[@zarkeh3013]

Your work is the cool part, making old things NEW AGAIN!

[@jimmysmith484]

Man! These comments are pretty derogatory. It’s just a how to show. Take it and run with it or leave it alone. I watch them to see the methods and thought process behind their ideas. Then if any are relevant to my current build, well I use them, if not just put it in the ole memory bank for later. Keep building guys.

[@sirchedderdogg4299]

Exactly!! And nine out of ten times their project vehicles are from friends that bought em and pay for parts and these guys use them for content.

[@robertemmons2260]

Oh great. Another C trucks video to give me motivation for my '68 C10 long bed. 😁

[@robertemmons2260]

Great episode! Looks like that I'll have to start doing more than tune ups, oil changes, and filling up the gas tank on my old '68 C10 long bed.

[@davonmoore5683]

I want say you guys are the best man I been watching you guys rebuild this truck I fill in love with this truck I probably would never get a chance to have one but if I had one I would love for it to be done the way you guys did it I love what you guys are doing God bless you guys

[@freemansgarage]

Have you been able to get a truck yet?

[@dsiner1obslifedziner157]

Beautiful c-10,thanks for sharing.

[@jeffrey4547]

first time i seen some one do the cut out right use bolts never wield a frame this will last a hell of a lot longer good job

[@benritchsmith]

You killed what that truck was supposed to be.

[@Road_Rash]

Y'all had all those crusty fasteners on a truck that clean, just imagine what I went through tearing down my old rust bucket...Lol!

[@ogs.i.c.k6263]

I gotta 67 buick lesabre that ive had for 10 years and I want to see that thing back on the road!

[@GTsPerformance]

I'm currently working on a 66 c10, and I'm hoping I can get the chassis looking as good as this! 💯👌

[@freemansgarage]

How's the 66 coming?

[@77mrswag]

Hell yeah badass truck

[@MrWesleymoon]

Personally I would of kept the old 350 and rebuilt it with high performance parts.

[@Lukedawg1984]

@Wesley Mooney, Agreed 100%

[@bilbobaggins4710]

Stroke it make 500hp

[@C8guy84]

Agreed. Should be against the law to do what these guys did to this truck, hacking and bagging a classic like this one.

[@bmstylee]

@@bilbobaggins4710 so all that work to make less than the new motor makes stock. Throw some parts at the LT1 and make way more than 500.

[@bilbobaggins4710]

I have one of these on my drive way and I want to restore it with my dad

[@rccraft5900]

I would love to have the means to do a classic car or truck.you guys are so lucky.

[@sbjennings99]

Awesome informative Video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya 🙏

[@v.e.7236]

I so wanted to bag my Blazer, but went and injured my left shoulder, so now I can barely use that arm anymore. Over five grand worth of air suspension just sitting here. Uhg!

The chassis work looks like a back yard job. What happen with sand blasting and 2K paint on the chassis?

[@shadmansajon6091]

👍👍Choice of Lt-1 engine in my openings is a massive update👍👍 👇👇Agree like🤘🤘

[@leviwoodring6101]

How did they know what was original sheet metal. It looks like it was cobbled pritty good. At least the frount end

Wow, My father had a Blue 1971 Chevy C10 just like this. Will this truck be for sale? I would be interested in buying it.

[@davidbrown-55]

They know they should have sand blasted the frame, and gun painted it. Boooom!

[@bandguy360]

Id love to have a bagged c10!

[@martinneps9387]

I have a 2001 Chevy S104 wheel drive extended cab what would be the best motor to put in that truck that's what I would like to know I wanted to do with 383 stroker what people say that's too much power for that truck Please comment back in let me know what you think

[@dazednconfused3171]

No such thing as too much power. Swap that bitch and post a video I gotta see this thing. Good luck

[@adamortega69]

I have a 68 that’s somewhat drivable and a 67 fleetside that needs to be put back together. That’s a later project. Just love how they look. Money is always a issue but about the time is all together, it’s like a sunrise and a feather duster had sex. Please excuse my language

[@bilbobaggins4710]

Best looking trucks ever..GM design baby 🙋

[@stevenallen6245]

I'll take that 350👀😂

It’s getting hard to find a 67-72 that’s not been slammed down. I hate it!! Stock height with a set of meaty tires looks a lot meaner

No power steering? That's gonna suck.

