FULL BUILD: 1966 C-10 Long Bed Barn Find to Short Bed Beauty

[@ilbercgross4736]

And this is what I miss with the older format of the shows. They take you step by step and they show you what they are doing. What they have done. They do not just say what they are planning and next scene have it done. Kevin and Ryan are the best hosts, Trucks or whatever they needed it later ever had.

[@carlBigSpoonjohnson]

One of the best looking 👀 pickups I have ever seen. Well done gentlemen!!

[@VicsYard]

I was the parts cleaning guy as a kid. Gasoline. No gloves. No mask. Just loving every minute with my father. 👍🏼🙏🏼

[@1dollarten]

Im old school and did a lot a fabricating and rebuilds. Its good to see the hobby carried on in good hands

[@michaelboyd9433]

Soooooo glad ya'll didn't do a sad patina paint job these trucks look so much better with a paint job that is fresh and uniform. Great work. I have owned 3 of these body styles and are my favorite of all the Chevy trucks .

[@Averagegunenthusiast]

This is an old episode back in the day when people had taste and patina wasn't a main stream thing. Patina probably started as I can't afford paint to high end builders deciding they can save the labor and expense of a paint job but still charge you the price as if they had.

[@Sonny_V]

I understand the patina look has its place, but in my opinion, you just can't beat the look of brand new beautiful paint.

[@michaelmoline7058]

@@Averagegunenthusiast That's honestly the first thing that came to my mind, don't get me wrong, there are some cars that patina looks amazing on, but when I see most cars with patina It just seems lazy like they were trying to avoid the paint work

[@yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo9266]

how much money did you throw at that thing to try and make it look cool... under all that body filler and paint theres a story, a story you're covering up

[@maggs131]

I agree this truck looks fantastic but owning or working on a truck or car redone to this magnitude is stress x 10000. A friend of mine had a 70 something square body that had a billion dollar paint job on the body and frame. He had rubber hoses over his ratchet handles to name one extreme he went to protecting his cream puff. I absolutely hated working on that thing. Just replacing the exhaust was a nightmare. Ooh ooh careful watch it dont hit the frame, oh my god did you chip it. But then he treated his 70k suburban like a demolition car. Besides the look I can see why patina is popular. It's for cars to be genuinely enjoyed and not babied like jesus blessed the crown jewels

[@bloughme5947]

Tommy's hair! Flowing golden locks.

[@blazedface251]

@bloughme5947 dude I was shocked to see that. My boy got the locks 😂

Guys you are real masters ! Amazing work!

[@johnbehneman1546]

TOTALLY AWESOME BUILD!!!! I LOVE THE 1960 to 1966 C10'S. YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAILY DRIVER!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!!!

[@64maxpower]

When you're done you could drive it right onto the scales at the scrapyard, after ruining it and cutting it in half to make it look like a Volkswagen

[@robertmaclachlan1599]

wow watching this and seeing tommy rocking the mulet was cool

[@wildbill2703]

My first truck was 64 short bed. Miss that truck.

[@TC-dw6wg]

Guys did a great job on that truck. Only negative its not a manual. Love the old styling of both Chevy and Ford back in the day. Hope you guys do more of these kind of truck builds.

[@JRRott-mj5jq]

Sweet truck guys really nice I appreciate that you kept it stock looking too very nice 👍🏻

[@ragilmastapela3831]

Thank you guys... Good job 👍👍👍

Hell of a build! I plan on daily driving my truck once I finish the build!

Oh man. So easy to work on for a mechanic. Tough. Timeless grocery getter. Tool guy ride. Splendid.

[@fredb.6884]

I had a 67 small back window C10. Worked on that truck for 20 years while serving in the military only to end up selling it in a divorce 😳. What a sad day that was. Truck looked 👍🏾 great too. Did not mind loosing that wife but heart crushed 💔 loosing that truck. Truck never did me wrong😪. A true Soldiers 🚚 truck...😁🇺🇸

[@bradbazzett9971]

Great looking truck! Enjoyed watching the whole build!!!

[@billbright1755]

I had a 62 long narrow bed with 235 six in high school. Red and white it was a great pick up. Those coil springs and swim arm rear end could handle wash boards like a dream. My 51 would be in the ditch at those speeds.

[@BillMulholland1]

More full build vids like this. 👍

[@Averagegunenthusiast]

I built my 72 GMC, it was a long bed converted to short bed, I was able to get an entire replacement bed for it. I did close to what they did here in the 2 hours, took me about 5 1/2 years in my garage.

[@overbuiltautomotive1299]

i guess i weird i like long bed better and they ride great to ,1964 step side long bed that mine

[@budcurtis7047]

[@theuniversalschoolofachiev4865]

[@rabooey]

Another great tool to use when installing Boom Mats is a thick or folded rag, preferably clean of course. It gives you the ability to slide your hands around while pressing the mats down, especially around the usual bends/shaped metal found in vehicle cabs.

[@utkarshkharat6464]

You guys are very hardworking!

[@BigDawgCleveland]

Great Job guys!!!

[@ClappedBimmers]

It’s a shame that they didn’t leave the original paint, I know it wasn’t the style then but it just looked so good!

