Heck yeah brother what a great old truck, this will be awesome in some parades with kids throwing candy and letting some old timers watch this truck drive by. Great work brother you rock
Thanks man. It's pretty cool seeing the reactions from the older generations!
@@smokengearsgarage it is big time when I was towing our 62 impala it was wild seeing people follow the car thy are such a incredible time capsule, so many memories with these Classics. Feels surreal to bring them back to life.
Looking good. Been awhile since that old girl has been run through the gears. I think Calvin Eden hauled grain with it in 06. Nice to see it back on the road.
Nice truck , my c10 have the same engine gm 261

I just bought the gmc version of this truck, seems almost the same but only one small mirror

Where's your jack stand? NEVER trust a hydraulic jack!!!!
Do you know where that truck came out of. The metal that raps around mine has that same design as my 55. Was just wondering if it was just a common bed material or a specific bed builder. Also where did you get your wheel cylinders?
My truck came from Iowa. Actually, I bought it one town over from where it was sold new. I believe the bed is an Omaha Standard. I purchased the wheel cylinders and master cylinder from chevsofthe40s.com. Great folks over there.
I've been working on a 1948 Loadmaster 1 1/2 ton truck and I could find everything for the rear brakes except the rear main seals. Where were you able to find those?
I believe I was able to get a number off of the ones I removed, and the parts store was able to cross them over to a new part number. That store is no longer in business. I could try and look back in my files and try to find a part number.
@@smokengearsgarage If you could that would be great but if you can't no worries
That’s a nice old truck! You’ll master the art of shifting it slower and listening to the engine for RPMs after driving it a while.And be sure when downshifting to double clutch it and speed the engine up before you go to the lower gear to get the rotating masses at the same RPM so you don’t pluck the teeth off of the gears !
