Rocket Man's 2008 Bagged CC Silverado Build AKA "THE MACHINE"

[George B]

Yeah after looking at prices it’s ok if it was a 2 door but twice what a 4 door in that condition is worth. I’m also looking at a square body C10 my neighbor has for $1000-1500. It would be a lot easier to build since I could just buy a frame for it from PhatPhabz.

I was going to say. You can get a pretty decent square for that kind of coin.

This is what I want to do...

No dice on the 4 door IMO.....and huge thumbs up to the C10! Get on it so we can see another build

4 doors for more ******. I don't mind the 4 door look.

C10 is cool too. Especially with a full frame.

I have a Harley-Davidson Night Rod custom that I will be selling to fund a build. I’m hoping to get 25 k out of it which should get most of it done but I need to wait until next spring because with the Covid, nothings selling. So right now it’s just preparation and dreams. I mean, I can buy the vehicle if it’s cheap but that’s it.

Is that going to be the build that has a ground-up LS build in it?

That’s my plans. LS swap with an engine I build myself, probably twin turbos. Bagged and bodied on a full custom frame. Something like this.

I got the Q Bond and glued the Dorman cover onto the new step pad. It seems real solid. Didn’t do a neat job but at least it’s holding and nothing leaked out the front. Just need to install it now.

Looks good from the outside--where it counts.
