Golden Star Classic Auto Parts: A Game-Changer for Our C10 Build
Golden Star Classic Auto Parts: A Game-Changer for Our C10 Build
Andy and I recently had the opportunity to travel to Texas for an exciting visit to the headquarters of Golden Star Classic Auto Parts. The trip allowed us to tour their impressive facility and handpick all the parts for our 1970 C10 restoration. Known for their premium quality and perfect fitment, Golden Star specializes in providing high-quality stamped body parts and components, made at their own facility in Taiwan.
Superior Craftsmanship and Quality
One of the key things we noticed about Golden Star’s products is their commitment to producing parts that offer a flawless fit. Their parts are stamped and made with precision to ensure that every piece aligns perfectly with OEM specifications. They even offer custom parts to accommodate specific restoration needs—something we’ll be taking advantage of for our C10 project.
Stepping It Up with Custom Features
For our C10, we’re taking it a step further with a 4” mini tubbed bed and inner fenders to allow for wider tires, something that will significantly enhance the truck’s stance and performance. We’re also going with a smooth firewall to give the engine bay a sleek, clean look. Additionally, we’re getting a full cab and bed, along with a custom slant-back hood that features a cowl and heat vents for that extra flair.
The truck’s frame is also an essential part of this build, and we’re not cutting any corners. Golden Star is providing us with a factory-spec stamped frame to make sure everything is solid, durable, and as close to OEM quality as possible. We’re essentially building a 2024-stamped 1970 C10, taking advantage of Golden Star’s precision parts to ensure a top-tier restoration.
Complete Bodies for Every Enthusiast
One of the highlights of our visit was seeing the complete bodies that Golden Star produces. They offer an impressive selection, including complete bodies for 60s Blazers, VW Bus bodies, VW truck bodies, and even Bronco bodies—with and without custom modifications. Seeing these vehicles in various stages of completion really showed us the level of detail and expertise that goes into Golden Star’s products.
A Strong Foundation for the Build
As we move forward with the C10 project, we are confident that the parts we’re getting from Golden Star will set the foundation for a truly incredible build. The combination of their superior quality, custom options, and perfect fitment makes them the go-to brand for classic car restoration.
What’s Next?
We can’t wait to get started on the build and show you how all these parts come together! Stay tuned to our YouTube channel Maffett Motorwerks for more updates and behind-the-scenes action as we work to bring this 1970 C10 back to life with the help of Golden Star Classic Auto Parts!
