Chassis Swap In 2 Days! Classic Chevy Truck To Modern Silverado

[@MTJ1986]

I have a 77 i picked up to do the same. I do have 3 other square bodies so I don't know how soon I will get to it though. Truck is off to a great start! She will be purty!

[@Rustomod]

Nice my buddy has a square body on a Escalade frame

[@Stp1974]

This is the first video of yours I've seen, and I have to say that Rambler is a work of art.

[@Rustomod]

Thank you I appreciate it ! Alot of work went into it.

[@johnnygeorgopoulos4072]

9:30 look at that dash and seat 😲 they're immaculate.... even the floors were damn near spotless.... great find

[@Rustomod]

Pretty solid truck

[@johnnygeorgopoulos4072]

@Rustomod definitely cleaner than most of mine half it's age 😅

[@BYo10]

This showed up on my home page today, immediate subscription, excited to see this build!

[@Rustomod]

Welcome aboard!

[@bmwhitt]

I did the exact same thing. Can't wait to see it finished!

[@Mr.DickisBack]

@@Rustomod this just popped up in my suggestions too!! *SUBSCRIBED* just like anyone else should if they love trucks!!!

[@OKHall]

Looking good. Never thougt that big cab would fit on the 1/2 ton frame. Cant wait to see it finished.

[@tylerseabook9423]

I’m doing a 64 1/2 ton on a 2010 Tahoe keeping the Tahoe firewall. Running the 64 dash over the Tahoe firewall and hvac

[@Rustomod]

Sounds like a great project

[@johnnygeorgopoulos4072]

I hope you have plans to chop the donor Silverado chassis down to shorten it, and then source a '60-'66 fleetside bed for the C60... it'll line up perfectly, then what I'd do, is fashion those fender flares/running boards and lengthen them, and make ones that look exactly like the front flares for the bed, and have extended boards all blended in....then you can run some hmmm....22x14" wheels, squared setup lol, 22x14 front and back to fill the flares....(You might get away with 22x12 with 0 or + offset lol) But it would look absolutely insane....a widebody C60 👌🏼

[@haroldkuykendall9078]

I Love the Stud Wagon!!! You have some Great Vehicles!!!😊

[@Rustomod]

It’s a rambler wagon on a corvette chassis

[@jimcollins3411]

Okay , you caught me off guard and now I'm hooked to see how this turns out . Here I am adding in another truck , car post to follow , good thing I'm retired now and have time to follow .

[@Rustomod]

Glad I caught your attention!

[@LeonardMagnusson]

cool, done this. cool. long time ago. i 'll watch. not judge. every body has there way of doing stuff.

[@troysgarage]

This is awesome and the timing is great. On my channel I’m working on a ‘70 C30. Got it running and it’s up for grabs. I wish I had time and room for another project myself but since I don’t someone else will get a sweet project truck with amazing patina!

[@Rustomod]

Awesome!

[@derrickfarrow5395]

Cool build

[@estepcreativedesign3744]

Great looking start! Keep up the good work 😎 It helps keep others excited about finishing their projects. I haven’t started (waiting for lift to arrive) my swap yet, but have the truck (49 Ford F1) and chassis (5.0 AWD Explorer) already bought and waiting!

[@Rustomod]

That sounds awesome! I love a good Ford swap.

[@aust-n]

Only seen a couple things from you but you’ve got one of my favorite channels lately. Can’t wait to see your channel grow up man

[@aust-n]

And by grow up I mean grow to where it deserves to be, it’s just a matter of time your content is doing giant numbers

[@Rustomod]

Appreciate the support man!

[@thiagoemorge]

Oh yeah! In Brazil,is a chevrolet C60,great job!

[@BigJim_909]

Subbed for this C60 build! My dream setup! 😍

[@Rustomod]

Thanks for the sub! Hope you enjoy the build!

[@kerrypierre9494]

Just found your channel and had to subscribe. This C60 is going to look sharp. Keep up the great work brother.👌👍🔥

[@Rustomod]

Thanks for the sub!

[@jts5298]

Back during Thanksgiving I bought a 01 tahoe to put my 1964 c10 body on. Your videos is what made me finally pull the trigger on it. I'm on a budget so seeing a budgeted reliable option like this is awesome.

[@Rustomod]

Thanks! Glad the videos could help!

[@White-Head]

Nice one. I have a 70 c60 roll back. I'm doing a Duramax swap , and possibly a solid axel swap for the front. I picturing an off road recovery rig

[@Rustomod]

That’s super awesome

[@Laterdays2]

Looking like a project truck. I love it!

[@Rustomod]

Definitely a project

[@DroooooopDead]

Love the truck. I have a 2000 Chevy 1500 I was wondering what i could chassis swap. And now I know.

[@Rustomod]

That’s a great idea, I’d love to see what you do!

[@billyhaddock5540]

great job getting the C60 cab to look even. it will be a great build to come.

[@Rustomod]

Thanks!

[@LeonardMagnusson]

i was always a fan of the old cad columns telescopic. never used one that went to the side.

