First Drive of My Body-Dropped, LT-Swapped Chevy C10: Finnegan's Garage Ep.138

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 มี.ค. 2021
- My tube chassis, supercharged LT4-powered, six-speed gearbox-equipped 1967 Chevrolet C10 has officially hit the streets! After a decade of hibernation, the custom independent suspension, 20-inch Forgeline wheels and Mittler Bros Hydroshox are fully functional and I'm happy to report that I've rowed all six gears of the RTS/6XDgearbox.com billet sequential transmission. The Holley Terminator X Max efi system is far from properly tuned but after a few hiccups during the last day of the build, my friends and I were able to get a taste of the potential of this street truck. Now all we gotta do is drive the thing 300 miles back home to Georgia!

That was some beautiful music! Congratulations on getting it on the road. 👍
I was not expecting the lockpickinglawyer in this comment section! Amazing.
@@rolandmessy he's a man of class sir!
You'd never pick that trucks door locks, cos it ain't got any 😄
locks cars and guns this man lives
Awesome to see you here
The pure happiness of a car guy when it all comes together and works. It's an amazing feeling.
There's nothing else like it 👍
Not just for car guys
Sounds incredible. All those years, congrats man
All those years and 1 week haha
@@deanbryan3034 the 1 week wouldnt have been very productive without all the previous years.
@@FinnegansGarage Congrats on getting on the road and thank you for bring us along to see it done. Well done sir and thank you
@@FinnegansGarage hey Mike I've been following the build on and off since it began but are you running a stock LT4 or did you upgrade it to make a bunch more power?
@@FinnegansGarage what size steering wheel and what type
I feel like Newbern and Cotten are those brothers who love each other but also drive each other nuts on purpose and Finn is their cool uncle with all the toys.
That is the best explanation there is lol
You are so friggin right
I love this crew.
clutch sticking reminded me of the Disgustang episode where the car died in the middle of the road. " go around haven't you seen this show before"
Do the coolest thing you said this entire video was "I almost want to put a bench seat in it so I can take both of my kids to school"
That is the main reason for my builds spending time with my family
Agreed. Concept into reality is one thing. The "...taking both of my kids to school..." statement made it even more "real" to me.
that was my idea when i bought a 73 elco was for me and my dad to do something together unfortunately since he retired hes lazy and wont hardly do a fucking thing
@@0Heeroyuy01 my dad was forced to retire so he was depressed. Much like your dad he would just lay around. It took my older brother having a talk with him to get a spark and it was like he was a new man. I think you just need to find that spark for him, and hey it could be as simple as a what if picture of the car when its done.
@@HillBillyAsian believe me i have and i mean harshly too, to the upside he is working now :) so thats a good thing.
also my dad was forced out from were he had worked for 25 years along with loads of other people under the "idea" the company was moving to mexico but never did
the grind is why we keep turnin up in droves man!! that is one sweet machine! stay safe and take care everyone
he smiles like a little kid in a candy store. beautiful.
That giggle is worth all the hard work
That laugh. Ive experienced myself. Like a kid in a candy store
When I laugh like that it's usually followed up with "I'm gonna get so many tickets."
The dr Frankenstein laugh "its alive!!!! It is alive....!!!!"
I came here to make the same comment.
The never ending build of the C-10 is almost done. Congratulations 👏. 👏 👏. 👏 👏. 👏
hearing and seeing you all giddy about getting it running just put smiles all over good job...
Cotten is the greatest background person. Gets a laugh from me without saying a word.
yeah his face talks even without moving his mouth
@@ghomerhust Yeah, they say a picture is worth a thousand words, but a picture of him tells an entire book.
Same ahaha
"Go rewind this tape" lmao cotten is such a gem
My 44yrs on this earth, owning harleys, and hot rods. I have NEVER heard a truck sound so EFFIN RAW!! I dont know what mufflers is on that thing but WOW!! I've got a cammed ls3 vette that I thought sounded good and that truck literally raises the hair on my arms. That's through headphones. I couldn't imagine in person. Good job guy. One bad ass build!
At this point the video is 3 months old so I assume Mike Finn will not see this comment, however, that truck is soooo COOL!!!!!!!
And with the throttle just barely cracked? Holy $h!t !!!! Amazing job and congratulations to Mike and all the others that helped build this truck. Truly Amazing, already!
