eBay Find: This 1970 Chevy Tuck Wears A C60 Nose And Rules Beyond All Measure


eBay Find: This 1970 Chevy Tuck Wears A C60 Nose And Rules Beyond All Measure

The guys at RTech Fabricatons specialize in customizing late 1960s and early 1970s Chevy trucks. They convert them to crew cabs and can basically build them to whatever spec you want, including a full on bad ass monster like this truck you see here which they have called the Drill Sergeant. Wearing a medium duty C60 nose on a pickup truck chassis, this truck is reminiscent of the famed Cyclops mud bog and early monster truck wars of the 1980s. It has 38″ tall tires on it and is finished to a very high level. The jerry cans set into the bed sides are awesome as hell and the matching front an rear fenders flares give us chills. We dig the way the bumpers were done as well.

Perhaps the best thing about this truck is the fact that it is not OVER done. The fit and finish seem immaculate and occasionally we will run into rigs like this that are done and finished to such a level that they are show queens that could never actually be entertaining. Hell, we would have no problem jumping in the cab of this big fellah and hitting the woods, the mud, or the local cruise night. For those of you that don’t know, the medium duty trucks from the domestic manufacturers all used the same cabs as pickup trucks from the firewall back. It was firewall forward that stuff changed with the different fenders, hood, and grill look. Making the sheetmetal conversion ain’t all that bad because the stuff bolts on but tying it all together like was done here with the running boards and stuff is the trick.

This is one tough customer and we think it is 100% BangShift approved. Wickam got us the tip for the eBay ad featuring this rig and we figured you’d love it as much as we do. This big fellah is cool!

    I was thinking the same. WHAT! a smallblock!
    pretty nice build, would have been perfect with a fat block and those “427” truck emblems on the dog house.

    “comes with very round tires” – liars. Bias ply tires are square, everyone knows that 🙂

    that sure looks, from the pictures, that it’s a longhorn bed (which makes it even cooler)….

    1. Rtechfabrications

      Seriously though, I drove this thing from Spokane to Phoenix at an average of 70 miles an hour. Trust me when I tell you they are round. Totally blew my mind. I’ve never had Tire that big they didn’t rattle you right out of the cab. These tires were designed specifically for one vehicle, and one vehicle only. They were designed for the marine striker units and made in France.

    Not sure if it’s a longhorn bed or not but it’s probably stretched if it’s not, the medium duty trucks have the center of the wheel well back quite a bit (why the rockers and doors and firewall are different) so unless they shortened the wheelbase they moved the cab foreward and stretched the bed five inches or so. Gas cans are goofy but otherwise very cool.

    1. Thresdoor

      The longhorn be has a seam, looking closer I’m sure it’s not a longhorn, may not even be stretched.

  4. Threedoor

    Looks like they moved the cab forward, the cab bracket on the factory light truck is behind the shackle mount, on this it’s infront.
