I’m a huge fan of cheap date. 2wd short stepsides have always been cool.

I enjoy your videos because you're not a hack, like some of those other channels

I found that farm implement paint is awsome for your undercarriage, it's a all in one paint/ primer one coat that thick and creamy and dries to a hard finish. I used a paint brush to apply it, it was very budget friendly. 👍

That's going to be one fine-looking ride. I agree with you as far as making it a dependable driver before you do cosmetics. Keep up the great work and the awesome content 👍✌️🇺🇲

I love the Mag wheels

Just a old man now, used to mechanic a lot as a kid and the diesel became the trade and of course fab work. When you pulled the diff cover on the rear axle, if I remember right, the axle tube on passenger side had stamped into it the true history of the date of manufacture plus ratio of the unit plus if it was a locker or not. Sometimes really rusty and hard to bring it back to where it could be read. I grafted parts just like you and ran the ford 4x4 trucks with big block for racing and having a ton of fun when they were brand new.... much easier to read them then. No matter if its a dana or other, should be stamped into housing and just off of the side where the diff is located. Great video and love a good build, and love chevys as well.

I love your parts trucks (Suburbans) I had one it was worth redoing but I was young and let it go… I now have a 68 plain jane my 5th one and never letting this go barely any rust… inside kick panels.. but of course I have not removed the rocker panel chrome trim… it’s originally light blue but has a super construction yellow paint on it…(mustard) like this emoji 😂 love what you do..!!!..

Found your channel by seeing the K5500, nice find. Subscribed and this popped up, let’s just say this is definitely is my style.

I am a new subscriber. I had a 1966 and a 1972 stepside. The 1972 was my favorite. I am looking forward to see this build!

Wicked fun and educational makes me want to go work on stuff! love it

Just found your channel. I'm looking forward to the rest of this build

Watched your rare 1 of 2 Napco. Then saw cheap date. Like your style and advice, not bad for a young guy in the rebuilding business. Next I subscribed, keep it coming. From an old fart also in Washington.

Too cool man good little rig when finished

You are pretty lucky to get that engine/transmission and the multiple donor vehicles so cheap.

Keep with it brah! love da channel!

I have a 1970 C/10 longed, I was going to restore it when I retired . But I am handicapped now. I had a 454 to put in it,but ended up selling it. So the truck is still sitting in my barn.

Just found your channel. Very cool build.

With the big block, I personally would box the frame .

You might wanna check market place in Kingman AZ...there's a guy selling rustfree truck parts

That burban is still cleaner the half the trucks in Michigan

It rolls. I say it's complete enough. 😅

Where do you guys find all those trucks? In the 80s, they were everywhere ..

That crumpled up. Grille makes. For good wall art

I would love to find a truck like that

Love the stepside. Is giving me the drive to go out in the garage and work on my 65 step. What size are your slots and tires you have on your tow rig? I need that exact look for my 85 Sierra c3500 crew cab.

I love those slotted rims👍🏻.you paid 350 for it to.

I will trade you 1970 Gmc grill forA 1969 Gmc gill, dull head lights blinkers in the grill, lower ends thanks BigAl California.

Rostolian Turbo cans in white. Take 5 cans to pay the entire truck.

Frame sitting high can be deceptive added. Weight of sheet metal interior etc will settle. It. Down

That chipped tooth should be all right, unless the whole tooth is cracked.

Change the grille to 71. 72

Personally, you're budget bill. Just as good as the guy that got the frame next to yours. Right now, couldn't really tell the difference. You're gonna very good job, you should be proud of yourself. I'm a Chevy guy always have been. I love my Chevy's supposed to be older ones. My first crack with the 70s recorder. Turned to wheel drive worst be truck.

What headers are those? they seem to fit really well.

Take it easy and remove the glass

I know your in wash. Im in north idaho,, you wouldnt have a good ochre 70 chev hood do ya you'd part with do ya 😂? Got a was green now black one id part trade haha. I wasnt the one that painted it black.

Just found your channel, I’ve had a lot of these trucks yrs ago, there just so out of reach now money wise
