Dude I'm really happy for you. I'm about 4 months behind you and can't wait for mine to be back on the road. Cheers from Seattle
I've really enjoyed following this build. As soon as I have seen that you have posted, I immediately watch. I would definitely watch your garage series! Thank you for your inspiration and keep the camera rolling!
Was excited to see you rolling! A few more things to get corrected. Look forward to seeing more videos!
So happy for you to get to take your first drive after all of your work. Thanks for taking us along. Been following your build for a while now which made the first ride more exciting. Looking forward to "Dream Garage" series.
Congrats on the first drive! Been following your build for a while and has been inspiring for me with my own 67 longbed. Good luck with the move!
Man, been a long time coming. The truck looks great. You will have everything buttoned up before you know it and next year is your year! Good luck with the move and we look forward to the garage series.
Congrats, awesome job. Good luck with the move.

Still lots more to do on this thing
That first shake down run got my heart pumping! I can’t wait to get my 2wd k5 on the road.
Great job. Your determination and hard work has really paid off! Just recently finished my C10 rebuild/ls swap and there's always kinks to work out but finally she drives great. Love your build. Keep it up. Look forward to more vids.
Good stuff man. Glad to be tag along
Sounds great, definitely would watch garage series!
Congrats man!!! I've been keeping an eye on this build for a couple years. Well done.
I really dig your channel, down to earth car/truck dude. No overhyped BS... I would love a garage series, I am about to do the same. '66 C10, and new garage.
Count on it
Enjoying the whole series even though I'm late on it. Glad when people throw in what didn't work perfectly, gives us novices some hope! haha Thank you

Awesome buddy congrats almost there !!!
Grats, lot of work pays off 👍
Congratulations!!!
Great job!!! Takes a lot of determination!
Great first drive man. Congrats on everything and thank you for sharing your build!
Thanks man
Congratulations Bro! Your channel has inspired me to work on my CST-10 and I'm proud to say I drove her to the gas station yesterday after she sat for almost 20 years. My brakes are sketchy AF but lt felt damn good to drive her. I really admire all the work you put into your truck Man. My build is old school (na 350) for now but I hope to go LS in the near future. Keep up the good work, I'll keep watching. 👍
Awesome 😎 even when they’re far from done they’re a lot of fun to drive
Would definitely like to see a dream garage series! Hope to buy a home in the next couple years so that would help with some early ideas.
You got it
Great job. Beautiful truck. Cant wait to get my 71 GMC done..
Love the looks of your shop.
That was cool buddy Great job. Once you get those bugs worked out she’s gonna be a lot of fun to drive
I would like to see your dream garage vids
Good luck with the move ✌️
Nice work man! Hope that trans comes around
Awesome job on your truck! Videos are great! Thank you!

Garage series for sure, looking forward to it!

