Thanks for the Video.... Great install. Just a safety suggestion... In the future when you use straps like that, C-clamp them to the forks so they don't slip and drop whatever you are moving... Been there and done that. Regards.
Wonder if taking the bumper and brackets off and sliding the tank in so the tank shelves are on top of the bottom half of the frame is an option? Bolts fall or are taken out, tank doesn't fall and can't be taken. Once the bed is on off course.
Hey Lucky, drill a hole at the end of each tyne, so you can drop a pin into them. Stops the straps sliding off the end of the forks and doesn't affect functionality. I used to fit aftermarket trays all the time, the pin saved some embarrassing discussions about damaged cab bulkheads....
noticed the AFR sticker on the forklift. guessing its been beefed up? couldn't see why you cant hot rod a fork lift lol. this shop truck is very motivational for me. I got a 68 C10 that im gonna be building.
I'd add a rubber strip between the aluminum tank and the steel frame rail. you get some funky corrosion when those two metals meet. Stainless hardware helps that situation as well!
Love it lucky..fuvkn love this beast man!!! Also what I really like is you did another video longer than your normal stuff .. Seems most vids are 5 to 7 minutes and every now and then you do 14 to 18 minutes and we really like those so I'm sure I'm not the only one that likes what you do and love the vehicles you drive.. Anyways thumbs up if lucky should have his own show or do longer vids lol. Just busting balls man no big deal but I do think there's a show there if you had another guy like Finnegan or Freiburger lmao ohhh what a show it be..maybe join road kill .love that episode..ok man stay safe and always remember never crushem restorem
Love your stuff! Side note, I also like how your exhaust is mounted. Do you get many fumes in the cab with it there? Looks clean and don’t need to run it near the relocated fuel tank either.
I'm curious about how the tank performs. I installed a similar tank from Rhodes Race cars and it is a disappointment. At 1/4 tank, i fill it and it only takes 9-10 gallons. Also baffles dont work as well at 1/4 tank, sump runs dry after a long right turn with excelleration. That's with running an external pump with EFI. I actually had more range and better performance with the in-cab tank.
I would have thought that the tank lip sat on top of the lower frame rail lip, but looking at it I can see it might be quite difficult to have it sit in there like that.
@Lucky's Garage Show - At the 4:47 mark, you really started movin' for an old guy! Way to go!!! But then you crapped out again at the 7:57 mark, oh well...
How you wire you fell cell up i put one in my dad's 63 and when you turn the switch on it goes way past full and you turn switch off it comes to half tank any help would be great
Classic performance products (CPP) Fits good easy install and good for a daily driver but after I added boost and driving a little harder in the corners I noticed the fuel pickup would go dry so tank needs more baffling for that kind of driving. I’m installing a Ricks Tanks in the near future.
@@luckysgarageshow Thank you for replying. Buying CPP products is a mistake we often make to save money. I think all of us C10 owners should do a class action lawsuit against CPP and also summit racing for selling inferior & unsafe auto parts.
Kenny Hall , They are custom made by Ken Esajian from Esajian wheels in orange California. They are 18 x 10. He has a video about getting them made a couple of months back.
Love how its a shop truck but posts n mods after mods(love the vids) bit its starting to become a pro touring type truck lets be real.. No hate just love an keep them coming lucky
hope they release the hotrod garage episodes soon... need more of this sort of stuff. i guess it would be more of a pain to film if they released it all at once this early in the year... so i wont get my hopes up
Since you are a electrical wizard can you please make a quick video about how to properly cut out old wires for sensors that you're not using when swapping Motors so I'm not just snipping them off and leaving them maybe with electrical tape on them like I have been doing for years I'm doing a motor swap into C10 right now I got a bunch of wires from old sensors I'm not using I'd like to do it right that would be amazing thank you I love all your videos
Chevy Land T.V , He got them custom made by Ken Esajian from Esajian wheels in Orange California. He has a video about getting them made a couple of months back. I think they are a kick ass looking wheel.
Totally Fake , everyone knows that there is a Tesla motor in there and there is no need for a fuel tank , I have a 67 C-10 small rear window , 292 straight 6 cylinder engine , 11 inch heavy duty clutch , 3 speed trans , 12 bolt rear end
Thanks for taking us along
John Lee thanks for watchin
Really want to see more video like this. Real car guy doing real car stuff. Thanks lucky
Thanks for the Video.... Great install. Just a safety suggestion... In the future when you use straps like that, C-clamp them to the forks so they don't slip and drop whatever you are moving... Been there and done that. Regards.
Yeah agree with you on that. Also should just use the straps not the ratchet end. Ask me how I know. 😜
Wonder if taking the bumper and brackets off and sliding the tank in so the tank shelves are on top of the bottom half of the frame is an option? Bolts fall or are taken out, tank doesn't fall and can't be taken. Once the bed is on off course.
"I guess I could slow down... " pan right, shakes head no. (For real!👍) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Best practical hotrodder ever
The shop truck sure has come a long way Lucky , phenomenal work . Cheers
Never enough C10 goodness... thank you Lucky !
Nice install Lucky. Hope you’re enjoying your weekend. Thank you.👍🏼🤘🏼😎