[@watermalanblew]

Just stumbled upon this. I think it would look cooler as a dually 😮

[@kyleweaklend5186]

Right on man... That's innovated thinking at it's greatest... Good job...

[@Rustomod]

Thanks! I was pretty proud of how it came together.

[@The_TOMMYRAZOR]

My Uncle says C60’s are cooler than C10’s

[@Rustomod]

It’s definitely an awesome looking truck

[@Monkeymanvr-OG]

He’s right

[@HectorFabela-k6u]

Your uncle is cooler than you.

[@Stupidfastracing]

They all are Kool trucks

[@cjroberts7022]

Uncles are always right!

[@themonopolyguy4365]

Keep the c60 together!

[@Metal_Massacre_Fab_Shop]

Heck yeah man!! Another killer video

[@Rustomod]

Thanks!

[@robertmattox9715]

Heck i just here to see it fit cause i been wondering about this swap too ..

[@Rustomod]

Welp now you know!

[@Zedsdead83]

Man, you got heaps of choice cars. That truck gonna be 🔥🔥. Subbed.

[@Rustomod]

Thanks!

[@larryrussomanno9217]

Pretty cool project! You make it look and sound easy but I know it’s not. Subbed

[@Rustomod]

It’s not too bad with a 2 post lift it would be way easier

[@c50ge]

A little taller tires will fill the wheel wells some and also give a little more clearance on the running boards. I’m building a 68 C50 with 5800 miles (retired fire truck) water truck. I spent a fortune rebuild the brakes . If it wasn’t such low miles I would have gone your direction. Stretching a fleet side bed to around 11ft. (Using two beds to make 1) and adding fender flairs of some kind.

[@Rustomod]

That sounds awesome, I love that you're keeping your low mileage truck going. I think I wanna try to make a flat bed for this to look like the original truck

[@ghost.of.aleksz.salad.]

next do a tilt cab semi onto a regular chassis

[@yeahbuddygarage]

Nice work man!! Makes me want to do a body swap on something. lol.

[@Rustomod]

Call me up!

[@scottysgarage4393]

I've got a C60, dual rear axles, 22' dump bed...and Thursday I picked up a 2001 3500 4x4 dually gasser cheap...Was thinking about a swap and now this pops up in my feed. Hmmm...

[@Rustomod]

That’s gonna be awesome!!!

[@jmsmilin]

Im going to want to buy htis when its done, just like you sold the C10 for a new project, I buy this one and you move on to another project too

[@morgansword]

Looks nice and given all the wheel choices today, that shouldn't be a issue when done

[@Rustomod]

Yeah definitely it fits and looks better than i thought it would

[@e3672222]

I wonder if the running boards can be incorporated into this build? That would look killer low.

[@Rustomod]

Oh yeah running boards are staying !

[@robertstevison1448]

Going to be a beast 💪 yall just subscribed just found your channel

[@Rustomod]

Awesome! Check out some of our past builds !

[@robertstevison1448]

@Rustomod I will be looking forward to watching your videos brother

[@BernardRempel-t4l]

Looking good so far!

[@Rustomod]

Thanks!

[@CompToyZ]

I'm really glad I found your videos. I dont something likewise but less talking. I have had a very traumatic stroke, so can be a quiet time. May actually get some one to read it for me. I have 32 vehicle I can start on. I was a truck driver, so not Bueno por favor. I'm in canada

[@Rustomod]

I’m sorry to hear that, but good luck with the builds!

[@CompToyZ]

@Rustomod you betcha

[@johnlilley657]

Nice video keep it up 💯💯💯

[@Rustomod]

Thanks!

[@chriss2283]

This dude made that new truck a tank in sheeps clothing 😂. Good move!

[@chriss2283]

To be honest. I don't know how this comment stayed. I deleted it, so I thought, because my idiot self typed it before I realized you swapped the old body to the modern frame. Instead of the new body to the tank frame. So it's more like a sheep in tanks clothing 😅. Thanks for the like though.

[@carlosceballos5991]

me gusta la ford del 60 rojo con blanco que se mira al fondo

[@Rustomod]

Build coming soon!

[@bartismoellis1052]

They make a bracket to convert a c10 to power brakes I used it on my C50 it works. Great

[@Rustomod]

Awesome I’ll look into that thanks!

[@uncleg9363]

Subscribed after I heard you sold your truck to buy a house 👍

[@Rustomod]

Thanks for the sub! Pretty rough haha

[@Somdsquarebodies]

Looks good dude!

[@Rustomod]

Thanks!

[@thecamaroguy2618]

Love it

[@peterbarlow8912]

Not sure why more people don’t utilize medium duty cabs with their voluminous flared fenders. It’s possible those fenders would bolt to a light duty cab.

[@Rustomod]

The cab and hood are the same the front fenders are different I think they look really cool

[@peterbarlow8912]

@ isn’t the door and it’s frame the same? Is the fender inner liner and it’s fender bolt pattern different? There’s sure a lot of room for big tires. I remember driving a mid sixties F250 company truck with similar fenders running on stock skinny 20’s.

