IF I could do ANYTHING I wanted truck wise, this is what I would do/get and the approximate realistic cost (to the best of my knowledge - let me know if I'm off on anything - I don't have much experience with swaps, etc.):


1972 Chevy Fleetside C10. Available on ebay for $5-$10,000 depending on condition.

NEW 6.0l Chevy crate engine for $3,000

Magna Supercharger for $4000

Level 4 Tranny for $2,000

Detroit True-Trac rearend for $500

Labor for removal/install/motor mount/drive-shaft fabrication: approximately. $3000

Total cost for an 11-second bada$$ dream-truck truck that will stomp virtually any Corvette, truck, ricer, motorcycle, Mustang, Camaro, etc. on the road with 0 miles on engine and drivetrain: $22,500.

Extra for unforeseen expenses (THAT never happens does it...): $2,500