John is always smiling 😃 Lol good vibes.
Best part of the video is the look on John's face when he realizes you are filming 🤙
noticed the AFR sticker on the forklift. guessing its been beefed up? couldn't see why you cant hot rod a fork lift lol. this shop truck is very motivational for me. I got a 68 C10 that im gonna be building.
Totally enjoy it, Always learn something. Thanks Lucky
The shop truck is looking cool. The exhaust and wheels especially.
its crazy how far that thing has come good stuff lucky
Thing of beauty. Let the raodtrip commence!
Good stuff Lucky. Killing it. Man John is such a nice dude.
Nice job, dont scratch that bed lol👍👍
I'd add a rubber strip between the aluminum tank and the steel frame rail. you get some funky corrosion when those two metals meet. Stainless hardware helps that situation as well!
Hi Luckey any plans on getting a shop apprenice to pass down some of the great knowlegde you have learned over the years great conent as always
See!!!,,,Told ya!!. Nice work Lucky!

This is a very cool truck. A little trip to Mexico may be in order.
MrHevyshevy 🤓👍 si
" I guess I could have slowed down.....Nah." Awesome tagline- thanks Lucky
Love it lucky..fuvkn love this beast man!!!
Also what I really like is you did another video longer than your normal stuff ..

Those wheels and tires are sweet. Perfect choice.
king0cans Thanks...
I'm new to the channel and just loving the contents , I could only dream of a c10. And owning one
Emanuel Morales thanks for watchin
Love your stuff!
Side note, I also like how your exhaust is mounted. Do you get many fumes in the cab with it there? Looks clean and don’t need to run it near the relocated fuel tank either.
Thank you, Lucky
DAN SLEDGE My pleasure.... thanks for watchin
Very nice upgrade on the ol 67 C/10
You can get one of those fancy trashcans with wheels with the money you make off this video. 😎👍😜
Interested in seeing how you marked the bed floor for the filler and what cap combo you used.
The inevitable rolling cycle of system upgrades! 👍
Thanks Lucky ✌
Love that truck!
lucky should be President
Nice. I think I'll pick one up for my 79 c10
I'm curious about how the tank performs. I installed a similar tank from Rhodes Race cars and it is a disappointment. At 1/4 tank, i fill it and it only takes 9-10 gallons.

