Thank you!

It’s on the list, for now I’m going to check the shop and see what I have I can use.

Can’t go wrong with an LS, love it or hate it they’re pretty great

Already in the works bud. Stay tuned

@@outlawupholstery yesssss

Yes definitely! I was pretty scared just pulling this Stepvan from the weeds. Highly impressed!

Not sure, I was amazed myself. Turned it over by hand just to see if it was tight and it turned right over. Pulled the plugs and they weren’t bad either. Built them to last back then for sure!

@@outlawupholstery that's amazing. I've seen others start up old sitting engines and I've never been able to understand how it wasn't a block of rust. One of life's mysteries I guess!

@@BernWag chromed walls I dunno

That’s amazing. This Stepvan was parked in 99. I checked oil, cleaned the points, added a little fuel and fired right up. I’ve seen newer engines have to be tore down after a few years of sitting.

I’ve been looking for one for a long time. I was hoping for a stub nose but this one will do. Keep an eye out you might find one laying around

@@outlawupholstery yes im keeping my eyes open for one specially a short one like yours it look so cool

@@outlawupholstery OMG i just bought a 1978 P10 steel body, i can't believe i got one!

@philipthemechanic5782 congratulations! You’ll have to share your progress. I’ve looked for years and found one in a field. Currently going through the wiring and getting some new tires for mine

Hey bud, I’m sitting on a s10 chassis. If I had it to do over again I would’ve left the stock chassis. 8 years ago they were real big with s10 swaps. Easier to get parts for brakes, rotors, etc at the time

@@outlawupholsterythanks for the reply. I picked up a ls swap job and I ordered some “bolt on” 47-54 Chevy truck ls mounts thinking this would be an easy drop in swap but after pulling the motor I’m seeing that these are in fact not bolt in unless I change the crossmember to mustang2, which requires manual rack and new steering column and control arms and sway bar and idk what else. I just feel bad that I have to go down a rabbit hole with the customer. I expected around $6k to do a basic swap but it seems it may be more.

@Desert_guy I always plan on worst case. It’s never as easy as possible. My first swap I was able to do real cheap but there’s things I would do differently. My problem is I had a person I gave parts to to pull the donor engine, harness, pedal and pump and that turned into a lot of damage and missing parts. So this one has turned into a little more that what I planned but hey it’s part of the journey.

@@outlawupholstery I ended up setting the motor and trans in. The only issue i see is the steering box. I heard I can put spacers and move it over and the header should clear. Changing to a manual rack and pinion would require more suspension work and parts. I’m gonna try the spacer method and see how w it goes. So far it’s a fun project

@Desert_guy good luck with it buddy! I’d love to see you get it going. Just remember small steps become huge progress over time. Just don’t stop!

In my experience once the material is sagging and you try and Reglue using the adhesive I use in shop it bleeds through. If you use aerosol adhesive, one good warm day will come loose again. I hope it stays up though. Good luck bud

Not really sure on the history. The door just has a badge on it that says 2500, title says Chevrolet Cheyenne. Could’ve had a door swapped at one time

Thank you, just some old stuff I had laying around to throw together!

Thank you

Hey buddy, idk what’s wrong with it I’m new to doing this UA-cam gig myself so I’ve messed something up on commenting and stuff but I have a few squares and others I’ll be introducing to my channel but this one was by far one of the easiest! Having an issue with my choke currently but the other video is almost done.. stay tuned and I appreciate the comment also have a few how to’s planned too

Go to your local junk yard. You’ll usually find about 2-4 gen 4s at any yard in my experience

I use a DAP weld wood contact adhesive. I’ve never personally had good luck with aerosol spray adhesives. It looses its bond when heat is applied and the weld wood works great. It’s pretty expensive though

I spoke to GM on this truck and they said that in 88-91 the 3500 trucks were still used in the square body lineup. This dually is 89 and not all duallys had top markers. Depends on how the truck was ordered. I was confused I’ve never seen a dually badged as a 2500 but from what General Motors told me that was the reason.

@@outlawupholstery sweet, thank you for that knowledge. I appreciate it. Now I know.🤙🏽💯

@@outlawupholstery and thank you for reaching out. 💯

No worries buddy

Godbless you as well. Goodluck

That was a standard gray headliner material, should be able to pick up at your local fabric store. Make sure to get the older style headliner.. newer looks like it has a design or holes and it doesn’t do well with stretching around curves and in dips.

Goodluck buddy, take your time and you’ll do fine.

Goodluck!

We talk a little about it in the next video. Look for the clip with josh under the truck. We will be doing a video on vin/package & possibly talking to the previous owners of the truck.
