C10 Talk

Jason Berland has taken a skill and urned it into a true Craft. He has taken something that really was just a utilitarian object, the Chassis and made it nothing short of ART.  He build's and plumbs some of the sexiest chassis under any truck.  Keep up the killer work Jason and crew and thanks for letting C10 Talk stop by the shop, Ronnie. www.arizonahightest.com www.swagelok.com www.phenixindustries.com www.ceautoelectricsupply.com

@Nelllsterr and @Liam_GMC have a good think going. They have recently started a new shop "Kennie's Kustoms" and love working on old classic trucks.  Nelly Marie - remembers going to shows and swap meets with her dad when she was a kid and she shared her fathers enthusiasm. The passion was rekindled when she got a classic truck that had some fuel issues. Those fuel issues led her to Liam. Good people, Good Music, Good Beer, Cool Trucks! Life's good in Canada. 

Ryan Brutt is an automotive fanatic and loves, LOVES the hunt too. He hunts old cars (mostly) and some trucks that are lost, in barns - junk yards, or even up in rafters. Yep - Rafters!!  His enthusiasm and knowledge of the Muscle Car era is tremendous and he shares some of the journey with us on Episode #170.  Please take the time to rate the podcast and let us know how we're doing.  Stay safe out there C10 Nation.  Up next @nelllsterr and @liam_gmc - Episode #171  Thanks Ronnie 

Zaak Delbridge beats to his own drum and is totally fine with that. Zaak chose a 1962 C10 for his daily and then decided he would tear up the Hoonigan Burn Yard recently and winning the coveted "King of the Yard" trophy and the $5K purse SSS.  The story doesn't start or end there! Zaak lives life to the fullest and has been through a ton of shit. He knows every day is a blessing and lives his life that way. We're glad he's doing it in a C10!  Check him out - @the_hotrod_hobo