How much was the tank? Im looking for a great deal!
Nice. Thanks, Lucky!
Scottimus Garrett Thanks
I told a friend, I told an enemy. I'm subscribed, I hit the like button.
HELLRAISEHR 🤓🤘
just started watching you what rear suspension are you using wanna use it on my 67 step side
Jacob Smith QA1 front and rear
What angel did you put the float for tank did you end up moving the fill hole on tank just curious
I would have thought that the tank lip sat on top of the lower frame rail lip, but looking at it I can see it might be quite difficult to have it sit in there like that.
How do you fill it up, through a hole in the bed? What are the two other holes on top for, pressure and return?
What is that chassis for rite next to you with the ls already installed??.
..damn them sum big back tires..315?
@Lucky's Garage Show - At the 4:47 mark, you really started movin' for an old guy! Way to go!!! But then you crapped out again at the 7:57 mark, oh well...
😂
Thanks.. good job. stay outta trouble
Lucky, where you get that fuel line?! I like that lol.
Hey Lucky what happen to the 66 chevelle?
Lucky, how do you like the ride of the qa1 setup?
Fix N Fab Collision I’m extremely happy with it. Easy to adjust for track or street......
Biggest surprise for Me was that there was tread still on the rear Tires.
What is your tire and wheel sizes they look sick
Hey Lucky
What did you use for fuel line on the truck?
Nice work Mr Lucky!! By the way, what type of gear ratio do you run in the 12 bolt?
What wheel/tire combo is on there
18X10'S
How you wire you fell cell up i put one in my dad's 63 and when you turn the switch on it goes way past full and you turn switch off it comes to half tank any help would be great
Looks good
I thought the tanks on the c10s were in the cab behind the front seat. Just saying. Probably relocated prior correct me if I'm wrong
R Ching Yes you are correct. That would be the mod if you have one. Thanks for watchin..
Thanks lucky !
Who did you order the tank from? I need to do a fuel tank relocation on my 65 C10.
Classic performance products (CPP)
Fits good easy install and good for a daily driver but after I added boost and driving a little harder in the corners I noticed the fuel pickup would go dry so tank needs more baffling for that kind of driving. I’m installing a Ricks Tanks in the near future.

I have the exact same installation tool in my shop 😃
What kind of wheels r those and what size also the size tires loving the truck
Kenny Hall , They are custom made by Ken Esajian from Esajian wheels in orange California. They are 18 x 10. He has a video about getting them made a couple of months back.
Awesomeness !
Drill a hole in each tyne, and thread it for a ball stud for a trailer hitch...
Love how its a shop truck but posts n mods after mods(love the vids) bit its starting to become a pro touring type truck lets be real.. No hate just love an keep them coming lucky
Yea what i tried to say lol 💚
Where did you order that fuel tank?
What should pinion angle be...
My dad always says "warsh the car" lol
hope they release the hotrod garage episodes soon... need more of this sort of stuff. i guess it would be more of a pain to film if they released it all at once this early in the year... so i wont get my hopes up

What is this "slow down" thing you speak of?
Gas tank installation fixture;
Plastic garbage can, two pieces of scrap wood.
Gotchya...
Any chance the tank you took out is for sale? I assume it's long gone, I know this vid is old.
long gone. Thanks for watchin
@@luckysgarageshow Been watching you since the episode of putting the mini wheel tubs in the 66. Thx for the reply Luck!
link to the wheels and suspension?
everyone needs a forklift !!
I guess I could have slowed down a No I like your thinking
Hey lucky I was wondering what kind of wheels you're running on the 67 . I would like to get me a set for my 75.
Chevy Land T.V , He got them custom made by Ken Esajian from Esajian wheels in Orange California. He has a video about getting them made a couple of months back. I think they are a kick ass looking wheel.
@@MJTAUTOMOTIVE thanks yup that's why I want a set.
I want it, I need it
👍👍😀
‘Maybe they weren’t honking to say hi that day!’
“ I could’ve just slowed down, .... uh no.
talk about Do It Yourself...
Lucky, buy some suspenders. You can thank me later...
"Nah" ;-)
Just me the tank look small then OG tank
Wanna sell me your old tank? Lol
Totally Fake , everyone knows that there is a Tesla motor in there and there is no need for a fuel tank ,
I have a 67 C-10 small rear window , 292 straight 6 cylinder engine , 11 inch heavy duty clutch , 3 speed trans , 12 bolt rear end
I think the bed fill tanks from LMC are to small.