I remember the episode this truck showed up and I've been waiting so long to see that truck move up and down, forward and backwards under power. It didn't disappoint. You all kicked all kinda butt.
the exhaust note is flawless. its shows just a bit of how sinister that engine really is. if everything holds together, that truck is going to be explosive on the track
This was the single biggest episode that I've been waiting to see since you brought that truck home. It's about time that thing rips it down the street
That's what you want to do thrash on a not broken in engine and trans!!! 👍 Well done guy it sound earth shattering..😎 bench seats for the win‼️‼️
the whole time you were on that test drive I was like "DO A BURNOUT" - holy crap that thing is epic; the sound, the look, the smiles per mile!
Mike looks so happy, out the bench seat in it for the kids swap to buckets for events
Just seeing the joyous expressions, and hearing the laughter.. l would love to experience that again myself. Good job guys, great truck...
The "Gold Standard" for Roadkill will always be the "Alaska"-Episodes. This Truck is 90%, but the adventure is missing , now go and get there Mike!!!!Cheers from Germany!
Finally get to see everyone smile
Starting my first TH-cam page, on my very first video I give thanks to some of my motor sport idols you and David Freiburger are my number one Motorsport Idols showing that anybody and everybody can be involved in with this hobby you just need to get out there and do it your passion will show as you grow and gain knowledge!
Thank you guys for being such a staple for such a long time in the car community!

Everything about that truck is RAW, and I love it! The trans, and that exhaust sounds straight up chaotic.
I'm so happy to see this truck drive down the road, it's so sick
Those child-esk giggles are the reason we all do this. Now on to the Caddy
Can we just stop for a moment to admire those freaking amazing looking wheels? This is sick!
I know they are forgelines, but which ones. I must know, I've been surfing and can't find em
Very muscle truck reminiscent. I love it. Plus it will lay flat on the ground. So extra points. “Let me play you the song of my people”
BRAHH... BRAH PHRA PHRA PFHRA BRAAAAaaaaaaH!
I love how violently that thing wanted to get out and run.
This truck has always been the most wanted content I bet, at least from me.
The crew is awesome.
Cottens impersonation of the truck firing up was incredible😂😂😂
Remember kids: It doesn't need to be good, just good enough. Otherwise you never "finish" it.
The only problem with that is when you "good enough" finish it and start enjoying it you either A, never really finish it or B, end up pulling it back apart for years again 😂
Oh I'll never finish mine but that's because she will always be a daily driver.
Got my t shirt in Canada today! Wife is holding it ransom until our anniversary June 4th,so glad to see this beast running,now l got to get my 68 GMC to the next step.Thanks Finnegan for giving me a target on my build.This covid thing is kicking my butt with friends helping! Aldergrove BC...
the quote of the video ,,,
Get perfect out of your head ...
Priceless......
Excellent as always...
The Chevrolet C10 is a timeless design like a Porsche 911 to a Ford GT40 its a true classic all of the way until 87 I really liked the mid 80's body. This truck is amazing 🇺🇲
That Finnigan laugh i think means you done good. Congrats on getting her on the road.
It's nice to finally see that truck running it spent a long time hiding
My 3 year old watches these with me ... Daddy I want to watch a broken car show... 😂. Truck is looking sweet!
Who needs a radio when you have sweet music like that
the 2 dislikes must have been the people stuck behind him when it broke down
Worst most aggravating stressful thing when that happens. Been there a couple of xs.
65 now
😂
😂😂😂
That or a couple people from the Mooresville Town Council,,,lol
When I built my S10 that I swapped a V8 into and I got it first going I had that same reaction ear to ear smile
all hail the rebuild gods ! what a ride well done everyone can't wait for the ride home
C-10 perfection...Now to the interstate!!!
Dang never seen cotton so happy lol
Flashbacks of two lane blacktop hearing you ripping gears- thanks for letting us hear it
Sooooo much win.... Best day at work ever... I havent seen Mike look lime that since the 55 was running..
Hey Finnegan you and frieberger should make a roadkill episode where you both road trip both trucks to a dragstrip and line them up. Then do a burnout contest. Congrats on your badass beast of a truck bro and great job to you and all your homies.
Total Envy... Those gears ... That sound...That look ..Awesome, you guys ROCK....
I've waited so long to see this thing drive and it was worth it!!! I love this truck!!
So glad to see you get the c10 running.. now please bring it our big c10 show this October in NC.. C10 revival... you will not regret it we had 800 + c10s from all over the US this past show and expect even more this year.
This vs Cleetus' Dale Truck needs to happen in the worst way
I was thinking the same thing or kc Frankenstein f truck
This truck must bring you back to the muscle truck days But so much better
I thank when i say this i mean for all us guys thats seen this truck for years im happy for u to get her down the road first for me
Gosh.... THANK YOU!!!!! for videos like these!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DANNNNNNNNNGGGG
Sounds so freakin’ good! Really looking forward to hearing it once it’s tuned. Congrats to you and the guys man....really happy for you. And thanks for sharing it with us....this series has been awesome to follow!
