Electric C10 – Ep.6 | Unibody C10??? Tesla Swapped Squarebody

This week we’re fabricating our unibody C10 cab for our twin Tesla motor truck! Welding the cab directly onto the chassis will give us more rigidity and road feel for our EV squarebody, which will help this truck’s handling and performance on the track! We’re also doing some bead-rolled sheet metal work to make the interior look sharp too! While we’re stiffening up the cab of this truck, we’re also making sure our C10 bed isn’t going to be flopping around in the breeze by welding up some sturdy mounts directly to the chassis. We’re using lasers to make sure that our bed is level with the body of our truck and then cutting and welding in supports to make sure that it doesn’t go anywhere while we’re pushing this truck to the limits! These steps are so important to our build because we don’t just want this truck to look cool, we want to make sure it’s structurally sound when putting down the power from our two Tesla Model S motors!
