Apparently his mind control powers are working on you since he is making you watch against your will. I would rather watch an episode of Mortski than most full length movies. Looks like you would too.
I keep seeing someone's comments criticizing how long your videos are. I just have to say, I LIKE the detail you go into! Even going and picking these rigs up. At nearly 60 years old, I still learn something useful now and again. I love Duff and I think your interaction with Mojo is really cool. I'm sure he likes being able to come and work on this stuff to keep his mind and body going. You seem like you really enjoy his company as well. I hope someone still values my company that much when I'm his age. (Getting there quickly) Anyway, for all the haters, it's really simple, DONT WATCH! As for me, I'll keep watching. If I have to do it in two sessions, big deal. Thanks for the entertainment.
As you were going through your inspection, I could see myself bringing you a vehicle that I just bought. All excited about it. And then sitting in the corner with my head hanging low as you told me everything wrong with it!!
You are NOT A QUITER great video and really shows when you set out to do something you do it I even thought about having a sandwich to celebrate with you. Really enjoyed this video.
Holy crap! The grafting of the C10 chassis absolutely was done by Ray Charles 😂 through all your hours of diagnostic testing you finally figured it out. Congrats on getting it to run. Boy did you open up a bucket of worms on this truck. I'm sure you're going to have it moving and stopping on its own power. Overall I mean it doesn't look bad. Thanks for another awesome video and keep up the good work 👍✌️🇺🇲
I gotta' say, you were much kinder and tolerant about the build than I expected. I wrote it off as a parts truck when I saw the frame splice, the E brake chain and hose clamp were just the cherry on top. Duff knows what's up.
Studske You F*cking Rock ! And Duff Too ! Middle of the night and you post a cool vid on a badass old truck for a retired guy to watch till he passes out on couch ! 👊😎👍 The cobbled mess just means it'll give ya that much more love when you give it enough to save it from the crusher and give it a second life .
Oh Yeh !! Thank you so much for that Mortske Monday .That 53 looked like it was going to be a real problem but with your knowledge of chevies the unknowns were overcome and it came out with better options and a bright future for its next owner . Loved the video and your sense of humor is second to none . Till next time , stay safe , be well , Give Duff Dog a treat or a pat om his head , Stuart in Ontario ..
A better swap in my opinion for these A.D. trucks, is using an early dodge Dakota. Came with a v8, rack and pinion and disc brakes. Either way good score you got there. I’m sure you’ll make it right.
I was only Half paying attention, but when I looked up and saw you turning the key on a column sitting on the floor and the truck started... My brain exploded 🤯
Take a long hard look at it people, that's what clear coat looks like over patina. Every time! Just say NO to clear coat!! Awesome video Sir Morticus! Enjoying my Monday morning Mortske and Duff.
@@Jason1975ism I had a set of wheels that I painted silver. I had used flattener in my clear coat as per the manufacturers instructions. Still came out shiny. Let it set a week, ran a Scotchbrite pad over it and got the results I wanted (satin). Still look good after 3 yrs.
40:11 have to dipstick you with this one😊! Custom working emergency brake! It's a working unit works😅. Safety first, I have to say that it's better than none or invisible brake cables. Twaaaap, Jimmy!😅😊
Sir Mortske, I would like nothing more than to watch you do electrical troubleshooting, on this fabulous plug and play 53 Chevy / S10 swap, with a TBI small block! Fun Fun! Love your work and videos😊
I did a 52 GMC a few years ago and still have a ton of original trim. The hardest part I needed was the cover on the front of your radiator which is completely different from the Chevy 3100. I drove 5 hours to Fresno and the guy had 2 of them. He could have asked 1k and I would have paid him but when I showed him what I was building, he gave it to me for $100. One of the nicest car/truck people I've ever met. Please share when you finish this build.
You just proved Uncle Tony from Uncle Tony's Garage spot on correct about aftermarket EFI systems. That was an indordinate amount of work for a low pay-off. But, thanks for sharing as everyone should learn from this.
That thing was a mess mortski!!! Thanks for making a nightmare ,at least entertaining and light hearted through it all. Your a real inspiration for more pasience!!!
