Roadster Shop built this 1976 Chevy C10 truck called “Urban Cowboy” with a 6.2 L LT1 V8 making 455 hp (334 kW) and 455 lb-ft (616 Nm) of torque. An 8L90 eight-speed automatic transmission and push-button transfer case sends power to a GM front differential and 12-bolt rear end with a Posi limited-slip differential. Roadster Shop installed their Legend Series chassis using a GM independent front suspension with a power steering rack, custom Fox coilovers, and Silverado 13-inch disc brakes. In back are Deaver’s leaf springs, Fox shocks, and Silverado 12-inch disc brakes. The exterior featuring two-tone Catalina Blue and white paint, chrome bumpers, and 17-inch wheels with 305/70 tires. The interior went to Avant Garde for a custom leather and Alcantera covering a custom bench seat. In front of that is a hydrodipped dash panel with Dakota Digital gauges and Squarebody Syndicate column holding an Alcantera-wrapped Roadster Shop Legend steering wheel.
