    You earned a subscription from me. What you are doing seemed unrealistic and only possible on TV shows. You show regular home shops can do this. Now you have me looking and thinking about doing this.

      Yeah, I have a 2006 Cadillac Escalade in the backyard that we bought for my son and we're gonna do a square body. On the frame short bed stepside And when I was doing research I came across you're 67.​@Rustomod

    I love how cheap you're doing this build. Really motivating seeing as how cheap a rusted out GM truck is, combined with a cheap old C60 for just your labor. Could have something for just a few grand and a winter project running/driving by car show n cruise season. Looks really fun!

    Now that you have to modify the cab mount out front it is a good time to look at doing a tilt front end. I did that on my 1965 C50. It’s easy to support the rad from the cab I bolted the hood shut and the to cal pieces to the back of the hood. I relocated the battery to the frame rail under the passenger door behind the step My truck is a C.O.E so it make working under the hood easy

    I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel. I'm preparing to do a very similar swap with my 57, 4100 into my 1994 K3500 dually. I'm still contemplating going the same route you did or would it be better to cut the firewall and floor from both cabs and grafting the 57 cab onto the 94 floor and firewall so that all the steering, nv4500 linkage, brakes, etc. all stay factory? Also, new subscriber of course.
