Our shop truck serves as a conceptual melting pot that manifested herself during breaks, before work, and over cold beers. We call her "Tiffany."

Tiffany is what happens when we give an old Chevy pickup—and our imagination—room to run. With weathered turquoise paint, an unmistakable stance, and metalwork that rewards a closer look, our 1966 Chevrolet C10 has a personality all her own. The project began when our fabricator, Scott France, offered us his truck, broken transmission included. We originally pictured a shop pickup for running errands, but a bargain LS1 and a growing list of ideas soon changed the direction. We paired the 346-cubic-inch engine with LS6 heads and twin Nelson Racing 64mm turbos, giving Tiffany a whole lot of power to go with her attitude.

We gave Scott creative freedom with the metalwork, and he went wild in the best way. Custom front wheelwells, a fabricated radiator cover, a new transmission tunnel, and a larger rear window were only part of the transformation. Relocating the radiator to the bed opened the door to even more elaborate fabrication, and Scott’s handiwork became a defining part of Tiffany’s look and charm. Our team brought it all together with front-fender exhaust outlets, custom front suspension, a Porterbuilt rear setup, and AccuAir air management over GM transport wheels. Inside, hand-stitched Relicate leather, custom instrumentation, Vintage Air climate control, and a Kenwood sound system make her easy to settle into. Every corner of Tiffany reflects the freedom we had to experiment, have some fun, and build a truck unmistakably our own.
