1973 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Upgrades at the V8 Speed and Resto Shop V8TV

1973 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Upgrades at the V8 Speed and Resto Shop V8TV

This 1973 Chevrolet C 10 pick up truck came to the V8 speed and Resto Shop for some …suspension refinements and more power from an engine and transmission swap. The biggest part of the conversion was performing a CPP rear “C” notch and four link suspension system, which utilizes coil over shocks for better adjustability, more precise suspension control than the stock leaf springs, and a more comfortable lowered ride height. The front suspension was treated to tubular control arms and coil overs, also from CPP. Upgraded brakes and oversized YearOne rally wheels complete the stance.

Power has been upgraded through the use of a Blueprint Engines 435 horsepower 383 stroker Chevrolet V8, which comes complete with a Holley Terminator X fuel injection system, serpentine front drive system, and a 700 R4 4-speed Overdrive transmission. We fabricated a complete custom exhaust system with mandrel bent stainless tube and MagnaFlow mufflers for great flow and sound.

Once installed, detailed, and tuned, our team installed some new gauges from Classic Instruments along with A Vintage Air A/C system to update the C10 interior.

The truck now looks, drives, and sounds 100% better than it did when it came in.

Pro-Touring 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Supercharged LSA Swap at V8 Speed and Resto Shop V8TV Part 2

Pro-Touring 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Supercharged LSA Swap at V8 Speed and Resto Shop V8TV

This Pro-Touring 1968 Chevrolet Camaro came to the V8 Speed and Resto Shop wearing fresh paint, but …the owner wanted some performance upgrades to match. The task is to install a supercharged LSA engine and a Tremec 6060 6-speed manual transmission, all without hurting the new paint. The V8 crew is also adding all the needed cooling, fuel, and electrical system upgrades required to make it all sing.

In this video, we get the under car tour, discussing the full Ridetech coil-over suspension system, hydraulically boosted Wilwood brakes, 18″ Forgeline GAC3 wheels, and the mandrel-bent, custom-fit stainless steel exhaust system for the car. The exhaust tubing came from Magnaflow, with Doug Thorley exhaust cutouts, a Magnaflow X pipe, and Corsa mufflers.

One challenge was to route the 2.5 inch stainless exhaust all the way out the back of the car without interfering with the Ridetech coil-over rear 4-link suspension system and fuel tank without cutting the trunk floor.

We’ll be posting update blogs along the way as we complete this Pro-Touring 1968 Camaro!

The V8 crew is also adding all the needed cooling, fuel, and electrical system upgrades required to make it all sing.

Cooling is handled by a C&R Radiator and coolers, and the cabin is cooled by Vintage Air. Under the car lives a full Ridetech coil-over suspension system, with hydraulically boosted Wilwood brakes. Our team is building a full mandrel-bent, custom-fit exhaust system for the car.

Tasks included notching the subframe to fit the LSA and the factory accessory drive system, and fabricating a custom smooth firewall and hydraulic clutch master cylinder mount, fabricating a and custom air intake system. Ringbrothers billet hood hinges support the modified hood, which was re-structured to clear the supercharger housing.

Restored 1955 Ford F100 Feature Video at V8 Speed and Resto Shop

Restored 1955 Ford F100 Feature Video at V8 Speed and Resto Shop

This restored 1955 Ford F100 pickup was restored by the owner’s father, and came to the V8 Speed and …Resto Shop for some upgrades to make it more enjoyable to drive.

The mid 1950s saw some evolution of the pickup truck, and this clean 1955 Ford F100 is a great example. In earlier years, trucks were sold purely as working machines. But as Americans enjoyed the prosperity of the 1950s, the automakers saw the need for trucks to offer comfort and style in addition to being able to clock an 8 hour day.

This handsome 2-tone ‘55 F100 came to visit the V8 Speed and Resto Shop for a couple upgrades after the owner’s father completed a full restoration on the truck. He pulled it out of a ditch and turned it into what you see here, doing some very impressive work. Since completion, it developed a couple leaks and the owner wanted us to add a power steering system from Classic Performance Parts to make this rig a bit easier to drive. We also added a new set of white whitewall tires.

