- Опубликовано: 27 май 2024
- Copperhead is a popular 1967 Chevy C10 build that starts from a stock cab and frame, adding a few aftermarket parts and with some work turned into an incredibly fast street truck that looks like a show truck!

I fell asleep watching yt and woke up to this vid
Bro no way..Same thing happened to me 😂
Omg same
Same
Same
Ive woke up to this video like 8 times now lol
I grew up watching him and Jesse Combs on Sunday morning. I love how easy they have always made these builds look. Working in a classic car restoration shop I can tell you they never go together this easy lol.

You can really see how old these shows were, Stacey is using corded power tools. He is one of the finest builders out there, a craftsman.
Don't mind the vhs tape
Not to mention the mere idea of a '67-'72 Chevy being inexpensive. True in 2002, laughable in 2022
When he pulled out the VHS tape for that paint education video, that also confirmed the age of this show 😂
And he's using nitrous instead of turbo or supercharger
this guy was my TV DAD growing up. he was so easy to listen to, and made me motivated to learn
Yes, loved his style. Now a days, if you don't have stupid ink on your neck, use disgusting foul language, and wear your hair with an obnoxious color and style, it seems you're at the bottom of the list.
The cool part about this build is that after they sold it, they caught up with it many many years later. It was still on the road and everything still worked and looked great. That a testament to his build quality on this project.
The truck is timeless. The mullet is timeless. Thanks for posting this build vid.
I used to love watching this show on weekends back in high school.
👍🏿
It was prison for me!!! Actually got in a fight over the channel one time over this show!
@@beatz_next_door85 hhjj look iio9oo9poo
Fun folk
Me too...late '90s
Talking shop with Jay Leno is hard to beat! He has one of the best vehicle collections out there, not only does he drive them but he also knows how to work on them!
I remember waking up early on the weekend as a kid to catch all these shows. Trucks was my favorite, and I thought the exhaust cut out was the coolest thing ever.
Hi Michael, I would like to invite you to visit my channel you would see cool stuff there. And let me know what you think.
Easily the best project truck Stacey ever built. I watched this when it was live and have thought about it from time to time. Awesome, I get to watch it again. Thank you.
So glad that YEARS later to finally see the entire build for this truck at one setting. Stacey David is a big influence to my gearhead teen self. Without his show back then, I could have easily thrown my money at drugs or "trouble" like my classmates did.
Much obliged for this complication. It really took me back
when was this on air originally?
@@ajohnson1066 I'm gonna say 2002-2004
@@pv2smurf Sounds about right
Never too late for drugs
Stacy David is still at it, Check out Gears
I remember watching this build wen I was younger 😂 I had to wait every Sunday to watch a episode
Just to have a truck that old with cab corners and rocker panels is a miracle if you're in the Midwest
Agreed. I can’t find one for less than $10k that isn’t a complete rust bucket.
Every time I watch these shows everything so clean just fits right together....not my world dirty dont fit cussing
It all eventually fits once you disappoint your ancestors a few times

Shhhhh
I've been inside a few of these shops where they film car shows, you wouldn't believe the amount of "tv magic" that goes on. They usually employ full time mechanics that do most of the actual work.
Wow, this took me back when I watched this on TV. Either on TNN or whatever the channel was called by then. Watching him take the truck almost brought tears to my eyes. The amount of work put into the truck and the results is incredible. I loved watching this show growing up. I am still driving the 2001 Chevy Silverado I took off the lot in May 2001 to this day and a big part is because of Stacey. Makes me want to keep the truck forever.
it took me back as well. Remember watching this on TV. It took me awhile to find him cause I did remember his name nor the shows name. Instagram, facebook and RUclips did not exist when this was on.
@@mura0 he has his own RUclips channel too
Officially the longest RUclips video I’ve watched and well worth it, now I just need to find a straight body for less then 10k
Thank you for making it easier to watch an entire build in one place without searching all over the net.

@@chaseware3181 Well in that case...Have fun watchin'!
are you and Scotty Kilmer long lost brothers. Both of you guys are awesome with Mechanic work!
Stacy gives a good motivational message at 2:25:05. We shouldn't get discouraged if our project is taking forever to come to fruition. We can't expect our project to be finished overnight, over the weekend or in a year. Things take time and money obviously. There's no rush. And we dont need to one up other ppl. Theres no shame in having a small block, using worn out interior or parts with different colors, etc. People will always judge. The project is yours! Make it yours. Own it! In the end, you and you only will get to enjoy your project and like Stacy said "Drive it like you stole it!"
I worked with a guy who had been working on 73 Camaro for eleven years!

Whoever puts these vids together deserves a raise! I loved this build, along with a few others, but I absolutely hated the wait times between episodes. Some of them were ridiculous. Such as the Buick Detroit has been working on lately.
