Regulars around here will know that I’m a fan of desert off-road racing, which means pre-runners, trophy trucks, and the like are right up my alley. Ian Johnson is a fan of all those things as well, even though most folks know him as a rock crawling wheeler. But Ian is into everything off-road, and some things that aren’t, so this new project of his is really cool. If you are a fan of late model chassis swap, you will dig it. If you are a fan of OG C10 Chevys, you will dig it. If you are a fan of LS builds, you will dig it. If you are a fan of long travel suspension kits, you’ll really dig it. So check it out and let us know what you think in the comments section below.

Vintage C10 Pre Runner Build | 1960 C10 Body Swap on Silverado Chassis with Long Travel Suspension! 
Welcome to the ultimate DIY custom truck build! In this video, we showcase our Vintage C10 Pre Runner, a wild transformation of a classic 1960 Chevy C10 pickup truck sitting on a modern Chevy Silverado chassis. This isn’t your average resto-mod — we’ve built this beast with a long travel desert racing suspension setup, giving it the performance and stance of a trophy truck, while retaining all the retro style you love.
This is a full C10 body swap, merging classic looks with modern performance. Whether you’re into pre runner trucks, desert builds, or full-on off-road custom fabrications, this one’s for you. We walk through the chassis integration, suspension geometry, body mount fabrication, and more.
