[@DadbrosGarage]

Beautiful ride. I cannot wait to see the finished product

[@billybuilds]

You and me both!

[@poy8672]

It's bittersweet to see it driving, looking forward to the next vid

[@billybuilds]

It's been an exciting and a really fun project. Thank you for your support!

[@mrpesky163]

I like it, turn the radio volume knob to start it! Custom 😀

[@billybuilds]

Custom indeed! The only radio I need is that sbc! Did you catch the residential wiring nuts!?? Hahaha I'll get an oem style soon... thank you for watching!!

[@Werewolfman1966]

This thing is so awesome! love those tires on that beast. The carpet makes me wanna throw up tho, reminds me of some bathroom carpet in a house i used to clean 🤢 Cant wait to see more brotha!

[@billybuilds]

I think it is some old shag house carpet hahaha! Thank you for your support!

[@ramslures]

[@billybuilds]

[@THECHEVYGUY.]

Sweet truck my guy.

[@billybuilds]

Thanks!

[@Canadiancarguy1987]

Hey man great Truck you got there she looks pretty solid!

[@billybuilds]

Thank you!

[@jimthomas1989]

Your key is in the radio hole ! Looks like a real mechanic worked on that !

[@jimthomas1989]

And put an air cleaner on that carb.

[@billybuilds]

Thats great advice! It's been hard finding an air cleaner for the Rochester 2gc, hopefully I find one that fits soon

[@jimthomas1989]

@@billybuilds , put a four barrel intake on it or better yet , a small block 350 instead of a junk 305 , I got two 67s and one 68 , I traded my 70 for a 89 OBS Chevy Truck , The 70 had a 250 straight 6 cylinder and 4 speed standard .

[@billybuilds]

I like your style

[@alishaarnett6474]

Sweet ride!

[@GMCTIM]

That will be / make a beautiful truck brother ! Love those old Chevy p.u. ! 👍🏻 good luck ! ✌

[@billybuilds]

I love em too! Thank you

[@katieb777]

cool nice truck i saw she has a 350

[@billybuilds]

Appreciate it! Well I think a 305 from a 1980 caprice is in it now, hopefully one day I can throw a 350 back in it! Thank you for watching

[@mrsmel269]

sweet brother !!!

[@billybuilds]

Thank you buddy!!

[@1originaloutlaw675]

Drop a crate motor in that bad boy!!

[@billybuilds]

That's the dream! Maybe a junkyard 350 build in my living room is more budget friendly for the project though hahaha

[@1originaloutlaw675]

@@billybuilds i have an engine stand.

[@adamvollstedt5372]

The 267, 305, and 350 all used the same block. Just different pistion sizes and stroke length and compression ratios

[@billybuilds]

Good stuff to know, thank you!

[@jamesedmonds1350]

All it needs is an exhaust system. That way, you never have to worry about scratching it, or it being stolen. Maybe. 🤔

[@billybuilds]

Yeah hopefully never stolen or scratched because it looks like a pile hahahaha. I did install a exhaust system in my driveway, check out my channel for that video. Thank you for watching!

[@jpackard2723]

What wheels did you use ? They look good ! Backspacing, tire size ??

[@billybuilds]

Thank you! These are 6 lug 15x8" GM Rally style wheels with 4" backspace (factory stock wheels), they are off of a 1986 K20 Chevy. I painted them with Rustoleum hammered gray, and got some center caps from ebay. The tires are 275/60r15 Cooper Cobra. I decided not to put trim rings on, I like the look. I got the lugs and valve stems from Gorilla through Summit Racing.

[@jpackard2723]

@@billybuilds thanks for the response, I've been looking at a set with 3.75 backspace and was hoping it would work. The 85 K5 I have which I had planned on using wheels from are ten inches wide and even deeper back space so they were a no go. Really like the look so I'm gonna pull the trigger on these 15x8's with the 3.75 backspace. Thanks for the reply

[@brianyoung5204]

Blinks thingy and shift thingy ?

[@billybuilds]

Turn Signal Lever and Shift Lever, respectively. Also changed the indicator, pointer housing, steering column/turn signal harness, and transmission shift linkage there in the steering wheel and column. I got all of the parts from LMC Truck.

[@jimbobsvideos]

Are those original adult cold drinks on the dash.

[@billybuilds]

I found the Miller and Dr. Pepper can rolling around in the bed of the truck, they are from 1980.

[@bernandoturner4840]

💩.. anti theft… aint nobody stealing this😆

[@adamvollstedt5372]

Thats a 305 motor

[@billybuilds]

I think you're right, kinda what I've been thinking too