I literally get GIDDY with glee when someone calls me and wants me to diagnose and repair electrical issues on anything! 🤓 Cars, trucks, hybrid cars & trucks, semis, heavy equipment, boats, snowmobiles, sxs's , etc etc, i absolutely adore an electrical challenge! I'd rather be sitting in miles of wires than change so much as one spark plug! LoL
You can easily test those gm distributor modules. Take a 12 volt test light connected to 12 volt positive and touch the probe to either of the pick up coil leads on the module with the pickup disconnected. Should see spark at coil and injector pulse everytime you take the probe off
Amazing that you got this one running; great job troubleshooting all the gremlins in this beast. I would name it “Pepe” (as in Pepe le Pew) due to the skunk decal.
Me and my bud are rebuilding a 93 step side, and we took out 305 and putting in a 350, and watching you help me work on the truck and make things so much better and know what I’m doing
I had to write one more comment, but I just wanted to say you are WAY gooder now with the proper harness inside that truck. Things will be SO much betterish now! It'll just work. You now just have a gmc tuck with all the same stuff under the hood and in the cab. No guessing.. AND you can put ANYTHING that works with an OBS Chevy - which I'm pretty sure is like the most modified truck in the world when it comes to wiring. So much better than it was..
Good morning to you two, Mr. Mortske. Back to finishing the video as I continue to try and help by watching and commenting as we go on watching and finishing the video as I am not able always to just sit down and watch it from start to finish. Being on call due semi service can be a challenge for everything especially if you need rest and/or sleep.
As one who has seen a few projects take an unexpectedly long time due to all manner of things, one of the LAST things I would be purchasing is a new set of wheels and tyres to go on the rig. Wheels and OLD tyres - yeah, sure, but don't bother with the new tyres until she's just about to go on the road. With tyres these days cracking, hardening up and generally being shot to drive on after an average of 7 years or so, why pay for them before you know you're gonna use them before they are useless? That truck has good potential, but a lot of work. Less so now that you've found its Achilles heel though, eh. With all the bullshittery having been done to the chassis and (although it IS workable), it's not being the greatest for moving forward on, if you were building this truck for yourself, would you still be thinking about replacing he front end with a Mustang II subframe?
Great video! I have a little experience with these old GM pickups.. Firstly, pre-1950 had turn down door handles with NO wing window. The 51 had turn down door handles and a wing window. 52 on had wing window and push button door handles. The stock GMC radiator fit inside the core support and had a little curved filler neck to add coolant. The Chevy pickups radiator bolts onto the core support. This is because the GMC six (228, 248, 279, 302) was a little longer than the Chevy six. If you get a chance, look at a stock GMC grill and radiator support. They are built LOTS heavier than the Chevys. I fixed up a 51 Chevy years ago. I used a 9" rear from a 75 Lincoln Mark 5 with rear discs. The width was just right. I put a disc brake kit on the front from CCP, and used a rebuilt master cylinder from the Lincoln in the stock Chevy location. With the stock pedal I did not need a power booster and the brakes worked awesome. I even used the Lincoln proportioning valve. I bored a 261 Chevy .030, mated it to a GM MYA6 4 speed transmission (4th gear overdrive) and with 3.50 gears, I was turning 2200 rpm at 65 mph, getting around 18-20 mpg. Keep up the good work!
Thank for giving us the viewer you mechanical insight as you take us thru your fixes and “opportunities”. Somewhere in one of your videos, you mention a SPILL PROOF FUNNEL KIT. Where can that be find. I’ve found that somewhere along the way, funnels don’t sit and stay where you want them without you constant attention, or there will be a “CLEAN-UP IN AISLE 3” as an additional step, none of us planned on when dealing with liquids. Thanks for your content, and I like your 4-legged partner who’s always got your back.
Now that, is a nice looking pickup!! But hey, I'm just an ordinary french canadian guy that knows nothing about cars...but loves your channel. Keep it up Mortske! Merci!
@@braxtonnelson5375 all I've seen is the honor system. But I don't like eating deer enough to hit one with my truck on purpose. I've heard stories about fights starting over a deer carcass when it was struck by more than one vehicle.
