in the front and Eddie Motorsports taillights in the rear, plus a pair of custom peep mirrors mounted on the upper window frame. Stainless carriage bolts were welded onto the stock front and rear bumpers. Scorpion bed liner protects the bed. The rear tubs were widened to accommodate the wheels and tires, and an opening in the bed floor was cut to showcase the rearend. Eric says he enjoys hearing people’s comments about the exposed suspension and stainless exhaust pipes.

When Eric bought the C10 in 2006 he changed the paint color from fleet vehicle generic to turquoise metallic. By 2018, that color had passed its expiration date. He wanted a new paintjob that was simple but not plain—something that would attract attention without screaming. The choice was a custom mix inspired by a ’60s GM paint color called Crocus Yellow (also called Bamboo Cream, Saffron Yellow, Mayfair Maize, and other names depending on the marque). Eric calls it “the oddest color you’ve seen,” but odd or not, it looks great on the pickup. Painter James Weide contrasted the yellow with charcoal gray on the grille shell, tailgate panel, and bumpers. Willie Osborne contributed the incredibly subtle red striping around the perimeter of the gray on the tailgate and on the outer circumference of the wheels. It’s almost invisible, but that level of detail is the kind of thing that elevates a truck in status.

Those wheels are the 143 Torque model from Vision Wheel, and measure 18×8 in front and 18×9.5 in back. They’re wrapped in 26×10 and 28×12 Mickey Thompson Sportsman S/R tires.

The hood is supported by a pair of Ring Brothers hinges. The 2004 LS engine underneath was originally installed when Eric first bought the Chevy—and has been recently rebuilt. Eric wanted the new version to make more power and to look like a classic small-block. Mike Tiry at Tiry’s Race Engines in Ripon, Wisconsin, handled the rebuild.

The engine’s true identity is disguised with a factory truck air cleaner atop a Holley 1,000-cfm EFI throttle body and single-plane mid-rise intake manifold. A custom dual snorkel setup adds ’60s muscle car flavor. Chevy script valve covers are fitted to the GM 821 cylinder heads with adapter from Delmo’s Speed & Kustom. Internal components include a Brian Tooley Racing Stage 2 cam and Wiseco pistons and Scat rods spinning the stock GM crank. Gibson stainless steel headers carry exhaust gases to 3-inch dual exhaust pipes that feed into a single 3-1/2-inch tailpipe, visible though the bed floor opening. The desired exhaust tone is provided by Pypes M-80 mufflers.

The 4L60E transmission backing up the LS is beefed up with Red Line racing clutches and wide high-performance band, a Sonnax SmartShell, Koleen steel plate, and more.

Inside the cab, the dash was dressed up with a 1967-1972 C10 dashpad from TMI Products. Below that, the custom gauges, designed and built by Fueled Customs were installed and adapted to the LS engine. The steering wheel is a billet Racer model from Eddie Motorsports mounted on the factory column. A Hurst floor shifter controls the 4L60E below. Inside Rides in Waterford, Wisconsin, added the upholstery, covering the bench and door panels in black leather and plaid cloth. Eric said he was taking a chance with the retro plaid fabric. It reminds us of automotive interiors of the ’40s and ’50s, and Chevy truck upholstery from the ’70s. Eric told us that late-’70s Porsche upholstery was also part of the influence. As with the paint color, it was a great choice and gives the truck a distinct style.

Because the C10 was built to showcase the talents of the Fueled Customs team, Eric enters it in shows whenever he can. The just-finished pickup won two First Place awards at its debut at the 2018 Milwaukee World Of Wheels.

Eric didn’t just build the pickup for publicity and a few awards, however. Like all classic truck enthusiasts, he built it for his own enjoyment—which means using it as a daily driver back home. He is also eager to give the truck some exercise at the dragstrip—probably Great Lakes Dragaway in Union Grove, Wisconsin or Byron Dragway in Northern Illinois—where he expects his slammed yellow C10 to run in the high 11s or low 12s.

High horsepower and suspension/handling via /r/cars

High horsepower and suspension/handling

Hey all- hoping for an answer here since my other forums haven't panned out.

I have a 73 Nova with a 350 that's reaching the end of it's life. The car is my daily so I'm looking into engine swap options/efi/etc etc etc. My buddy has a brand new engine (well, a shelf of brand new parts of an engine yet to be assembled) in his garage, we are thinking of swapping in. The engine is a 383 LT1 w/individual port injection EFI, and an 11:1 compression ratio, that he thinks will be putting 400 HP to the wheels. I am not 100% this is a completely accurate guess ran through a 4l60E, but I'm not a drivetrain expert by any means. He could be right; he's a smart dude. He also has ALL the accessories for the engine, so I can finally have AC

Now; that's a LOT of HP for a daily driver that's already a light car. I want to/am wondering if I NEED to do some handling/braking upgrades. He thinks with a couple tweaks (Need a new power steering rag joint, maybe disc brake conversion) I'd be ok. I'm wondering if I need to go all out-balls out and drop a 4 link in the back; which I'm paranoid about doing because we had some trouble installing my new leafs.

Currently the suspension I'm running is as such- I've rebuilt pretty much all of it at this point.

Rear; New Belltech musclecar leaf springs-stock height Cheapo 25 dollar OEM spec shocks Rear drums-Stock?

Front; New Belltech lowering coil springs-1 inch drop New Classic Performance Parts Upper and Lower tubular control arms; Full new steering linkage except the drag link, power steering box, rag joint, and column. (All new tie rod ends, pittman arm, idler arm etc from proforged) OEM spec shocks (I seriously can't remember the brand on these; got them from o'reillys ages ago)

Should I/do I need to change most of this for a buffer engine? Or could I just throw on some performance shocks. new rag joint, disc brakes in the rear, and throw on some good traction bars? Or do I need to go nuts and do a 4 link kit, coilovers, and all that jazz? This is the first time I've really been doing high performance anything to a car, so I want to be safe/not break anything/hurdle myself out the window.

This isn’t just a fine looking 1968 Chevy Camaro SS/RS , which has been restored to its former glory, but also currently owned by nephews you asked who wants this muscle car to go to a legitimate Camaro fan who will appreciate this car for years to come.

For starters, the seller has given a complete rundown of all the upgrades as you can find below, but it’s enough to say that this Camaro was being brought back to show car quality and it shows from the images.

It’s obviously not going for a cheap price of $49,000, but you will have peace of mind that this Camaro has been lovingly restored to its original as possible ready for its next custodian.