😊😊
I remember watching this when it first aired on TNN power block back in 1998. My dad and I would watch the whole power block then NHRA drag racing on Saturdays. I'm currently getting dad's 1972 Cheyenne Super running. He passed away in 2017. This brings back good memories, thanks for uploading.
Not a truck guy, but this truck really opened my eyes.
America needs more shows like this. Teaching men how to be men, working with their hands. Instead of dancing and gossiping youtube channels.
Sadly that ship sailed. Young American men are more interested in playing video games in their underwear with their beastie sitting in their lap. They aren't interested in turning wrenches or learning a trade. Sure, there's the exception. But the majority are bed-wetters. Thats why the younger women are going after older guys. Theres no testosterone in the pillow biters their age and they'd rather be seen with a guy with some gray hair than a whiny jobless turd whose not sure what gender they are from day to day. Cheers
Loved watching Stacey David build this thing back in the day! Thank you so much for putting this online. Like quite a few others I used to watch the Power Block every weekend as well. Trucks!, Horsepower TV, Xtreme 4x4, and all the ones that came after. My brothers will tell you that when we're working on something i'll use one of Stacey's sayings "Now be prepared to spend a little time here" and "It's up to you to make this work"
100% agree Shane, I remember watching it every Saturday morning with my dad on TNT!!
Don’t forget wiper put your truck when you thuggery storms
I remember this show, watched it as a kid. Never saw a full build though, this is amazing. This and the other shows about working on cars were my go-to shows when I was like 4 or 5, cartoons had nothing on this.
This show is a classic literally the reason I fell in love with this body style I remember waking up on saturdays and sundays watching Power Block on spike
🔥🔥🔥Copperhead was the reason I got a 67c10 that I'm restoring
What you haven't completed it yet?
Makes me want to start one
@@alhart6665 by no means is it a cheap thing to do haha money is wat makes builds take awhile
@@justing9902 amen. I'm slowly doing a 72 Cheyenne Super
Probably gonna name mine black ice
This is Giving me "This Old HOuse" vibes, which I love!
This was the truck that got me into C10's when I was like 12yrs old! Also drove my dad crazy hogging the TV every Saturday morning to watch this build. Now the nostalgia effect makes this truck that much better
My son and I used to watch the Power Block before we took off our bike rides every Sunday...
I always watched him back in the day and loved every episode. He's so incredibly upbeat!
I remember seeing this on TV when I was a kid. Throughout the years it’s stayed in my memory. This was a really nice build.
Those custom wiper arms and blades sold me on this build. 😂 Never a rainy day when Copperhead hits the road~
I learned to drive in a '67 C-10 Stepside. 283 smallblock, 3-on-the-tree, factory air, no power brakes, no hydraulic clutch, and no power steering. This build sure does take me back ... GREAT JOB !!!
Thank God Kevin has his video out on VHS. You are a life saver Kevin!!
Momk
Kevin just did some paint work with VGG
In my opinion the most coolest and vehicle ever seen being redone
Stacie David built some of the coolest shit they've ever had on powerblock.
Thank you, my childhood hero, for all the cool builds you gave us. You really made it seem like anything and everything is possible on a vehicle for my young feeble mind.
Saturday morning Power Block was everything to me. That orange K1500 on tracks was a thing of dreams haha!
Who knew John Ritter was so knowledgeable about hot rodding old trucks?
🤣🤣
Jim belushi
So cool to see this. I used to watch Stacey building the Copperhead every week back in college. Stacey got me into trucks!
Magnífica maestría de mecánica en general
My goodness, I remember this show when i was a kid. Little did i know id be studying to do what he’s doing
Damn We only got a couple channels and that was one of them LOL real talk
Wow, I was just thinking about this build the other day. Copperhead was a major part of my childhood. I unfortunately never got to see the end of Sgt. Rock.
Sgt rock was the second best next to copperhead
Stacey never finished Sgt. Rock on Trucks! It took a while, but he finally finished him on Gearz. Episodes can be viewed on the Gearz site:

Nomen Meus oh okay! Thank you!!
@@robertdorne7128 😊😊😊😅
I’m I’m going going home home to to to go get some stuff
I went and looked up when that 572 was introduced, since this is the first time anybody saw it. 1998. This show is from 1998.
At 56:45 he says the Copperhead's color was based on a 2002 Ford Ranger color; he just added more metallic flake to it. So the show is from at least late 2001.
Its actually 2005 but the engine was given to him/trucks tv in 05 and the truck was built from 05-06
572 came out in 2003.
It was at SEMA in Las Vegas November 2-5 2004.
This might be the best looking truck ever built.
I grew up watching Stacy David on trucks, was my fav show om sat/sun mornings on the power block.
1940 Ford 2-door Coupe ( Fords better Idea, Powered by Chevrolet ) you helped and inspired me years ago, now I’m on the end of my project. Thanks Stacy.
