1968 Chevrolet C10 Crew Cab Lifted Truck Build Project

[@Suthyrnrock88]

Hi I am the original builder of this concept project. I am very grateful that this truck fell into the right hands . I have limited body fender skills. I had planned to build another cab. I dropped the top. Channeled the cab. 78 Crew frame two wheel drive. Crazy as it sounds three of us started similar projects in Santa Rosa California in the early 90s. All three projects became drivers. Mine was built for practical purposes. We went north with three kids to go camping twice a month. Crew cab 4xs were not available yet. So happy that you took this truck so far . I’m proud to be part of it.

I saw one just like this one but solid colored paint, here in payette Idaho. The salvage yard owner here has it, and the idea is very cool!!!

[@domstarkey7279]

Back in the day no body wanted a crew cab i thought about this for years also shame they didn't make them the right way anyway glad you took the time to but the driver side door looks great good job looks like to me

[@richardlinden4015]

What did you use for the door pillars between both cabs?

[@Suthyrnrock88]

@@richardlinden4015 These are built from Caryalls / Suburbans . A standard cab back is used. Holes in the outrigger actually line up, set your door or doors reveal. Minimum work required to change the rear door at the c pillar using a standard cab door. On this one the entire top was removed and lowered. This is not my video just thought I’d chime in. Still kicking myself for not finishing this truck.

[@richardlinden4015]

@Suthyrnrock88 thanks for the information. Breaking my head on how to do it without attempting to build from scratch.

Wow! That color is amazing! Anything but red! Sick to death of red! Love these old Chevys!

[@toranowatson7551]

It's amazing how much dedication went into this build and I don't care what motor you put in YOUR TRUCK IT'S YOUR VISION.

[@mytruckinlifeace4047]

I’m not a Chevy guy at all and I would drive this instead of any modern Ford.

[@waynestruckshorts]

Me too

[@jamesatkins3992]

Man that is a bad ass truck.good job guys💯🔥😎

[@billybunnell529]

Outstanding beautiful truck

[@reowhite4862]

Looks fantastic. The only thing I would have done differently is put a Cummins in it

[@kansascowboy5721]

That’s a beautiful truck! Nice work 👍🏻

[@mrgreyproductions]

Those seats look comfortable

[@wesleycooper7159]

I love this truck wish Chevrolet had built these. Wish i had the necessary skills to do this to my 69.

[@Suthyrnrock88]

They did build 1500 of these. The back of a regular cab will mate up perfect. You have to drop the top.

[@squarebodychick3772]

Subscribed!!! My husband and I are working hard on both of our projects also!

[@xibit2081]

Damn that took a lot of work to restore, but oh my it was sooo worth it, these old vehicles need to be saved or they will be lost forever.

[@juniorrackley2569]

There is a company that builds these special order the way you want and the engine and transmission you want. They are from $150,000 to $250,000 each I couldn't ever afford that but he started a company building them so there are plenty of people that can afford them.

[@rajcam80]

GM should have made that !

[@mustang8619]

You did a excellent job!! Most Guys would have given up. However , next time sand blast all the rust out of the body before you start metal fab.

[@lancetorres7437]

Hmm, that way it will be rusty again by the time you finish, good idea

[@mannyleon121]

My dream truck! Beast!

[@nathankoroush7918]

You got a nice truck there.

[@sethcarlson7616]

Nice build,I commend you sir for actually making the fourth door!!!!! I usually never leave comments, but I had to on this one, I can't stand the fact that gm used three doors instead four, gay!! The only thing I'll comment on is the chinsy Nerf bars, but other than that to each his own👍

[@joewho3691]

SWEET! 👍👍👍👍

[@danielsmith9500]

Wow. Such a amazing truck.

[@shanestriegel8289]

[@lelandharper2099]

Wow, that’s the most amazing truck I’ve seen! Other than the wheels lol

[@davidgross137]

[@peterhatch1583]

There's a place in Bakersfield California that has a kit for the fourth door this build

[@derrickodyes1934]

looks great, so much rot to deal with i would of lost my mind dealing with it and given up. Id would of gone 454 vortec loads more power than tbi and no diesel shake and stank forget the cummins

[@samuelclark9909]

Derrick Moyer the Cummins makes more power

[@bennyc6694]

Was this originally a 3 door suburban that was modified to be a crew cab before you got your hands on it? Wicked truck!

[@allana5930]

[@jbolin105]

Awesome job. The truck is gorgeous. Had to laugh at the beginning when showing the floor boards, haven't seen one of those dimmer switches for a long time.

[@jimmysapien9961]

[@DG-ti4qc]

NOT ENOUGH FOCUS ON FINISHED TRUCK!!!!!! Bit of a let down but F'ing fantastic job!!!!!!!

[@toddtrcka7960]

[@Suthyrnrock88]

This was the first mock up I intended to get a better cab.