[@maggs131]

I agree. So many in the comments are hating on the original look. While I agree a new paint job looks fantastic it has the side effect of making its owner weird where they baby it more than anything else they own. Makes it a complete nightmare to work on for fear of a microscopic chip on the frame.

[@stevelee4653]

I love those old trucks.. they are so cool!!!

[@jimreeves1954]

I learned to drive on a 65 carryall with a 3 on the tree. You guys built a beautiful truck that is so much better than the factory. Well done.

[@johnsmith-qz4bv]

NICE WORK GUYS

[@darthbuster]

I prefer this C10 build to Stacy David's Copperhead C10. Jmo. This one seems more "everyman" and keeps the truck more original, save the chopped bed. Beautiful build. Love the color.

[@GMCTIM]

Love these old trucks ! The short bed looks better but the long bed drives & rides better in my opinion ! My first truck in mid 80 S was 62 Chevy custom ! Have a 66 LWB & 68 SWB now !!! 😁👍✌

[@brucegunter8947]

Good looking Truck . Cool .

[@jefferymullins42]

I had a 1964 c 20 long wheel base with a 1963 327 corvette motor loved that old truck when I left the states I sold it to a 18 year old school kid he bugged me 2 years to buy it from me. I told him to bring a 1000 dollars and it’s his.

[@captainschroeder]

Fanfreekingtastic job!!!

[@jimmurihiku8009]

Beautiful job👍

[@christophersmallwood3944]

@57:28 he says make sure your air bleeders are pointed up or your going to have a whole Lotta trouble getting air out of the brake lines. Then immediately mounts it down.

[@19chev81]

He mounted it the right way...the bleeder screw is at the top....🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@brandongeddes1008]

You can call it a driver, but you better have LoJack on it and never leave it in a parking lot overnight. Too nice!

[@arrowphillips6902]

Love this truck....little trick with the exhaust welds is to use a flat file first to take the hump of the weld down flat and then sand and polish....spent many years welding stainless boat rails and polishing them... just something I learned about 25 years ago.

[@mkidd8806]

At 1:57:19 it appears the right back up light came on!

[@memoalonso3317]

My preference would have been put a 4 or 5-speed manual transmission. I love that paint job. Needs a headliner and Air Conditioning.

I wonder if the Eastwood Rhodite compound that Kevin used on the windshield, will get rid of minor windshield pitting? And if it can be done with the windshield still installed?

[@garycamara9955]

My Fathers first truck was a 49 Chevy, total frame off restoration in 58. My father did the body work and paint Then he bought it from the guy, $600!

[@mitchelltiefenthaler2582]

"Dude this flash drive has some absolute bangers on it"

[@mattchastain1770]

Was the cab braced before it was lifted? If not, was it not braced due to the doors being left on and that prevented things from being really wonky when it was placed back on the frame?

[@richardshippful]

That green is a great color. Not enough green vehicles in the world.

[@woof3598]

worked, many thanks

[@ct4cf]

I would've kept the LWB; opted2 shorten the bed extend the cab w/2suicides, larger fuel tank(s), FI, EPS rack, carpet delete, pwr panoramic moon roof, modern 8coil ignition, roller cam& rockers or small block LS, alumacoat headers w/locks, 8spd ZF Automatic, darker bed woods, spray in bed liner, sliding rear window, hi-mount LED 3rd brake light, nano grapheme tinted windows, 250V LiPo battery system, electric A/C compressor &cold air induction. I like the 4Wheel discs, V8 retention &OEM color matching.

[@georgeshields5525]

I agree, the LWB was rare back in the day. Short boxes were a dime a dozen!

[@hawkdsl]

It's been 12 years sense this was finished. Be nice to see it now, and how it held up in that time... I would have ditched the green, and at no time would I put bags on it. Thankfully, that trend has played out.

[@SOLDOZER]

Bagged C10s are played out? Haha!! Its just getting started.

[@hawkdsl]

@@SOLDOZER No... bags are so 90's. No matter what baggers say, nothing is better then a real suspension. Bags are for semis.

[@stevelee4653]

If were to have one. I want the improved suspension and abs and air.. that is it.. newer stuff is nice, but the classics are the best ever.. my grandpa had a 66 chevy long bed.. with a 6 cylinder and a 3 speed on the column. it was a work horse of a truck.. blue and white..!!!

this drivable art is amazing. it's a new truck where an old rusty truck used to sit. be well.

At 1:11:09 Tommy got a hair cut and he isn't blond anymore.

[@BillMulholland1]

I think I heard them say “ a year ago when we first started this build “

[@fehlrock]

I like long beds, my whole family had long bed pickups..

[@toml802]

For polishing on the wheel. My dad taught me NOT to hold your piece at a 90 degree angle to the wheel. Instead, hold it at an angle to the wheel and you won't launch your part!

[@taylorh3930]

They just started making Short box bedsides now for these trucks

[@jerrygonzalez6643]

Hell yes how about a 73-87 next

[@chevylandt.v]

Heck yeah I would like to see it.

[@Biggspeed]

Should’ve mocked up the suspension and notched the frame before the blast and powder coat. Also should’ve left the patina. This must be an old show. Tommy had long hair and looked young.

[@Rockr69747]

new windshield. not old polished one. still looks hella nice!!!