I remember this show growing up!!! Not too long along a saw the episode where he found the new owner to Copperhead. That family has taken care of that truck. Love that truck!!!!
Best looking truck ever made PERIOD...had a couple
I miss this dude. I was 14 years old when I first watched it.
Finally complete build. Tried to watch builds on youtube and was always disappointed to never see the completed, or missing segments. This was great. nice to see a project where money is no object.
Yeah I used to watch Trucks waiting on a new episode. It was rough not seeing the final drive or finished project. Sgt. Rock was probably the worst build for the show. He got to keep and finish that one after they changed onscreen staff.
He has all the parts that he needs . To build the truck I. Have buy parts work On week ends the parts company gave him parts for the tv show. . He all day to work on the truck 🛻. That’s my opinion thank you 😊
I have a 1969 long bed, 350 engine, 3speed a.t., I've owned it since December 2000, with less than 100k miles, wish I had the money to get it done similar to the copper head, enjoyed watching the build !!!!
I don't even like trucks and I just spent over 2 hours watching this beautiful monster being built
I remember watching this.. horsepower tv was the best.. favorite parts of Saturday mornings
REM WATCHIN HIM BUILD THIS BACK IN LIKE 2001 2002 JUST AWES0ME
I remember watching this stuff on Saturday or Sunday mornings on TNN when I was a kid with my dad.
4:3 aspect ratio...You know this is old school. I remember watching this on Spike TV back in the day.
OMG I had a 72' 3/4 ton in 98 and I'm kicking myself for ever getting rid of it. Drove it in High school til I popped a valve spring and sold it.
I’ve always loved this truck accept for the door windows, the vent window built into the door was one of the things that made the older trucks awesome, especially when you didn’t have ac
And then the orange valve covers go tacky chrome!
Wow! Imagine being a mechanic and staying that clean.
If you ain't dirty you ain't workin hard enough
It's easy when everything's brand new
One of my top five favorite TV vehicle builds.... this one and crazyhorse particularly were the inspiration to me as a kid building my own project vehicles.
Agreed, but they'd left out a quite a few of the things that had been done during this truck's buildup
Took the fun right out of restoring, plus the cost will never justify the end result. Sad...
@@alhart6665 if it makes you happy the money will never bother you. People building vehicles like that know long before it's not something you make money on unless you're famous in the vehicle industry
@@karlsmith2570 I agree.... but then again it's a TV show that occupied a 30min time slot. You could make an entire season on just this one build and still some stuff wouldn't be there. This shows arent full tutorials though. If you see them as that you'll never like them.
What year was this series done?
Lol Stacy was referencing drifting way back in 1998. He's a true car guy
This was from 2003
Why do I feel so old now🧓 omfg this takes me back.
Watching this buildup 20 years ago inspired the 67 I finally got to build
I like the format of this build. I would love to see more like this. I saw a video of Stacey turning an 81 Camaro into a 70 Camaro clone. He never got past the front end and then the videos stopped. I'd love to see that build in this 2.5 hr format!!
I’d be happy with a truck like this with a 350 and a rhino lined bed. I’d use it.
This is an awesome show build/weekend cruiser though.
Australia need shows like these.
Awesome build, loved every second. Especially the end.. man I miss media like this.
Hey...It's the Jon Gruden of truck builds. Love that I could watch the build all at once. We can all dream can't we. Would need a custom suitcase compartment after my wife kicks me out and takes everything else I own.
Nope...only half 😅
Everytime Stacey says Early Classic Enterprises do a shot.
I died ☠️
@@victormgv l
M looking mmmmmm keep looking 0ppp0p
That truck it's worth every speeding ticket you will get love it great job
I remember this episode. I wished I was rich enough to do this. If I was that rich I'd have someone do it.
.
I'll say it again... I love the full build videos! If you make um, I'll watch um! Guaranteed! Beautiful C10.
Who was in high school and actually watched this when it came out? MEEEEE
I saw the original show on SPEED channel Saturday mornings. great to relive the build in 2:25:00.
Bro the original came on Spike tv lol. The 00's nothing like em.
@@ajatathemu I thoufht Spike was after Speed. Then Speed became FS1.
This was back in the TNN days… before Spike and Paramount… Stacy David had a show on Speed for a while called gearz…
@@patrickmckinney3646 I must have seen reruns on Speed then.
Honestly I woke up to this video on my phone since I sleep with RUclips on... now I am going about my daily morning routine with this playing as if I’m about to build this truck... bro... RUclips is awesome sometimes ❤️
ah the good days when a 600hp crate motor was gnarly and respectable. it’s surreal to think common horsepower builds and factory vehicles are regularly and easily making 700-1000+ compared to the days of stacey david building sick rides like this.
and the new chevy crate engine making 1000 NA straight out of the box
Ah yes, the Saturday mornings watching these shows! Great truck. If you have an unlimited budget, you can build a 67-72 Chevy truck with just a cab and frame lol.
quality presenter this guy. he doesn't miss a beat.
he even doesn that fake laugh thing all the pros do.
man I could watch this all day every day, where's my beer...
