1972 Orange Crush build

So I got this truck a little over a year ago. I was always a BMW guy. I have owned my last BMW for 16 years and it was my first car. from the time I could drive till now I have owned 4 BMW's and have done extensive mods to them all. In the end I would normally build them up to flip to throw the money at a new one and some mods for my original car. All the BMW's were between 1985-1990 from 325i, 325e, 325ix, 318. all the E30 style.

So this leads me to the C10. I sold all my toys and decided I needed a muscle car. Everyone has 68/69 camaro's and i love that car it is one I will own one day. The other cars I liked were way two much money (gto, gtx, charger ex...) The only other car I have loved was the C10 ever since watching Dazes and Confused. So this is my truck story so far.

1972 C10 SWB
Engine 383 Stroker
700R4
20" Raceline Burst 5
ECE 4.5/6.5 drop
Sway bars

Pictures of the truck when I got it.










Suspension and rims on. Sorry for some of the small pics my cell phone sucks. lol












Next on the list is Pro performance C5 14" brake kit front and rear.

A special Thanks to:
Travis @ Az Properformance
Original-71 for rims help and hooking me up with parts, Thanks bro.

More Updates and Pictures To Come

BMW Love
