so glad the c10 is finally getting some mods! its such a cool and unique build for your channel and I'm excited to see it! still love the orange too

[@Jon64scale]

The Drift Queen of The Compound giving us some truck content let's go can tell your stoked and the C10 is coming out sick cant wait to see more great work 👍

[@laurenschenck5355]

C10 tuck looks amazing can’t wait to see the finished product at the end ❤😊❤😊❤

[@Bruiser7528]

Your truck was a factory column shift that was converted to a floor shifter and they kept the original column instead of swapping it out

[@ColleteDavis]

Had no idea! Ha

[@austinmiles7360]

I have been waiting for this for so long!!!!! Lets freaking go!!!! Whoop whoop 💥

[@Joseph-xx3rz]

My first vehicle was a 68 C20 farm truck. It was the most amazing first vehicle. Now building a wild 82 s10. Trucks make the best resto mod projects. Great build.

[@riverratt8626]

Love that your back working on the C10, I have a 67 C10 with a 3 inch roof chop and flip front end & a 1972 GMC 4x4 Sierra Grande

[@r3sp3ct4all4]

I'm sure you could move a lot of chickens with that thing!

[@ColleteDavis]

I sure can! Haha

[@Crispy1320]

I can't wait to see what it looks like and how much more comfortable you're going to be behind the wheel once you put the Collete Davis touch on it.

[@L3_Media_Group]

I have always loved this model; the 67 - 72 is my all time favorite vehicle. My first car was a 69 C10 but I have had several, along with a 67, a 70, and a 71; I have, also, owned Chevy and GMC, in this body style. I have even had a custom plan for one, for over ten years. I hope to get started on that, soon, now that I am retired.

[@KSwapTheWorld69]

Follow me if you want a 69 c10 the world isn't ready for 😎 Im getting the ducks in a row right now.

[@L3_Media_Group]

@@KSwapTheWorld69 My plan is the same. No one has ever put the ideas together, that are my goals. Some have tried parts or pieces but I can't find them all in one early model truck ...... It was, definitely, never a factory option. Mine is just taking a while to get things in order. It looks like it will be self funded so I am researching and evaluating every option to be sure I am getting all the best.

[@KSwapTheWorld69]

@@L3_Media_Group right I have to fabricate everything for my plans 🤷🏽 I hope yours turns out great! 😄

[@L3_Media_Group]

@@KSwapTheWorld69 Thanks. If I ever get the parts together, I will be posting the build.

[@EvolKitten89]

Beautiful truck. Can’t wait to see more and it’s fun to watch when your as excited about the project as you are with this C10 🎉

[@nametooshortt]

Always has been my favorite generation of trucks. My first car was a '68. Keep the content coming.

[@rileyalexander5372]

Good to see the vette in the background but sad its gone as the paint job on it was mint

[@ColleteDavis]

I know :( I’ll paint another one!

[@rileyalexander5372]

@ColleteDavis can't wait to see how the BMW will be done. Seriously, your paint skills are next level. Good luck for next season drifting, and I hope we get to see you in FD in a few years battling adam

[@TheWhiteEvo]

I love how excited you are about this build! Cant wait to see it finished!

[@A.Miata.Enthusiast]

Can't wait for the Miata build. C10 is sweet also.

[@japstalgics86]

Hell yea! Sweet truck. I have a 81 c10 here in tampa.

[@jeraldhite9744]

Great work I like the upgrades. The floor wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.

[@BassManBobBassCovers]

Those are some serious mods! Should make a huge difference!

[@sn95_mustang_garage]

Truck videos will always do well on KZbin because people can relate versus a drift car. I remember the Dodge Viper Truck videos had lots of views. They were very good.

[@KeathUon]

Pup says, “put me in the 2JZ momma.” 🏁

[@unavailable8681]

Here's me thinking the floor ain't that bad, as I'm always watching DD Speed Shop videos. 🤣Floor Pan Dan would probably have that sorted in an evening. Looking forward to the rest of the C10 Content! 😁

[@michaelyohn3053]

That is my favorite year of trucks.

[@ShillingBH]

Chop the pillars to lower the roof and/or section the frame to bring the body down. Ooweee

[@MrCabreric]

The whole time you were starting the truck I was like pump the gas lol

[@lachcav9885]

Awesome video Collete. Can't wait to see part 2

[@alanmoncus2331]

Just proud u'r keeping it manual, I like an I6 3 on the tree, but it's just way too slow for modern conditions 😊

[@MX304]

Those arms on the bottom of your stock column are for a three speed column shifted manual. You truck was four speed swapped at some point, or that column was swapped in at some point.

[@arthurbrickley4108]

"Three-on-the-tree" colum shifter!

[@emiller7040]

Poor Pete, he said "mom, do something about that damn clutch before you hurt me!"

[@allanespiritu3]

Hell yeah, C10 time! Honestly thought it was going to be back on the channel when you had Lacey on

[@ColleteDavis]

Miss her. !

[@ColleteDavis]

She’s my truck inspo 🫶

[@davidcosta3313]

Hi Collette great job on the video thank you for everything you do your the best 😍

[@burnzie318]

Considering that the truck cab is as rotted out as it is (and not just the floor), you might want to consider getting another truck cab. You could try finding a used one in good condition or buy a new one. Dynacorn Classic Bodies sells brand-new reproduction truck cabs. I checked the price on it and it's like $9,000 which is a bit steep, but at least you'd know that you're getting a brand-new cab. Either way I'm excited to see the rest of the build and can't wait to see how the truck turns out.

[@timmorin69]

I couldn't tell if you were pumping the gas or not to try to start the C10. If you were not, when the truck has been sitting more than a couple days, give it 5 or 6 pumps of the throttle before cranking. Crank for a few seconds, if it still doesn't start give it a couple more pumps then try again. Should fire right up after that. Carbureted cars need a little coaxing to start. If it's only been a day or two, two pumps and crank it over. Great video as always!!

