The Brake and Clutch pedal rubber is really important! Worked a gas station 50 years ago wet boots on clutch or brake pedal missing the rubber or slick rubber is an accident waiting to happen.
That's a good looking '70. I like how the interior had turned out. It's close to how I want my truck to look. I had first watched this video last year, but was worth the watch again because I'm finally getting around to purchasing parts and tools to begin my work on my '68 C10. I've watched several of Dave's videos on sheet metal repair to suspension improvements, Blazer rear tank conversion, long bed to short bed conversion, one piece window upgrades, to interior upgrades. All of which I'd like to do on my pickup. Speaking of Blazer tank conversion I had ordered my tank kit just yesterday. 2:15 ...still like to save those (sill plates) to put them on a patina truck, or maybe one of my buddies can use them. "One man's trash is another man's treasure." 17:46 Tosses old sill plate over right shoulder.
Thanks for the video guys, makes me realize how doable it is to get my truck on the road once I get a new place with a garage. Can't wait. Red body white top c10, straight 6 with a 3 in the tree!
I wanna know more about that AC! I have a 72 C30 with no AC. It’s a daily driver and I live in AZ, so I’d really, REALLY like to see a video on how to put AC in my heavy Chevy.
What about the stock tank location? Any sound deadening advice about it? As far as how much to use or strategic places to add more strips? Thx in advance.
Ive been looking for the side window visor looking thing, and was wondering if they are still made. i have a 68 plymouth with them, and would like some for my 55 chevy truck. anyone know where i might find them, or even what they are actually called?
What did you use to mark the holes in the carpet? I've read people using drill bits covered with tape or heating up "punches", that burns the carpet to expose the holes.
Just about to do this myself. Brothers order is in! Just one question - I didn't see how you ran the wires for the rear speakers. Did those pass through the door sill or should those go under the carpet?
No harm in doing that. We dont recommend it due to weight, and expense, also the effectiveness doesn't necessarily increase by using more. With all that said, you can do it if you decide to without any negative effects.
Why didn’t you show the right hand side kick panel installation. You guys are bad about showing all the details; this is really bad on your credibility which sucks !
Steve, this video is an excerpt from a TV show where we are limited on time and it's mostly for entertainment. The videos produced in our studio show complete installs and every detail. If you had searched our channel you would have found an extensive library of how-to videos, probably even one that covers this exact installation.
The man knows what he is doing. It's international reference.

Dave Is a Real Perfectionist!!
Yessir!
I’m glad I saw this. My auto body guy said I didn’t need the heat matt since the carpet already has the insulation. Here your saying use both.
Best to double down and make it as comfortable as possible!
Dave, you sir, are the man
Thank you Jim!

Sounds like a cool truck, good luck with it!
Great video guys
Great videos😎👍
Thanks!
Just wish there videos like this for the 1987 Chevy R10. Everything I find is for the older trucks. 😢
I need the old stuff for my 68!
Fantastic! Love the look of this truck. Could you please share the suspension/ drop specs and tire/wheel combo? Many thanks, Gary
Sorry Gary, this was a customers truck and we don't know the specs on the drop or wheel/tire combo. Our apologies.

Lucky for you we have a video about that already: th-cam.com/video/Co-qMuLDr4M/w-d-xo.html
Could you tell me which color Blue carpet was used for the makeover I would greatly appreciate it
We call that Dark Blue
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV Thanks for the reply. I'm needing that exact carpet color and I really needed to be sure before I picked it up
@@moonrunner-01 The specific color is Dark Blue providing you're ordering it for a 60-72 Truck.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV Was this carpet also in 80/20 loop?
@@moonrunner-01 Yes it was.
Hhola buenas tardes srs de brothers, tengo una duda, existe un pisa alfombra para una apacje 1959?,
No la he podido encontrar en ningun sitio
Sí, visite este enlace y encontrará la alfombra para su Apache: www.brotherstrucks.com/Carpet-Rubber-Mats/products/1410/
Esa es la alfombra, ya la. Tengo, lo que yyo pregunto es si existe una vista en el borde del estribo
What about the stock tank location? Any sound deadening advice about it? As far as how much to use or strategic places to add more strips? Thx in advance.
Same amount of material applies there, and anywhere else. Minimal amount needed, vertical 1" strips up the rear of the cab would work well.

What did you use to mark the holes in the carpet? I've read people using drill bits covered with tape or heating up "punches", that burns the carpet to expose the holes.
We use a paint pen or chalk normally, then use a small Phillips head screwdriver or an Awl to punch through.
I'm 17 building my 72 silverado c10. I was wondering if you can let me know the size of the dash speakers pls I been looking for ever
The stock dash speaker is a 4x10
Just about to do this myself. Brothers order is in! Just one question - I didn't see how you ran the wires for the rear speakers. Did those pass through the door sill or should those go under the carpet?
We always run them down the sill.
Just out of curiosity is there any harm in fully covering the floor with the dynamat material? Also Dave is a rockstar
No harm in doing that. We dont recommend it due to weight, and expense, also the effectiveness doesn't necessarily increase by using more. With all that said, you can do it if you decide to without any negative effects.
