    The square body gm trucks have always been my favorite, especially the 73-79 square nose! Now with a LS set up and a 5 spds that is ideal.
    And this 74 c10 is in pristine condition.
    Perfect build!
    Im very happy youre doing this ❤

    Looking good and fits great . I don't like to complain but for some reason you music , which I did like , was a lot louder than the vocal . So I was constantly turning the volume up and down .First time that's happen on here . I did switch over to head phones part way though and that helped because I could just keep my thumb on the volume control .

    5:17 A little tip.
    If you loosen the screw and lift the boom up by hand and then tighten the screw again, you don't need to pump as many times. 😉

    • @jimcollins3411
      @jimcollins3411 Рік тому

That what do at my work ones For old and new transmissions and labels on wall so grab say need Automatic Turbo 700SR 4speed Overdrive , Turbo 350 or 400 3 speed Automatic, 200 Power Glide , plus labels say for GM , Ford, Dodge and many others makes plus models ! Hope that help out for future try to sometimes and save time!

    I thought Canada was miles instead of kilometers. Miles here in UK and kilometers in Europe, but if you forget while in Europe and think they are years ahead or stupid when you see the speed limit is 50 in built up areas, like I did in spain and france, I didnt remember it was kilometers and thought, 50 mph was good for built up areas. lol. I saw the speed limits and done them in mph instead of kph. Even on motorways. Thinking they were ahead of time at 100 on a motorway, instead of 70mph back home. lol
    Luckily enough, I was never caught for speeding.