[@jamesconner489]

Do you have the video from the other c10 mentioned in the video about the one piece glass window? I bought that window kit from brothers and I’d like to see how they did it

[@C8guy84]

A "daily driver" on airbags, sure thing lmao.

[@Rockadillo3000]

Yes?

[@morgansword]

Personally the four link is better than the swing arm system they came with and of course the stabilizer bar for side to side control at that point. The truck looked nice coming in to the shop which proves you can polish a turd. That truck has the feel of Earl Sheye restoration. Never good as the build doubles in price. I think the style truck rear end was a five year only but am sure I am wrong on the years as the front didn't have the torsion bar suspension which was a short life span.All the usable bagged parts are good for swap meets but the bad worn ones should go straight to garbage. Someone will want the old 350 engine as it seemed to hold up the chevy name. That cab needs a lot of help for it to be right. I figure that is why this will be either two, three, or more episodes... marking how much to milk it for. I enjoy these builds too cause it gets junk off the road

I’ll never understand why people hack these frames up leave them alone lower them but don’t cut them up 👎

[@derbigpr500]

I guess safety is not one of their main concerns.

[@dougfarrer1693]

I'm sick and tired of all of these shows putting air stuff on

[@hawkdsl]

@@dougfarrer1693 Agreed.. Air bags are for semi's. They ride like sht on cars/trucks... and you hack up a perfectly good frame.

Couldn't you have had a new frame made?

[@kinghulk4142]

I've seen some prices on these old c10's and absolutely stupid fucking high prices.

[@DreamHachi]

That was a pretty nice truck. Too bad it got bagged. Would've left yet 350/th350 though

[@MrTheHillfolk]

I guess if pretty nice is a rusted bed and cobbeled together sheetmetal up front with a maaco paint job to hide it all.

[@jerryhubbard4461]

Yall kill me with the way you end each sentence. Sounds like you were coached on how to do this. Not normal. Still enjoy watching.

[@codypeterson7166]

Jerry Hubbard I agree every one of these auto shows talks in that same cadence and it’s unnatural and annoying

[@mikekiefer3915]

When they do these types of projects. Since they basically don’t use anything. Why don’t they just buy all new parts. Custom built frames. And the body’s are all new parts fro their catalog sponsors.

Why would you rip out such a pretty 350 :(

Because the new LT1 blows it away in performance. Nuff said.

@@bmstylee build the 350 to make more power for less money, done

[@roymcnabb1750]

To all the old geezers: Nobody cares how you would build it. Every geezer has a square body with a small block 350, lame wheels, and plain paint job. I'd rather see what actual builders are doing than to see the same old square body build thats been overdone for decades.

Imop. Would of just lowered slightly more..kept the 350..why butcher it up like that?🤮

[@Lukedawg1984]

Truck was fine the way it was! All this new age crap there is no need for it! These old classic trucks and cars are cool as they are. They are old classic cars and trucks with classic drive trans in them. Stop putting all this new stuff in classic cars and trucks. if you want new stuff buy a new truck or car! Ruining and hacking up all these classics is getting old fast! 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

[@elitesniper40]

Agreed, building that 350 wouldve been a much better option

[@DreamHachi]

Damn right. I got a 67 and I always gotta wonder why people run them with this type of crap

I guess, if fine is a rusted bed and cobbeled up front sheetmetal up front and a maaco paint job to hide it.

Always found the fact that they didn't use leaf springs remarkable. It would be another 40 years until another truck didn't have them.

[@robertemmons2260]

Actually, they did use rear leaf springs on some of the C10s. It's a factory upgrade. I don't have the code in front of me, but the label is on my glove box lid of my '68 C10 long bed. Its called the HD Rear Leaf suspension. EDIT; 04G50GA is the option code for HD leaf. I had taken a pic of my tag after work.

[@DelBartel0956]

GMC had leaves.