It won’t be too extravagant
I'm painting my frame right now 💪💪
I have a 72 GMC with a 6.0 ls swap, 6.0 truck engine with ported and polished 243 heads. Nice job.
Heck yeah bro I’ll watch !
Congrats, I can't wait until that day with my 1972. Good luck with the bugs.
thanks man
@@paulkc10 You're welcome. I've been on the fence about purchasing some black widow mufflers for my truck but this video just sealed the deal, man that sounds great. Thanks for sharing your progress, i've enjoyed the journey.. Take care.
I love them. You won’t be disappointed
I am just starting my 1970 C10 project. You said you were in Michigan also, I am in Edwardsburg. Down near South Bend IN. Nice job!
Nice I’m up by Grand Rapids. Grew up in St Joe/Benton Harbor
Lookin good!
Who would not like the Idea of a dream garage series ....
Garage Series sounds great to me...
Awesome!
Heck yeah on dream garage I just got me a garage after 20 yrs and I've already use some ideals from ur garage as it is now so yeah I vote yes on dream
Garage lol sorry finger hit send button to soon lol
You got it 👍🏼
Great content
awesome!!!
Looks like you should address the seam sealer on the cabs roof, everything else looks amazing tho! Congrats, your videos will help me a ton on my 68 I’m starting this winter
Good eye! That’s on the list for the winter
Yes sir!!!
Really enjoying watching your build videos on this truck. I know these are couple years old but I just recently found them. Why didn’t you do it like on all the shows? First test drive gets wide open throttle and burnouts???? Jk it’s nice to see the realistic deal
I just watched Matt Murdock build a cool ass truck. Nice!
Put heat in the shop so we are able to work through the winter 🥶 on our C20
Cool!
Might need to get it tuned to your tire height, and rear end ratio. Which will adjust your shifting....
It’s possible. It improved gradually as I put some miles on it. So we’ll see
Congratulations! Must be a good feeling! Are those Morimoto headlights? They look remarkably like the ones I put on my GF's Jeep.
They are not. They’re based off that design tho (fraction of the price)
@@paulkc10 I caught the Morimoto Sealed7 1.0's on closeout for $99/ea. The newer version is a lot more.
Yesss sir
Hey Paul,
I've followed your journey and have to say, I've loved this build and looked forward to each new video you've posted. My question is this, did you come up with your list that you've marked off along the way or is it one that you printed out off of a site? My wife and I both bought C10's. A 71 and 72 and both are already SWB. I'd like to have a list for direction like you have.
I just made it up myself. It’s a constantly evolving thing with a life of its own. I have a version of it on my Instagram but it’s at a certain point of my project but may be a good starting point.
Did you ever flip the trailing arm brackets on the crossmember?
GIVE us more c10 content!!!!
Always enjoy your videos. How do you like the cpp steering gear box? Everything seem ok?
It’s fantastic. The quick ratio makes it feel much more modern.
Paul, nice build but I have a question. As a dealer tech, add lowering steering knuckles and springs, places the tire so close to the fender. Is the length of compression limited to keep from hitting the fender? Is the more about the bumpers hitting inside the SLA assembly or what? It seems to me that something will hit or loose some ride quality? I am serious, I don’t know.
I had a tiny welded chain steering wheel on a sub-compact I was driving onto the rack one day. Nothing else other than wheels with 1 1/2” adaptors behind them. When I went over the rack, the bump steer almost broke my hands. Even with OEM rack & pinion but + offset wheels & adaptors, things change. PS. Never looked at one or rode in one. Thanks.
I’m not having any rubbing issues
Did u run that 12v wire from the trans to a keyed relay? Mines sounded like that and found not to be having power to tht specific pin in the connector.
Which wire are you talking about?
Mine was the pink wire from the trans plug.
Hey I have a 72 that is pretty nice am gonna do a stereo install and want to know how many boxes of sound deading you used I've got one box of killmat??
Just 1
I am enjoying your videos on your restoration. I have 71 C10 I’m going to start on. Can I ask where you purchase your body parts?
I’ve bought from all of them but Auto Metal Direct is the best IMO
Awesome! What did you use for throttle cable? Doing a 6.0ls swap on my 68 and haven’t been able to figure it out, thanks.
36” GM throttle cable. You could definitely get away with a shorter one depending on your intake manifold
@@paulkc10 are you using the stock pedal? Theres a metal piece sticking out in the fire wall and im not sure If I use it or change it.
Yea pedal and lever arm are all stock
@@paulkc10 its just a normal truck manifold. Thanks for the help
Did you do all the work on this yourself? How long did you work on this build from start to finish?
Yea did everything myself. Worked on and off for 4 years
@@paulkc10 That is awesome I am in the process of building a 67 Chevy C10. Is there anything that you ran into that you learned and wished you would have done something different?
How tall are you the cab looked kinda cramped. I am looking at buying a c10 or f100 was told the f100 has more leg room but want a c10
6’1”
Where did you get that radio delete gauge cluster? Thats awesome.
Radio delete plate (my truck never had a radio) and a hole saw
Was the back of the bed the only part that was cut? On the bed
I did the front a little different so it wouldn’t have a weld seam. I made a video about it
What do u do for a living?
are those jeep lights?
What kind of suspension are you running on front and back
2.5” drop spindles and 3” lowering springs up front. 5” springs and 2” blocks in the back
what year? I have a 67 and wondering about your lug pattern is it 6 or 5 lug?
70. It’s 6 lug 6x139.7
@@paulkc10 where did you get wheels ive been looking around
Black Rhino
2nd gear take off?
Hi Paul where did u source the LS Motor?
Facebook marketplace. Semi-local
On your description its says 5/7 drop but you installed 3/5 springs. Whats the drop?
2” drop spindles and 3” springs in front. 5” drop springs and 2” blocks in the back.
Awesome thanks
Oh man. I hope you didn't burn up any clutches in the trans. Sounds like it was just low trans fluid but it should not rev like that, unless you got a massive stall speed torque converter, but even then you wouldn't see that much slip. I would not drive it again until you get this fixed. Couple of things. You have 2 switches under the dash on steering column. Brake Switch and NSS Switch. If your brake switch has 4 connections, the furthest away from the switch are the TCC side(not hot when brake applied), your torque converter wires should be plugged into those. Front set towards the actual switch is the brake switch(hot when brake applied). This can also cause issues with your torque converter if you don't have this connected properly. Secondly, your NSS switch is connected to your backup lights, ignition switch, starter. This keeps your vehicle from starting in reverse. Pretty important. Make sure you have this connected correctly. I wish I could get you my email so I can help. I have diagrams and etc. if you needed them for this stuff. But more importantly, truck looks great, your almost there!
It’s definitely low on fluid after checking that. So that’s first. I’ll have to double check my wiring for the other stuff.
Low fluid for sure let it warm up to temperature then check the fluid truck is looking good
Is that a longbed with the rear chopped
12” between the wheels and 8” behind
Congrats...I think you need better door mirrors. But other than that looks great !
I can’t see shit out of them haha
@@paulkc10 LOL I couldn't either ;)
Curious what is the name of the color of your truck?
Champagne mist
What size wheels?
20x9.5” +15 offset
What year c10 is that ?
‘70
What's the color
Any plans on carpet?
Yes over the winter carpet is going in
@@paulkc10 okay another question Im I stalling carpet here real soon, do you have any good forum on how exactly it lays in their O haven’t had much luck. If not it doesn’t matter. Love the truck!
If it’s not on 67-72chevytrucks.com I’d be surprised
toooooooo much converter!
A- you put a stall in a truck that doesn't come close to requiring a stall.
B- all that work to cut a hole for the exhaust to exit the side
C- both of those things make you a an idiot.
U need to ditch them ugly headlights!
You buyin?
@@paulkc10 dont need to i already have a number of non hitious halogen lights that fit a 69 c10
