1964 Chevrolet C10 Farm Truck! Amazing Budget Transformation!

[@MrGaryRoberton]

Back in the 1960's, my Dad told me our Government Department of Lands & Forests bought about 50 of these from 1964 to 66, All dark green, and eventually sold them off at auction after their miles got up there. Used to see them on the roads decades after, still clocking along, one tough old truck. A few folks here still call the color Government Green. Cheers

[@MortskeRepair]

Good stuff!

[@Freedomquest08]

Puddin is gonna have to step up his game to compete with that bucket fire. Cool old Chevy.

[@MortskeRepair]

Then he'll beat it to death playing it over for a month!

[@bigbenjit]

@@MortskeRepair completing this beauty in one vid is the best jab you can give Puddin. I think we are on like vid 5 of the Chevy he's working on now. But in his defence, even the motor in this truck is a big one for what he's used too

Man, that is one SWEET '64!!! She sits right, looks cool and purrs. Glad you took off the topper, makes her look better. That park ranger green with white bumpers - just a classic 60's look. 10K is a VERY fair deal for a great example. Thanks for all the killer content and the laughs!

Alright, Mortske, I'll bite; I'll boost this video on the KZbin algorithm. I do not, in fact, like slammed down trucks, but I also stand by the idea that a man has the right to do as he pleases with the things he owns. Not for my chief, but you do you and have fun with it.

[@dannyo6699]

On my 66 GMC, I kept the 15 inch rims it came with, and put 205/70r15's on the front and 255/70r15's on the rear. The 255's are the same diameter as the 235/75r15's it had so the speedo is even right. That gives it a raked front look like an old 70's muscle car. I like it.

[@MortskeRepair]

Thanks for the tip!

[@IR-nq4qv]

I like the analogy you made when pointing out the worn spots on the door where the guy rested his arm, I could visualize and see how the paint was worn over time. I like the fact that its all there and the truck was treated like a favorite pair of old shoes. You did some nice subtle touches on a budget to make it more desirable. I think the stance is perfect with just the right amount of rake. The asking price is well worth it for a runner with all new brakes and clutch for someone to have and enjoy as is. Good job brother.

[@MortskeRepair]

Thanks!

[@bradsmn]

The truck looks great! Those trucks were so dang reliable and fun to drive. I wish I could add that to my collection, but the kids need new shoes.

[@SuperMAZ007]

As you know im a purist on lowering things. But this is my second favorite pickup on this channel that I see looks more awesome lowered than the stock variant. Definitely looks much nicer than it did before lowering. Btw orange engine on a green firewall is actually a very good contrast. Loving it.

I remember reading that the epa stopped copper use because the dust was a pollutant that effected fish. I think it was salmon. This truck deserves some TLC.. give duff a big kiss on the nose.

[@_Dave_S]

Personally I prefer pickups at stock height but you dropped this one down to the perfect looking height. I also prefer long bed trucks, but I am probably in the minority there lol. It came out great, quite the transformation from start to finish!

[@freedomdog77]

I'm with you, leave it long.

Now that was a real winner of an episode! Really like the look. The price in the description is a bargain compared to what that rig would go for here (Nashville). I really enjoy these episodes with refurb of an existing, running ride. Hope you have a great holiday as well!

Hey mortske. Quick tip with the foam pads on the buffer. Take an air gun and blow out the pad in between panels when you are doing single stage ! Pads last a lot longer and you’ll get a little more consistency out of it ! Truck looks great !!

After 13 years of living in SD I can count on one hand how many guys I ran across that were into lowering a truck. Mortske, you my friend are most assuredly in the minority out in that country. Me being a Cali guy, I am in full agreement with you! There are more than enough lifted trucks with Busch Light cans in the back driven by fellas wearing Pit Vipers out there in. Keep helping offset the trend!!

Great episode, Morts! Me personally, I would put the truck back to the stock height and find a 292-6 to put back in the engine bay so it can do “truck” stuff. I don’t want want it to be status symbol like trucks are nowadays. Have a Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas Mortske and Duff. Here's why you are the man: like your other viewers, we have seen other channels. The vise guy is a man playing a role. He is not a good ole boy, has told his story. No slam, but actors act. Others do it strictly for the fame and income. Not a slam, I like money and don't give my restored willys jeeps away. But, you are honest, intelligent and show all, struggles and all. You also show you have vast knowledge of classics and "worthless info" lol. I am about your age, but only know about jeeps and fords, so your knowledge of chevys and other makes has really been informative to me. This is not my blog, lol, but I value your content. I first watched you, doing the video on trim on the old orange ford. I did cringe watching, but you were cool. So my nephew is a huge fan and calls you the boomer that sounds more Canadian than dd speedshop. (Which oh my god, guys like him is why my shop has to undo so much ridiculous butchery. I like him though) Anyway, continued great success and may you be the top wrench on the tube! Happy New Year too!

Hi Mortske, don't let them haters get on you. You gotta a lotta friends out here in the You Tube world. I thought it was interesting the brake box proclaimed the shoes "asbestos free". Maybe Chinese brakes always had asbestos and now it's like something new. I remember back in the 70's we used to just "hold your breath" when you're taking those shoes off or air blowing the dust around. Oh, the good ole days when safety was #3.