Two quality cigars and, well, some excellent scotch. Man I'm tired. Thanks for the complete video. Excellent build, excellent video. So close to finishing my car, haven't touched it for a month, this might just fire me up!
Beautiful work Sir
I remember watching every episode of building this beast
taking me 5 years so far to finish mine but then again it's just me doing all the work.
4 years going 5 myself. but i was working from frame up. body was too rusted. no motor basicially just frame and body. mustve been a part truck at a salvage yard or something before old man i bought it from got it.
That's the beauty of it...
Liar
I loved the burnouts and wildness at the end!!
Haha Staceys a badass. I use to watch trucks with my gramp I miss stuff like this big time. What a character!
I noticed how many “me and my Dad” references in the comments. . . . . Thanks Stacy ❤️😉👍
When Stacey is showing Leno the interior towards the end and he says "Oh, you got Cutouts in it" and Stacey just looks up with this mile wide smile and like a little kid goes "Yeeaah" made me laugh 🤣
The best show ever. Wished they hadn’t lost Stacy David! Built the greatest C-10 ever
Stacy david still has a show its called Gearz just as its spelled with a z at the end
Stacey left because he was in a disagreement with the show over crushing the vehicles he built. The show wanted them built and then crushed, Stacey worked a deal to buy Crazy Horse, Copperhead, SGT ROCKS and a few other trucks and they parted ways.
@@TheRoadhammer379 why would they want to crush the vehicles?
Check out the “Where are they now?” Show. He explains that manufacturers originally donated his project vehicles to the show, but that they wouldn’t turn around and sell those vehicles to the public for fear of being sued.
This is so well-informed information on how to mount a big block V8 and bodywork in a beautifully colored car.
This concept is about making the United States big and the leaders again.
I Remember watching this every weekend
Really fun to watch. I would have toned down the engine and drive train to suit my desired use. Also a bench seat. But that is the great part of a build like this, you can do it how you want.
I really enjoy watching these.🥰
me too man
I know this is an old Episode but what a Wonderful Build!
What was this like mid 90’s early 2000’s good stuff back then
Me: I need-
Stacey: Allow me to introduce EarlyClassicEnterprises
Out of business as of 01/20/2020...
Zack Smith recently heard they were out of business. We bought a ton of stuff from them back in the day!
“Drive it like you stole it!”
In my mind, always. Every car. Every time.
Even the lawnmower.
My mmmi mi mkmik uukkkmmm
Mmmm
Mkkkkoy; driving back home 🏠 right here
Wish you would have recorded a 1/4 mile time, instead of 300 ft. black marks that mean little. Love this build, and you're my favorite builder.
Those mean everything on the street. Its not a drag truck.
@@KingJT80 yeah that means that you likely lost the race by 300 feet on the street. Its a beautiful truck and cool build but street or strip its just a smoke show. If you cant hook up that rear end you've lost before you started,.. "on the street"
@@thunderbird885cc again it's not a drag truck. Just a truck to have fun in and it's on hard tires those are hard to hook up.on but can be done
pretty sure on slicks it's would run pretty good
That is a great project, being able to do it right with price cost not a problem. Good job, I'm very envious.
I had a 72' C10 Shortbed I inherited from My Brother in 1982.
It had a 307 3sp column, both worn out and massive body damage when I got it. I rebuilt the trans, put in a heavy duty clutch with B&M floor shift kit and swapped a 350 30° over with a mild 260 cam & a Holley 4bbl Economaster and some cheap Blackjack Headers with Thrush Turbo duals ran short with 2.5" pipes.
It would do 3rd gear burnouts.
I wish I would've kept it.
I sure would have loved to see a video like this of the "Hairy Hauler"- the best thing you never finished. You were so close to completing it, I don't understand why we never got a "payoff" episode.
Forget the reason I searched many moons ago for the same answer found it but don't remember the exact reason but I think he wanted to do his own thing.
I know he separated with tnn/spike because he got tired of builds that got crushed after payoffs.. he started paying builds out of pocket and thru product placement..
@@patrickmckinney3646, yeah Stacey own Sgt Rocks, crazy horse, Copperhead and I think wicked willy. He was tired of the producers wanting projects crushed and they parted ways
@@TheRoadhammer379do you know what build the tan Monster is that Stacey walks past at 24:39?
This build and watching all the cool stuff Stacey added to this truck is why I started following his builds. He’s an amazing builder and I hope he keeps going with Gearz! Thank you #StaceyDavid
this is a Beautiful truck hats off the designers and builders!!!!
Grew up watching trucks with Stacy David every weekend