[@UserName-pg8cv]

Collete I would recommend getting a Holley terminator efi system for that truck. More reliable than old carb set up

[@thomassabia5750]

That thing on the bottom of the steering column is for column shifting

[@TenableMold]

Would love to see you send your drag car (if you still have it) over to Cleetus to get it fixed and dialed in. 👍🤞

[@OttCanuck]

Love this! Looks like you have some ankle vents to take care of eventually :) Enjoy working on it, overall, it's still a pretty truck.

[@paulgriffin6723]

Golden star in Texas you can get a brand new fresh sheet metal cab

You should be in Australia 🇦🇺 now.. the supercar 500 is on in The Gold Coast and they have just added drifter to the super cars track!!!! You and Adam would kill it here!!!! Luv your work!!!!!!

[@VicSwanby]

I have been looking forward to this build I have a 69 C10 and getting ideas for upgrades and possibly pricing for those upgrades Shure wood help this guy out in the long run. I've been doing research for the last couple years while I was going through the motor and having the transmission gone through. Honestly this was a great video and thank you for putting it out for us. Keep up the good work and awesome content. Also with as much play as you have in the steering you might want to replace the steering box as well in my 69 it was really loose like that as well until I put a new box in it.

[@adamvalencia1413]

on those old carb cars u gotta give it gas when u start it and then even pump the gas some before you even start it if its been sitting for a a couple days

[@petetofani4896]

Looks like some nice upgrades.

[@nathansee5104]

Just realized that your dog looks like Adam, once you see it, you can' t unsee it.

Think she had Pete first so she defo has a type 😂

[@joby1]

3 on the tree honey!

[@in4theaction]

If you want your C10 to handle and be sorted there's no better source then the crew at Level 7 really. They do consulting too you can just call and make sure you're getting the right stuff.

[@pauliewalnuts240]

The truck is so clean for how bad the floor is but i guess thats to be expected on any vehicle this old.

[@jeast417]

C6 in the background at the beginning of the vid and e46 in the background at the end

[@trusty2182]

That floor is Indiana clean 😂

[@QBDLettuce]

Love the truck even as is, Manual 454 short cab with long bed? It's exactly what I would go for. Can't wait to see how this build goes and what it's like with your changes to it.

[@bengammell9305]

If your C10 has a carburetor on it pump the gas pedal 3-4 times before starting it when cold.

[@Bitathisandthat]

Yaaay, Nice to see you back in the shop. your dogs are so cool..i have a shih tzu and a chihuahua and a bichon and chihuahua cross.....they are such cool pets.

[@maxpricefield5645]

Maybe swap out the headlights for some round ones

[@robertellis1246]

Trucks going to be cool do they do a gas pedal looks out of place with the new brake and clutch Pedals would definitely finish it off

[@harrybarker3097]

The state of that miata lol

[@DoggieCoutureShop-k6h]

Hey I dont think i have commented on youtube before but that c10 looks a lot like my dads 70 after he died Cyrus Took It and rebuilt it and it looks a lot like yours i just wanted to say that because seeing that truck made me think of him make sure you put a loud duel exhaust on there for him he loved loud cars 😢😢

[@ColleteDavis]

These are special trucks 🙏 I hope seeing it brings you good memories of your dad 🧡

Cool Vid Collete.New sub here all the way from South Africa. Btw, Ive done a few of those c10s over the years & put Toyota 21R 5spd boxes on them...Its super easy

[@Barry.ONeill]

You can get rid of the squeaky ness with some spray oil like wd40 or spray greese or penetration oil what ever you have spay it up around the pedal assembly on the moving parts 😂

[@peterdoyle3205]

Great to see you posting again but it is obviously old footage given that you posted a while ago that the Corvette was sold and this footage has it in the background. It would be great if you kept your postings in order and a bit more up to date.

[@kevinrost6095]

Lets make it a swb!

[@shaunmackie5967]

I feel like we need the c10 pulling the old orange drag car to the strip as a thumbnail

[@frankietuned]

Did you pump the gas pedal a few times before trying to start it? You need to do that with cars that run a carburetor.

[@pabloescarbarjr1539]

Oem clutch assembly goes for a good penny ! Should sell make some money back

[@davidwindsor4632]

Is it worth while going EFI Carby to make it easier to start. 👍

[@davisjudd5082]

You should keep the steering wheel that’s in it just clean it up and make it look nicer

[@rockercover]

Next: Positive traction rear differential. (Make those donuts even better).

[@frankwerts9279]

Your truck steering column is for an automatic transmission.

[@reaper352c5]

when are you swapping out the 4 cylinder for a v8 in the miata? it would be an epic build.

[@liiiinder]

Yeah, buying a ls conversion kit and dropping in an engine is so epic... 🤷‍♂

[@Awesomgamer1024]

I know this is a couple of weeks old. I've got a 78 C20, I am wanting to paint it orange with black stripes but I cant find an orange I like besides Hemi orange. What is the paint code of your orange? (if you know, your orange is exactly what im looking for)

[@Rin_-zx1zm]

This C10 is gonna be an even better truck if it's completely modded

[@moverholt311]

What’s the final vision for the truck? If it’s me, I’m lowering and bagging it. Just curious

[@fmma14667]

Later need to replace all the rusty panels and give it that full repaint 🙏

[@infidel2.066]

FINALLY!!! 😜😆

[@chadmarrs5235]

Short bed conversion in the future ?

[@Mldavis1214]

If your truck is a 3 speed or was then there’s a good chance that bracket piece on the column could’ve came from a 3 on the tree shifter that failed and was replaced
