Joey Gonzales from San Manual, Arizona  - a small mining town just North of Tucson was raised learning the value of hard work and taking care of your possessions.  Treating people the way you'd want to be treated.

"Joey G" has proven that these values taught to him by his Grandparents, are instilled and part of the thread that makes up the man.

Joey's passion for Chevy trucks started early and he has't turned back since that same Grandfather gave him his first truck, an 1989 OBS.

We are glad he hasn't and we look forward to what comes next from Joey and the Bitchin' Crew.

I was fortunate enough to be able to sit down with Rich Downing (Program Manager/Engineer, Special Show Vehicles and Pace Cars) and Mr. Russ O'Blenes (Director, Performance and Racing - Propulsion Team) From General Motors while at was at SEMA - 2019. 

Man these guys are easy as cool as their job titles - No BS, Rad Dudes, just like us. They like Cars and Trucks (C10's) no different then most, they just get to work for GM and build really rad stuff there too. 

I bet it can be stressful, but these COOL Kats made it happen, they delivered the first E10 to SEMA - 2019. 

Its ironic that Tesla teased the world with their Tesla CyberTruck this week as well. It reminds me of the 80's arms race, just a lot cooler and peaceful, OK bad example, but cool shit is happening and these big players are making it happen.

Stylin Concepts was founded by Mr and Mrs Gary Case in 1987, and from there they didn't look back, because they couldn't  - they were so damn busy slingin them parts. 

Gary attributes his vision and "stylin" from his Street Rod days. 

The company was a huge success, making all era's of American Trucks look great and stylish. 

The trucks were so stylish that they needed a truck show to showcase these rad ass trucks and all the "Stylin Concepts" parts. So Gary started the Sport Truck Nationals, during the 4th of July weekend every year. 

The show like his company was a hit! 

Thanks Gary and Boris for the kick ass class in OBS history's past!

I just found out about Cody's situation and wanted to help. Cody is a 20 year old who has fought cancer twice in the last 3 years. He also loves C10 Trucks and has one that he is trying to get finished before he turns 21. With the help of so many great companies like GSI, Accuair, Budnick Wheels, Black Widow exhaust, CPP, Nitto Tire, and many more - the truck is well on his way and he is on the home stretch along with the help of the Make-a-Wish foundation. 

There's a catch, he would like to get it done before he turns 21, Nov 15th. Which is also the day of the infamous Git Down. 

Our goal is to help Cody, and the Make-A-Wish foundation to complete the truck so Cody can have it done before Nov 15th and if he wants, he can bring it to the 9th annual Git Down in Phoenix, Arizona. 

Damn Son!!

Solomon Lunger has a vast back ground for being in his mid-20's. Last month he was the photographer behind all three covers on the C10 Builders Guide, Street Trucks, and F100 Builders Guide. Amazing!

Solomon didn't start out shooting trucks, he actually went to WyoTech and was into Fabrication and building Hot Rods. One thing led to another and now he is a well published photographer in our scene, and runs a few very success Ford social media sites. F100 Era, and UnibodyUnion. 

We talk about his new job in California, working for Provost Motor Sports, and leaving Florida. The difference between East Coast and West Coast Truck scene and of course we talk Chevy vs. Ford. 

Solomon is a humble hard worker and I think we will be seeing a lot more of him in the future.

Thanks for stopping by Solomon, and remember - "Suck It Solomon!"

The Leaders in Automotive Air Management.

I spent a few days running around Barrett Jackson Scottsdale 2019 and grabbed a few interviews along the way. 

Dan Hogan - @hogieshine - sold two trucks, a 1964 C10 Longbed with 9.1 original miles "Lambrecht Trucks" and a 1968 K10 that was a completely fresh build Dan and his son built. 

Todd Carpenter  - @bigfishgarage - sold tow trucks as well. A 1986 K10 short bed - fresh build, and a GMC Crew Cab Dually with an "Indy Hauler' theme to it. 

Mike Blackwelder - @67patriach  - sold his Custom 1967 C10 

 

It was fun to see a few of the fellas throughout the week and there was no shortage of C10 Trucks (91 - on my count) this year at Barrett Jackson. The Top Seller was a 1969 K10 - that sold for $137,500 with fees. Damn Son!!

Cheyenne Lord invited me over to his casa and we laid down some Pod and a shit ton of rubber. 

Cheyenne is the proud owner of the Diesel Brothers, SM/CO C10 that was built on the Diesel Brothers TV show. 

Cheyenne has owned a few C10's along the way, and while watching the TV Show one day he got a hair up his ass and thought why not build a diesel C10 with this dudes. The rest is TV history. 

Cheyenne will be selling the truck this Saturday at Barrett Jackson in Scottsdale, Arizona. 

Will the truck sell for more then Cheyenne has in it? Well I guess we'll have to sit back and see how it all shakes out. 

I have a great time, thanks for sitting down with the C10 Nation Cheyenne.
