We were out enjoying the C10 Nationals and noticed a patina 1966 Stepside C10 being hustled around the CPP Autocross course at Texas Motor Speedway. It’s always fun to see a weathered old truck driven hard, but what caught our attention next was who stepped out at the end of the run. It was a young high school kid with his dad (presumably) in the passenger seat. Was this just dad’s truck or wa...

This Family’s Tri-Five Takes Home the Gold; At least in Our Opinion
There are a lot of 1955 through 1957 Chevys that show up to the annual Tri-Five Nationals in Bowling Green, Kentucky—and by “a lot” we mean literal thousands. So to have just one stand out enough for us to give it our CPP Stop In Your Tracks Award, it has to be something special. In the case of this year’s winner, Jason...
For the 1962 model year, Chevrolet released an all new budget passenger car called the Chevy II. It was revolutionary and unlike any other car of the time (well, besides that other small econo-box named after a bird of prey). GM’s goal was to make a vehicle cheap enough that middle-class American households could afford a second car and that’s exactly what they did.

The original goal for this 1000hp F100 was big power and Pro Touring style combined with the classic lines of a Bumpside Ford. As such, Jason Scudellari of Huntington Beach, CA knew some Blue Oval feelings might be hurt in the making of his ideal 1969 F100.
The project started back in 2018 when Jason, head of the Research and Development Department at Classic Performance Products In...
These days, people are actually starting to appreciate the weathered look of classic truck that’s been around a while. The problem comes when you want to turn that vintage yard art into something drivable. Or should we say “the problem was” because now there are companies like Classic Performance Products Inc. (CPP), who specialize in making bolt-on parts to make classic cars and trucks dr...
At the last Quarantine Cruise we caught up with Will Estrada (@we_4lo) to hear about his 1956 Chevy 3100. After an unfortunate engine fire, Will took his truck to the next level, setting it on a full chassis from TCI and a CPP bed-mounted fuel tank.

Dan, that was something Vintage Air mentioned in the training... they used to be a few months behind after covid and supply chain issues but now their lead times are just a few weeks!
Last year, I wanted to buy a Vintage Air heating/cooling system for my 1953 Chevy 3100 pickup. There was a four month waiting period, but I had to pay the total price up front. I'm not going to...