The ‘55 F100s were sold as the “Money Makers” with “Triple Economy”, which included fuel efficiency, a large payload capacity, and the new “Driverized” cab equipped with conveniences to allow the driver to save time and reduce fatigue, thereby doing his best work, according to Ford. We suppose that makes sense.

This one features a later 292 cubic inch Ford “Y” block V8 engine in place of the standard “cost clipper” 118 HP straight six. In ‘55, Ford named the optional V8 the “Power King”, which was 239 cubes and boasted 132 horsepower and 215 lbs. ft. of torque. The 292 in this truck dates to 1959, but looks just like an original ‘55 Power King, but with a few more of the King’s horses to pull it along.

These are good engines, with wedge-shaped combustion chambers, overhead valves, and a short stroke to ease long-term fatigue on internal parts.

Inside, the “Driverized” cab looks mostly original with a big puffy green seat and thin, large diameter steering wheel. There’s heat for comfort, and a 2-50 A/C system – when both windows were rolled down on the highway. The only deviation from stock is the addition of a digital dash display and the 8-ball shifter on the 3-speed manual transmission.

The Meadow Green and Black 2-tone paint scheme looks great, and the wide whites, matching rims, and polished caps provide just enough accent to keep it visually interesting. The red in the badges is like a cherry on top.

It’s a great driving truck, and we’re happy for the owners to have a family heirloom to drive and enjoy as they create more memories for years to come. If you’ve got an old car or truck that could use some love, you can reach us at v8speedshop.com and we’re happy to help keep it on the road!

1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Big Block 5-Speed Upgrades Feature Video V8 Speed & Resto Shop V8TV

1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Big Block 5-Speed Upgrades Feature Video V8 Speed & Resto Shop V8TV

We recently did some work on this clean 1969 Chevelle for a cool customer who’s …become a good friend over the years. The car came to us with most of the pieces in place, but just not playing that well together. In fact, it’s been a repeat visitor over the years getting better upgrades each time.

The first time, we did some driveline repairs, but the fun project was creating and installing a custom contoured firewall we made in our fabrication shop. It was made from 18 gauge cold rolled steel, and the design added strength and a style that didn’t look out of place on the Chevelle. Once that was body worked and painted, we moved on to the engine.

It originally arrived sporting a crate big block Chevy, but we eventually installed a Fast Times Motorworks built 460 cube torque monster for more laughs from the right pedal. This one started as a 454 with a 4-bolt block, but was bored and stroked to 460 cubes with Scat I-beam rods, Keith Black pistons, and ARP hardware throughout. The top end relies on a Howard’s roller cam and Edelbrock heads and intake inhaling the mix from an MSD Atomic EFI system.

It’s bolted to a Tremec TKO-600 6-speed manual transmission shifted by a Hurst stick and a hydraulic clutch for smooth action. We installed 3.55:1 Motive gears in the 12-bolt housing along with a Detroit TruTrac differential for better grip. We love the sound of a rumbling big block through the stainless x-pipe Borla mufflers.

Handling is improved with a QA1 tubular coil-over suspension system up front for adjustability, a nice ride, and a lowered stance. The upsized QA1 sway bar resists body roll when you whip the Grant steering wheel and Delphi quick-ratio steering box around. The rear is hung with more QA1 coil-overs, tubular arms, and sway bar. We added Wilwood disc brakes all the easy around, which hide behind 17” Rocket Racing Booster wheels. The calipers are squeezed by a Hydratech hydraulic brake assist unit.

Inside, you’ll find Dakota Digital Gauges, a tilt steering column, Scat seats, and a Vintage Air A/C unit with its compressor and belt held in place by a Vintage Air Frontrunner serpentine accessory drive system.

The Chevelle wears a handsome shade of metallic charcoal gray, but it really came to life when we added some custom-made silver SS396 stripes to the sides. It’s a sharp car that drives like a champ.

