Saw this while watching the Powerblock,
Check out Daniel Dechert’s 12 year restoration project; a 1974 GMC ˝ ton pickup. After his truck broke a crankshaft on the highway Daniel was faced with a decision; crush it or build his dream truck. He wanted a modern looking street truck with big wheels but no lift. It’s got 46” tires, a 582 big block Chevy engine with a Kobelco 14-71 blower that makes over 1500 horsepower, but has be de-tuned to run on the street at @500 HP. The cab was moved back 8” from the front tires, the hood stretched 16” and weighs 100 lbs., the original 8 foot bed was chopped down to 6 ˝ feet, the cab was stretched 22” with no extended cab windows, the frame was stretched 8” and 4” fender flares were made. This is an all steel truck you have to see on The PowerBlock December 6 & 7. Plus you can now bid on several of our project cars on EBay. Go to the main web page for details.