The section where you are talking about brakes reminds me of the one about flying - take offs are optional, landings are mandatory. I have new respect for you sir after your your thoughts on brakes and steering. Uncle Tony's garage had an episode on the crap work people do on restorations.
very generous of you to show all this, as if i had my hands in it! I miss that trouble shooting and the great feeling of accomplishment. Thanks again. Great show. I love the Duff dogs' vintage color fine leather nose haha, Take care. Also like to see your Dad, he's seen it all. Reminds me of my Dad who passed in 2019 at 100 yrs old! I learned to be manual because of him. Cheers.
Because of one of your vids, I have now been buying Baldwins after using NAPA for a long time! Have not changed the oil yet, but soon. Loved the last vid on the rust. Had same problem with my 351-someone overhauled and did not replace the freeze plugs, and they rusted out-had to flush the block with a hose. BTW 3 cheers for the full length movie vids. Happy new year!
I'm going to disagree with the pinned comment winner of the week Mortske. You're probably my favorite enginerd on the internet who also is good at fixing everyone's mistakes.. Thanks for taking the deep dive into this thing, all the points you've shown so far (I'm 40 minutes in) this is GREAT information that so many could learn from. I sure hope you do take the time to fix this 'project' and get it safely on the road. It'll be a fun project.. Thanks for the videos man, you're the best!
That’s a sweet truck man! I would have happily bought that! I hope it sticks around the channel. Be a sweet off season truck to drive to keep your uncles white one out of the snow
Hey Mortske, just thought I'd give my 2 cents based off of these early computerized ignition systems (based on your comments from 1:27:00) It seems to me (and granted I've worked on fords with their 80s distributor ignition systems) that the reason these fails so much in the 80s is due to the fact that they're just heat soaked so often being near the block, causing the electronic components to go. For Fords and their TFI Modules in the 80s this is something that fails so often people have manually moved their TFI ignition module to the firewall or the fender to prevent it from getting as heat soaked (this is for the 302s, limas, etc) This would explain why its already been replaced once and why you're replacing it again. Thanks for the great video!
Cool project . Will be fun to watch it come to fruition . Note - you can buy off the shelf 12v to 6v step down converters for less than 20 bj KS to keep 12v system and still use 6v acceasories like that cool heater fan . good stuff as always .
I don’t know how you managed to do this, but your timing is excellent and spot on with the TBI troubleshooting, that’s what I’m looking at for fun this week, and maybe even next as well, thank you! Just for giggles, there also seems to be a “feature” in the ECM that stops power to the fuel pump, in case you have an oil pressure sensor that is worn out and shows no, or too low pressure, but you bypassed that! Kept me busy for a while!
Wiring, spent 2 days on Chevy 7500 brake switch wire diagnose to blinker switch not working in between. Electrical nightmares with all the fun times!!! Also never heard u say needs fuel tank and pump with everything else needs after starter working. Lol
Hey Mortske put your long johns and electric socks on ! It's Sunday night and the weather is predicting -55 temp in your area tomorrow !!! ❄️🥶❄️🥶❄️🥶❄️🥶❄️
Damn you got patience for that one I hate messing with some one else's wiring nightmare ugh been there too many times I think I would have gone to the other wiring when the pins were wrong just because I'm lazy and not patient enough for all that you the man tracking through all that
Just me, but I think you should buy a PRO-JECT ,from Dede, a build the absolute perfect build, wit some puddin touches, an present it to us as the perfect Mortske build. Bahahahaha. But for real. Thanks for all your videos man. An knowledge you share ! Saves me time and money Bruhda!!
DYE that dash Mr. Mortske. You can get vinal Dye at any Automotive paint store. Take a piece of the dash you are trying to match and the will take care of the mix. It usually dries Darker, not much but some. so dont freak if this happens. See Ya. Like the content real well. Keep up the good work.
I do think I would have ensured the ECM/PCM was well grounded before aiming the parts cannon in various and assorted directions, since the completion of the ground circuit is the signal to pulse the injectors.
DO YOU SUPPOSE!!!! That you can make content that takes less time to watch than a full length movie???? You are not that interesting!!
Yet here you are, back again!
Apparently his mind control powers are working on you since he is making you watch against your will. I would rather watch an episode of Mortski than most full length movies. Looks like you would too.

Hey Mortske, just thought I'd give my 2 cents based off of these early computerized ignition systems (based on your comments from 1:27:00)
It seems to me (and granted I've worked on fords with their 80s distributor ignition systems) that the reason these fails
so much in the 80s is due to the fact that they're just heat soaked so often being near the block, causing the electronic components to go.
