Vehicle Description
Known as "Cooked," this fearsome 1965 Chevrolet C10 custom pickup
is a state-of-the-art build with a Roadster Shop chassis. It's
powered by a supercharged LSA V8 engine with 926hp and a 4L80E
automatic transmission. It was designed by Tristan Pengelly of
Renderings by Tristan and built by Chris Cerce Customs. It was
featured in the first issue of Truck Hub magazine, which is
included. The floor was extended 4 inches and the cab was widened 3
inches behind the seat to allow for more interior space. The body
was laser-leveled and all panels were precisely gapped. The bed was
widened to match the bodyline of the cab. It was finished in
Porsche Carmine Red and the paintwork is exceptional throughout.
The tinted front windshield, vent windows and rear flush-mounted
window were replaced new. The front chrome bumper was narrowed and
tucked. The rear chrome bumper was narrowed, flipped upside down
and tucked. It's equipped with H4 LED headlights. The bed pockets
were filled and rear bed tubs were fabricated to accommodate larger
wheels. The entire rear bed was finished in Matte Red and outfitted
with authentic zebrawood imported from Africa. The fuel filler was
fabricated and concealed in the corner of the bed. It rolls on
custom 20-inch Forgeline Grudge wheels wrapped with Michelin Pilot
Sport 4S tires (285-30-20 on the front and 345-30-20 on the rear).
Hermance Designs designed the complete interior, and it was brought
to life by JK Automotive. The interior appointments were
fabricated, painted light brown and upholstered in Hydes tan
leather. The dash is home to Classic Instruments gauges, headlight
knob, wiper knob, ignition, Vintage Air system control panel,
RetroSound system and glove box. Some additional custom features
include a Ron Francis wiring kit, Flaming River tilt column, CON2R
2-spoke steering wheel, power windows, cup holders, wireless cell
phone charging station, USB ports, Lokar black pedals, German
square-weave carpeting and hidden map pockets. The highly detailed
engine compartment was fabricated and painted. The heart of this
C10 is a supercharged LSA V8 engine built by Don Hardy Race
Engines. The engine is a Chevrolet Performance LSA cast-aluminum
block with 6-bolt main, 4340 forged steel crank, 4340 H-beam rods,
Diamond forged pistons and Dart LS3 PRO1 280cc aluminum heads. The
engine was outfitted with a 2.9-liter Whipple supercharger and
Holley Dominator EFI system. The engine was dyno-tested and
produced 926hp. The engine was recently detuned to roughly 750hp,
which makes it more streetable. The engine specifications sheet and
both dyno sheets are included. The engine was dressed with
fabricated valve covers and a Billet Specialties Tru Trac
serpentine system. The engine is cooled by a fabricated radiator
with dual SPAL electric fans. The engine breathes through stainless
headers and a 3-inch exhaust system with MagnaFlow mufflers. The
engine is coupled to a new TCI Automotive GM 4L80E automatic
transmission, Circle D Pro-Series billet converter and 3-inch
billet driveshaft. The power is transferred to the pavement through
the new Ford 9-inch rear end with Eaton Detroit Truetrac
differential, Strange Engineering Pro-Series nodular iron third
member, 31-spline axles and 3.55 gears. The undercarriage is also
highly detailed and includes a new Roadster Shop Spec Series
chassis. It's equipped with a stainless fuel tank from Rick's Hot
Rod Shop, Aeromotive 340 Stealth fuel pumps, power rack & pinion
steering, front sway bar, tubular control upper control arms, boxed
lower control arms, Wilwood Pro Spindles, 4-link rear suspension,
Strange coilover shocks, Kugel Komponents master cylinder, Baer
14-inch drilled rotors with 6-piston black calipers and
power-operated emergency brake system. The engine, transmission,
rear end and suspension were finished in Cerakote Cobalt. This
truck has been completely serviced and detailed, which is
documented with an invoice that's included. From the MS CLASSIC
CARS Collection. ** PREVIEW