[@Rustomod]

Yeah I believe they are the same not sure about the inner fenders

[@ShaunHensley]

Your buddy pacing around because he wanted to ask for a burnout 😂

[@Rustomod]

Burnout addiction is real 😂

[@markphillyfreeway5350]

Put it on a C2500 chassis then bigger tires and it looks like a real c30

[@Rustomod]

Trying to do this on a budget with what I have that would be awesome tho

[@markphillyfreeway5350]

@Rustomod I understood 😂 but it would look more like a C30 😂 I would still buy it I love the look of the 30 .great work 💪

[@JeronWhite]

Cool truck

[@HoldenMaGroin-d9m]

I purchased a 1966 C60 fire truck in mint condition recently and have since bought a 97 dodge 3500 with a cummins for the cab swap but now you're making me rethink that a chevy 3500 of this year may make for a better foundation especially since the dodge has terrible front end problems. Besides already having this truck on hand to use, what kept you from using a 3500 chassis?

[@Rustomod]

Honestly I wanted to do a 2500-3500 but I wanted to keep this budget friendly so i just kinda used what I had to keep the cost down this would be a great truck to do a 3500 swap on also

[@HoldenMaGroin-d9m]

​@Rustomod Hey I completely understand that. Projects like this can get out of hand real fast. Looking forward to see how it turns out!

[@Rustomod]

Thanks! Maybe I’ll do a 3500 one in the future!

[@joshslackslack8115]

I would take the Cummins out of your truck you have new and sell everything else find a Chevy chassis with a Allison transmission and do a Cummins Allison combo and have a better all around truck at the end ​@@HoldenMaGroin-d9m

[@shanewood9517]

Nice work bro

[@Rustomod]

Thanks, it’s been a fun build so far!

[@markcook8526]

I,I,I,I,I,I.. how about engage the viewer and say this is what we are going to do

[@DadsTrucksBarn]

I'm just hoping you realize that the cab is exactly the same. All you have to do is take off the cheese 60 frames and steps and it's A. Regular standard cab. You get not sure if you can just bought regular fingers on it. But it's a regular tab. I remember David friedberger, mentioning those in the next generation saying you don't understand why people don't use them for the 4 by force because of the bigger fenders, but they're all just A. Regular tab with, but they have the attachment of the steps in them different fenders. So in essence you're still just doing a c10 swap

[@Rustomod]

Yep it’s the same i actually mentioned that in the video so of your doing a c10 you should be able to mount it to the frame exactly like i will

[@HoldenMaGroin-d9m]

Well the C60 has a flat floorboard where the C10 didn't. Besides that, and the fenders, and body mounts, they are the same.

[@alldabeanzracing9650]

thats pretty awesome!

[@Rustomod]

Thanks going pretty easy actually

[@n9uib]

new sub...... neat transformation

[@Rustomod]

Thanks!

[@peteharvey4055]

Awesome

[@garyuselman8597]

I can't see why it wouldn't be cheaper by taking springs on c60 off and putting a ll around air suspension on it

[@jmsmilin]

dont take off the AC, keep it on there

[@LOVEMCHUNCKY]

❤

[@enjoythesho1992]

It's a chevy you could have rebuilt the entire c60 on rock auto I've found all my break components easily for mine .....really cool swap though

[@Rustomod]

RockAuto is great! This was a different approach though, but I get what you mean. I just wanna drive his truck like a newer truck to events across the country

[@jameslivingston7159]

Wrong Auto

[@truckercarterO9]

What's the name of the intro song?

[@Rustomod]

It should say in the description

[@truckercarterO9]

@Rustomod it doesn't

[@Roadfarms]

Naa dude if I was you I would get the rust off the frame or buy a harbor freight sand blaster and sand blast the frame and paint it with a heavy duty paint

[@Rustomod]

Definitely will clean the frame up just need to get it mounted so we can see how much we gotta cut up

[@Roadfarms]

@ yeah good idea to see how much you need to cut up first so that you don’t have to cut when you painted it already.

[@Rustomod]

Exactly always do the finish work last seems like every time you paint something you end up having to take a grinder to it again haha

[@TheMasterofsparks]

You screwed yourself when you cut the gas pedal harness. It unplugs on both ends and you need the tac module on the other end.

[@Rustomod]

Yeah I did good catch haha luckily they sell longer ones

[@Dannymurmaid]

Definitely go lower. Raise the running boards so it’s functional

[@Rustomod]

Wait for the next video haha it turned out pretty good

[@jontompkins1844]

As a car guy, I feel like you have less than you started with.

[@lancethelocal]

Keep the sh!tboxes alive!

[@Rustomod]

Yesss

[@svb3474]

Wow!! Still sad you had to sell the C-10….I think you’ve tapped into some “Chevy” people.

[@MulletMotorsports]

Tell that other guy he needs a haircut!

[@Rustomod]

GOBBLESS

[@danbuchner1494]

That looks kool

[@vn8272]

Awesome
