Re: Show us your projects

Man I love the COE also!

I know this build won't be for everyone

Here's my build. I'm building this for my wiife. I have a real nice 3 window I plan to do for myself once this is done on a Z06 Vette

I've had this truck for about 10 years. My plan was to build it after my 55 BelAir. Well 6 years later my 55 is done. I built it on a C4 Vette with a LS1 6 speed and love the way it drives. So I decided on this for the truck.
I sarted on in about a month ago. First two weekends I stripped the 98 C5 Vette to the frame to get it ready for the truck cab. The Vette was bumped in the front with 68k miles. Air bags didn't even deploy but it did have a salvaged title. I narrowed the frame and sat the cab on it yesterday.

Started with this


To This


To the narrowed frame


And this so far. I will take 10'' out of the front of the bed due to the shorter wheel base of the C5