You can see more photos of the work on this one by clicking on the link in the description, and please don’t hesitate to contact us if your muscle car needs some upgrades, tuning, or a complete do-over… we’re happy to help!

1968 Chevrolet Camaro LS3 Restomod Interior Upgrades and Driving Video V8 Speed & Resto Shop V8TV

1968 Chevrolet Camaro LS3 Restomod Interior Upgrades and Driving Video V8 Speed & Resto Shop V8TV

This great looking 1968 Chevrolet Camaro LS3 Restomod came to the V8 Speed and Resto …Shop to fix some tuning issues and to have a new custom interior installed. The plan was to modernize the door panels with some Fesler pieces, and custom design and build a center console to house the Vintage Air A/C controls, the power window switches, a pair of stainless cup holders, a double-din audio system, USB power, and the Tremec T56 6-speed shifter.

The V8 Speed and Resto Shop interior department completely designed, built, upholstered, and wired the custom console before installing it in the Camaro. The Fesler door and rear side panels were upholstered in matching black vinyl with a corresponding hounds-tooth insert to match the Camaro’s seats.

Before the car was complete, our team identified that the roof skin was rusty and improperly installed, so the V8 Speed and Resto Shop Fabrication Department went to work removing the old skin, repairing the rust, and installing a new piece. The V8 Speed and Resto Shop Body Shop finished the job and painted the new roof with a black industrial coating, then the Interior Shop installed a new vinyl top.

The LS3 1968 Camaro makes great power, and is a real blast to drive. It’s got some great parts on board, with Wilwood brakes, Bonspeed wheels, and a Chevrolet LS3. We’re excited to see this 1968 Chevrolet Camaro rolling down the road, and the owner is looking forward to making more memories on road trips with his restomod Camaro.

1971 Chevrolet C10 Performance Upgrades Completed Video V8 Speed & Resto Shop V8TV

1971 Chevrolet C10 Performance Upgrades Completed Video V8 Speed & Resto Shop V8TV

This 1971 Chevrolet C10 Cheyenne is a former work truck that is getting some great performance upgrades, but …keeping the weathered look at the V8 Speed and Resto Shop. This 1971 C10 is very special to the owner, as it belonged to a close family friend and has been a part of his life since the late 1980s. We showed you how this truck looked when it came into our shop, and Today, it’s ready to be put back in service!

The recipe called for the 71 C10s cab and bed to be lifted off the frame, and then the chassis was disassembled, media blasted, and powder coated black. All new suspension bushings, ball joints, tie rod ends, and other wear parts were installed, along with a complete differential and rear gear rebuild.

Power comes from a 383 stroker Chevy V8 engine, with a hydraulic roller cam, roller rockers, aluminum heads and intake, and a Holley Sniper EFI system making 430 horsepower. It’s bolted to a built 700R4 overdrive automatic transmission for smooth highway cruising.

The suspension is new with lowered spindles, springs, and shocks, and the ‘71 C10 now rolls on 20” Detroit Steel wheels for a modern look. Ned bed wood completes the look.

Inside, the V8 Speed & Resto Shop interior department restored the original interior to look brand new. We recovered the seats in the original Cheyenne pattern, upgraded the dash with new Dakota Digital gauges, added upgraded audio, vintage air a/c, cruise control, tilt steering… all things you’d expect in a modern truck. Plus, a secret exhaust cutout switch turns up the volume on the 383 at will!

We’re excited to see this 1971 Chevrolet C10 Cheyenne rolling down the road, and the owner is looking forward to making more memories with the old friend of a truck.