I’m jealous of your kids. Eventually when they’re in high school they might just get the chance to show up in this truck. If that wouldn’t be the most badass thing ever, I don’t know what is.
Lucky bastards
They already get dropped off in blasphemi, so I think they are already there
The look of pure joy says it all
The giggles are well worth the money
It literally sounds exactly what my brain interprets what a T-rex sounds like. Animation will now feature this trucks every sound.
You need to get together with Dave and the Muscle Truck and Cleetus with the Dale truck and have a shootout at the freedom factory.
Best idea ever...
The song of your people is strong with this one. Love it; great team effort.
Watching this guy having fun driving this thing made me smile so hard
That look cotton gives finn at the end.... priceless
Its nice how you compare the day you lost your virginity with the day you met Mike.. thats some.. ..brotherly love
@00:26, our HEARTS STOPPED after SMILING with you as you pulled onto the street. Damn! Ohh well, the clutch can be fixed rather quickly because you guys thought ahead and made access to the trans, driveline and clutch relatively easy. SUCCESS!
OMG guys! That is one awesome C10! Chevy shortness rule! Best day at work ever! Can’t wait till you get a good tune in it!
ok thats it your glee is driving me to finishing my ls C10 and yes to the bench seat
Mike- you can create a gear indicator on the Holley dash and ditch that little box
Storage unit for me. Lol
Cotton was telling the truth glad you guys smashed it out so you can enjoy it while you still can
With all that labor cost it should be called million dollar truck.love me some chevys.God bless y'all real good .
"let me play for you the sound of my people"
Still waitin for Cotten to do the WORM now that it's driving.....
Absolutely SICK! ...that giddy laugh throughout the video tells the story! HAHA Congrats on getting it this far!
How can I add more likes? This truck is unbelievable. Congrats to the crew for finishing it and thanks for taking us along for the ride!!!
The EPA is coming after us !!!! You guys have to promote this
They can't go after his truck because it will be grandfather in as a classic. The bill state's cars built 2016 til now
@@zcookie9272 That's just the beginning
@@zcookie9272 yup. Just like gun control they're trying to sneak their way into an overall ban of motorsports eventually.
21:40... “it sounds so good dude”. Understatement for sure.
Such a badass build!!
ive been fallowing you since the first roadkill but ive never seen you smile that much driving a car or truck
There’s a gentleman you may have worked with that has a motto” don’t get it right just get it running” . Lol that frieburger is a genius. Trucks killer!!
Great job guys 👍👍🇨🇱
Having all the homies come together to help is Radd, but you lucked out having a brother-in-law that is into all the same stuff so you can have a partner in crime for all your shenanigans!
The show shouldve been called Finnigan's Shenanigans
its no coincidence the sister looked for a man that was like her dad and finnegan looked to become a man much like his dad.
WOWZA!!! Finnegan,that is one BAD little truck....Can't wait to see it finished!
That giggle says it all , big congrats!!
Do you know, I've been watchin every video either Mike or David releases and and they make not being able to move my neck so much easier.
“Out of the basement into a real shop” they say as I am sitting on a power wheels deathwheeling a floor board out of my camaro and watching all of mikes fancy shit in mikes “basement” not mad just a little jealous but we all got to start somewhere
and you finished 5 seconds down the road from where i work...i go by where you guys were everyday...lol congrats
The sound of the truck is badass the team and all the trash talk keep it going guys
Can’t wait till Mike starting spraying sparks lol
I wonder if it would be possible to make a 6 speed that was straight cut on gears 1-5 and 6th gear was helical so it was quiet for highway driving.
Gotta be happy with that
Well done to all that helped finally get it running
Hahaha, I'm glad I'm not the only one who has to say "go around me" on a regular basis!
I’m hoping to get another 68 one of these days. Regret selling mine every day.
I want a Cotton GPS voice. 'I dunno, I'm just having fun.'
I agree... This needs to happen!
That 1 2 3 shift after the clutch slave hose was fixed was so sick
Gotta put a bench in it. Your kids will love it even more.
Killer! Who are the 5 people who dislike this video?! Are they broken 🤨
One was probably his wife for comparing a truck to his children being born... probably should have edited that one out but .... oh well
17:22 looks like someone was running out to yell at you.
I doubt it. they were checking their wrist...just out for a jog
The laughing of pure joy! Awesome.
I love Mike's expressions. You'd think he'd sprain his eyeballs he rolls them so much.
