OBS Clash E2 - Making a Splash

Presented by Belltech
In 1990, Belltech picked up a pair of vibrant Chevrolet CK trucks and with the help of designer Thom Taylor and custom painter Pete Santini, iconic trucks were born. From there, creative customizing blew up beyond bolt on parts with phantom dually trucks and sports car swaps.
Now, California Speed & Custom pays tribute to the retro Sport Truck era with a modern version of the first truck to use computer designed graphics that made waves across the industry.

My dad bought me a 1990 chevrolet silverado. 4.3 v6 5 speed. 700 bucks and wrecked as hell when I was 14. We put that truck back on the road and I still own it today. It's different now and he passed 12 years ago but it's my first true love. I will have it till the end. I'm now 35 in 4 days.

[@mayito2651]

[@AK-ic1yj]

[@johnbehneman1546]

[@a.trevino30]

Ohh man was that a run down memory lane.. so many memories of my father's time in the scene wow

[@chriscortez8052]

Man!! Please keep em coming. I could watch for hours. I love these trucks and the history is awesome. My dad had them all from an 88 short bed regular cab to a 2000 Crew cab Dually. Can’t wait till the next episode drops.

[@Blitz0065]

Love the presentation. I remember some of those Truckin magazine covers too. Nice knowing the backstory of some of these iconic trucks!!!

[@kieranpalmeira9748]

These videos make me happy. My pops had one growing up and i never saw it again, makes me want to bring it back where i’m from.

[@Will_my65gmc]

Cool episode! I remember seeing those trucks in the magazines! Definitely brings back memories!

[@fishpony1211]

Amazing! So much inspiration.

[@rockabillyrods83169]

You SIR got a sub... Funny thing I was cleaning my garage today and I found my truckin magazines & Sport truck from the mid 90's till early 2000 middle school & high school days. Then I get recommend to this channel about the OBS trucks weird and scary but it's cool that this trucks are doing a come back. I should of keep my 96 Sierra 5.7 vortec . Good memories from the 90's

[@turbominivan60]

Awesome video. I daily a 98’ 2500 regular cab long box.

[@TheTkrum]

Boyd should make a 22” replica of the 1999 lightening wheel. Best selling truck ever. Not many wheel choices tho. A 22” replica would be legit. 22x9.5 and 22x13 with the killer concave spokes 🙌

[@artysmotorsports]

You guys rock. It's because of you guys that Im into these trucks. My only hope is to influence the next generations to keep the scene alive 👍

[@TheBrownbear68]

I'm loving this series. great work

[@agustinmorales2096]

Love my ‘98 OBS

[@skeeter5283]

Great videos guys, I've been doing gen 3 swaps in these obs since 2010. Always had a love for gmt400 platform

[@Coursey1983]

Love it!!! Great job putting this together.

[@obs_vicc4145]

Awesome video!!! I actually got excited watching this. I love the 90’s sport truck themes. This is what I fell in love with as a kid nothing cooler than the pastel paints, camper shells and 17” billets ❤️

[@elwicho73]

This man made a culture!!!!

[@TheTkrum]

Still the only truck to make cover being all black, no graphics, to this day. The KMC Ford F-150 “Bofa” truck. Most iconic Ford from the magazines. The first vehicle ever to have 22” wheels and tires all 4 corners in 2000. Sponsored by Dunlop Tire and KMC. The story behind that truck and the sponsorships is insane. All from a phone call at 15yrs old, crazy.

[@FernandezCycles]

YES!!!!

[@deanm4138]

Love the series. I’ve got a 97 2door Tahoe 4x4 that was a show truck back in the day and now that I own it I’m going to put it back to it’s former glory it’s still has the lowering kit, the custom blue carpet the sound system and the super charger on it

[@LossaEngineering]

Killed it!!

[@modscustom1570]

love my OBS!

[@cesarcontreras4664]

The music takes back to tron era

[@andres93b]

this is so not my type of customization but man what a good job they do to have those amaaaazing trucks at the end. There is a truck for every taste of the truck entusias spectrum love it

[@rkmorgan2052]

Still have mine from high school ls swapped Dailey but just can’t ever catch up on the rest like suspension and all but I do love 20 mpg with the ac on and plenty of power to spare

[@mikewhite4541]

Badass video. Badass trucks

[@DG-ic1hg]

I love phantoms

[@kevinwilson7453]

Still have my 88 and still looks like it did back then .

[@juangaona1520]

Wish I still had my '96

[@alocal1334]

Great Video here! You guys were an inspiration for a generstion...should have brought in some of the models to show younger models how they did it.

[@MrOGVanni]

🔥🔥

[@brianthehedgehog4575]

Like a rock chevy

[@tjabdon606]

Found this by looking up my 92 Chevy c1500 sport. Trucks in descent shape but it needs the Boyd look and power . My dream is to have a daily driver and weekend truck and no prep drag racing machine. Don’t want to have the fastest

[@davidrutledge6033]

Im building a 91 s10 long bend in respect to the obs

[@rmdo5583]

I wish i had a set of Boyds for my truck

[@whofactchecksthefactcheckers]

I wished I never sold mine, i had a nice set of 15x10s on a 91 Silverado before I sold the truck to get my tahoe

[@dariog36th]

Luckily today you have vinyl wrapping. Makes applying graphics a breeze.

[@NolaH-sb4vf]

I had a 94 4 door dually 454 with 6” drop in front... 8” rear c-notch , air bags... painting ox blood metallic ....all I did was spend money on my truck....my dad kept telling me I was ruining my truck until he saw the final product

[@majorwilkesjr.5827]

Who is the outro music by ? I want to say Com Truise . You tell me .

[@docsake7891]

Lol, Drop shop did such shit welding. I had Bruce McCoy do my c-notch. Its a 1989 C1500 I bought new in April 1989 and had him do the c-notch in June 1989. I still own that truck today. I had to grind those welds and re-do them on a renovation aporx 2000-2001 range because it looked so hideous. I have original pics of the c-notch welds on my computer still.

[@nuclearknight8543]

I miss the 80s and 90s screw the 2000s

[@bigharrykochenbauls4567]

I don't understand why you guys are cloning the pink and blue truck, it still exists..

[@tomjoad8272]

I know it's not a big deal, but I still cringe a little when I see a frame on these trucks being notched. Lol

[@Blue_Thang]

Me too. I love the look but the thought of cutting the frame....

[@frankstefaniak4661]

It's not custom until you start cutting....

[@tomjoad8272]

@@frankstefaniak4661 oh I know. I know that a c-notch done properly actually improves the frame integrity. It's just that psychological effect I get when cutting that gets me. That's after having notched or helping notch several trucks.