1979 Pontiac Trans Am Supercharged LS3 Swap Upgrades at V8 Speed and Resto Shop

1979 Pontiac Trans Am Supercharged LS3 Swap Upgrades at V8 Speed and Resto Shop

This clean 1979 Pontiac Trans Am came to the V8 speed and Resto shop in need of …some major performance upgrades. The car was born with an anemic Oldsmobile 403 V8 engine coupled to a 3 speed automatic transmission. We did an initial dyno run to find it only made 168 horsepower at the rear wheels, which might have been okay for 1979, but definitely not cool for today. The answer to this problem lies in the form of a Edelbrock supercharged Chevrolet performance LS3 V8 backed by a 6-speed T56 Magnum transmission.

The car has already had some suspension upgrades with some cool parts from Hotchkiss, but we are going to install the new Powertrain and dial-in the suspension to make sure the car handles all that Newfound supercharged power. The E Force supercharger relies on an upgraded camshaft from Comp Cams, and is capable of making over 800 horsepower running on E85 fuel. We will be sharing complete build and final dyno videos of this car once the transformation is complete.

If you’ve got a classic, muscle car, Resto Mod, Pro Touring, or Pro Street car that needs some love, we’re happy to chat about it! You can reach us at http://www.v8speedshop.com today.

1968 Chevrolet El Camino SS 396 L78 Restoration at V8 Speed and Resto Shop

1967 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova Restomod Upgrades at V8 Speed and Resto Shop V8TV

1967 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova Restomod Upgrades at V8 Speed and Resto Shop V8TV

This clean 1967 Chevy II Nova came to the V8 Speed and Resto Shop in need of …some mechanical help, and our crew performed a lot of upgrades and repairs to this cool yellow cruiser.

The Chevy II Nova was targeting other smaller entries into the American car market, and by 1967, the car’s capabilities expanded to offer a 327 V8 and a Super Sport package. This one had a V8 that was beginning to knock, so the V8 crew installed a new Fast Times Motorworks built 361 cubic inch Chevy short block (4.065” bore by 3.048” stroke) for some added power. The engine is topped with AFR heads and an aluminum intake manifold, and is fed by a FiTech EFI system for smooth, reliable operation.

Behind the new engine is a 4-speed Muncie manual transmission, with a Hurst shift handle that pokes out of the floor, as this is a bench-seat 4-speed with no console. It is basic, and cool!

The suspension has been lowered with parts from CPP, but the car retains its manual steering and brake systems. The oversize Chevy Rally wheels look great against the Butternut Yellow paint. It’s a cool restomod that loves the road!

If you’ve got a Nova that needs some love, we’re happy to chat about it! You can reach us at http://www.v8speedshop.com today.

1968 Shelby GT500KR Convertible Restoration at V8 Speed and Resto Shop V8TV

1968 Shelby GT500KR Convertible Restoration at V8 Speed and Resto Shop V8TV

This 1968 Shelby GT500KR 4-speed convertible is a very clean car, and a pretty rare specimen of the breed. … There were 4450 1968 Shelbys built in total, with 318 convertibles, and far fewer wearing Medium Blue and sporting a 4-speed manual transmission behind the Cobra Jet 428. This particular car was treated to a restoration at some point, but there were some details that the owner wished were nicer, so it came to visit the V8 Speed and Resto Shop.

The original, numbers-matching 428 Cobra Jet engine is rated at 335 HP, but they’ve always been rumored to create more in reality. Under rating engines was becoming commonplace in the late 1960s, as auto insurance rates skyrocketed with higher horsepower numbers, so automakers began to fudge the numbers a bit to make the cars more attractive to buyers who didn’t want a high insurance bill. These saw 335 HP at 5400 RPM, but modern dyno testing on stock-spec engines show they easily tickled 365 HP.

This engine didn’t seem to make the power it should, so after an in-car diagnoses, it was pulled and sent to Fast Times Motorworks for a tear-down, inspection, and re-fresh. While the engine was out, it was obvious that the engine bay required some attention to make it not only look nicer, but also to be as correct as possible for a ‘68 GT500KR.

While the existing paint was being stripped from the firewall, the V8 team noted some hidden rust repairs down low and in the floor, so a plan came together to perform an under car restoration as well as under hood.

We’ll share more video of the completed job when the restoration is complete!