For Fords and their TFI Modules in the 80s this is something that fails so often people have manually moved their TFI ignition module to the firewall
or the fender to prevent it from getting as heat soaked (this is for the 302s, limas, etc)
This would explain why its already been replaced once and why you're replacing it again.
Thanks for the great video!
Had a dam good time watching. I learn something every week iam still a little cornfused about that distributor problem. Have a great week
Glad to hear it! Distributor wasn't the issue.
Your 2 hour videos are fine, no matter what trollites bray. I appreciate this one and keep them coming!
I appreciate that
The 53 5 window!! Nice!!
We had a TBI rotor stick like that once too. We found two different inner diameters when we bought a new one from the parts store.
Interesting
Good video! Especially liked the first half or so, a great primer on how NOT to clip a late '40s/early '50s GM pickup!! What a mess..............
Couldn't agree more!
Me and this truck were born the same year 1953 it was a good year.😊
I agree 💯 percent a Mustang swap would be the way to go . Nice little rig
Thanks for another Mortske Monday! Thanks for the editing Chin. Im sure Im not the only one to look forward to it every time 🐾🍺
Cool project . Will be fun to watch it come to fruition . Note - you can buy off the shelf 12v to 6v step down converters for less than 20 bj KS to keep 12v system and still use 6v acceasories like that cool heater fan . good stuff as always .
Thanks for the info!
I don’t know how you managed to do this, but your timing is excellent and spot on with the TBI troubleshooting, that’s what I’m looking at for fun this week, and maybe even next as well, thank you!
Just for giggles, there also seems to be a “feature” in the ECM that stops power to the fuel pump, in case you have an oil pressure sensor that is worn out and shows no, or too low pressure, but you bypassed that! Kept me busy for a while!
Good luck!
That is a good lookin rig thanks again Mortsky.
Wiring, spent 2 days on Chevy 7500 brake switch wire diagnose to blinker switch not working in between. Electrical nightmares with all the fun times!!! Also never heard u say needs fuel tank and pump with everything else needs after starter working. Lol
Love it, I believe it is a 52 to 53. 51/2 I believe was the turn handle. My old GMC hand the turn handle. What I was told .
Thanks for the info
thank you for the show.
Our pleasure!
Nice video Mr M. Love the needling between you and DD speedshop. It cracks me up

t shirt weather
Looks like a fun project. Kind of hope it doesn't sell. Would like to see it up and running. Think of poor DUFF
Damn you got patience for that one I hate messing with some one else's wiring nightmare ugh been there too many times I think I would have gone to the other wiring when the pins were wrong just because I'm lazy and not patient enough for all that you the man tracking through all that
A amazing pickup truck and looks amazing old and rusty it's a beautiful old pick up truck .
Just me, but I think you should buy a PRO-JECT ,from Dede, a build the absolute perfect build, wit some puddin touches, an present it to us as the perfect Mortske build. Bahahahaha. But for real. Thanks for all your videos man. An knowledge you share ! Saves me time and money Bruhda!!
my pleasure!
Thanks 👍 for sharing, very interesting 🤔 content. Sure enjoy your time with us😅.
Very Cool Mortske. I really like this one. My dad had a 53 Chevy 5 window.
Enjoyed your video Mortske.
Great looking truck
Glad you figured out that nightmare
Can’t wait for the next episode
Love the DD speed shop digs 😅
Wow I would have never thought of that. Cool video
This is awesome Mortske, Thanks for showing us.
My pleasure!
DYE that dash Mr. Mortske. You can get vinal Dye at any Automotive paint store. Take a piece of the dash you are trying to match and the will take care of the mix. It usually dries Darker, not much but some. so dont freak if this happens. See Ya. Like the content real well. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the info
Any Time Sir. @@MortskeRepair
Mortske Mondays ❤
You know your stuff
thank you!
impressed with this vid lets a lot of people see what its like to undo someone elses hack work
Learning experience!
I do think I would have ensured the ECM/PCM was well grounded before aiming the parts cannon in various and assorted directions, since the completion of the ground circuit is the signal to pulse the injectors.
Thanks for another good one Mr. Mortske! Quite an undertaking you've got on your hands there!
Many thanks!
