Vehicle Description
The Diesel Brothers on Discovery built this C10 pickup on Season 3
over three episodes for Charity Air Ambulance and the company's
owner, Cheyenne Lord. Built to be driven and was driven to this
auction. The hand-built tube chassis with a cantilever coilover
hydraulic suspension and roll cage was engineered with a removable
floor, so the entire cab can be lifted off. It's powered by a fully
built LBZ Twin-Turbo Duramax diesel 6.6-liter race engine producing
an estimated 800-1000hp and 1500 ft/lbs of torque that can hold
60-80 pounds of boost. One custom-painted turbo emerges from the
hood. The engine is backed by a Dodge 47RE automatic transmission
with a shortened Dana Currie rear end, which is all exposed in the
truck's bed. Body has been shaved and molded. Post-show, the engine
was retuned for street and drag strip driving and converted to an
automatic-shifting transmission with a full rebuild. New
transmission hydraulic lines, air conditioning, motor accessory
brackets rebuilt with thicker steel to handle the engine torque,
new suspension hydraulics - and a line lock was added for smoke
burnouts, as well as countless other modifications.
