Being a part time audio installer, stinger is a good brand to use. The fuse holder next to the battery would work fine. I’ve used those fuse holders in higher watt system. I do want to say that the sub and the amp are not really putting out the power it claims.
I just got the exact same kick panels, I was curious how people are mounting them, the passenger side fits like garbage on mine too lol. Good video, thanks.
@@CLASSICSAREBETTER I used sheet metal screws to mount mine. I made the hole in the plastic panel slightly bigger for minor adjustments. Looks better if you use black screws or paint the head of the screw black. Thanks for watching
Great video and very helpful. I just got my kick panels for my 66. Do you remember what type (self tap?), size, were the screws and washers you used to hold those kick panels in place?
My grandfather had a 64 c10 three on the tree longbed stepside.very cool pickup. Cool videos you have on your channel.I love the 70 chevy,how did you get that rumble out of that thumper cam?great videos keep up the good vids.
@@Chickeneyegarage I own a 70 k10 myself but I don't have that bang,pop echo sound like you had on your 70.I'm not even sure what my compression ratio is.e street heads,standard 30 over pistons and rings, aluminum intake manifold,600 cfm elderbrock carb.thumper cam.
@@dangarcia9476 depends on the cc of the combustion chamber. If the engine block has never been resurfaced along with rebuilder pistons it probably around 9.5:1 compression ratio. I had my block zero decked to where the only set 5ths in the hole at tdc. Bumped the compression to around 10.6:1
Very nice job. I don't know about the foot switch. Wow. The speakers kinda stick out bit much . How did that work out for you. I Donno about that. N great Videos. 👍
@@Chickeneyegarage those don't have tuners to go to specific frequencies sadly. Thanks for the reply. I did purchase this then after had the drive in thought.
For the speaker panels I used black Philips head screws probably around one inch long. Mounting the subwoofer, Bluetooth amp are the same type of screws just shorter. All the hardware I used I already had in my garage.
Charlie- did you hook the powered sub to the boss amp? I am buying the same set up for my C10 and want to run a sub. From what I’ve read, I haven’t seen anything that says you can run a powered sub from it but I’d love to. Thx!
You have made a lot of creative choices to get around problems. Great stuff.
Keep the videos coming. Sounds great. I put carpet in mine after putting sound barrier to cover it all up. Great job.
Thanks. I might put black carpet if I can’t find a full size floor mat.
@@Chickeneyegarage Yes I would definitely recommend Carpet. It covers all the way to behind the gas tank.

Thanks for the reply. I ended up changing the fuse holder to a different style and hid it under the battery box. Looks cleaner than before
Great job and very helpful. Future upgrade for my 61!

Great video! I also have a 66c10.
Thanks. I think 66 is my favorite year of all the 60-66 c10s

I don’t know what size they are but if guessed it’s a size 6. It’s hardware I already had in my garage
@@Chickeneyegarage no worries and love the channel. Thank you Sir.

Thanks. I’m glad you like the videos. I guess the magnaflow mufflers gave it a good sound. I miss driving that truck

I Donno about that.

Charlie whats the pull knob for on drivers side by seat?
There’s a bell on the other side of the floor. Push on the knob and it’s sounds off the bell. It was on there when I bought the truck
I Wonder if you could make a 1/4" steel rod to cross up and over the components and make the seat slide work? Nice work btw.
It’s possible. I kept the old rod so I may try to come up with something in the future.
Need to see how you mounted your seat belts
My truck came with the factory nuts welded to the cab for the shoulder strap part of the belt. It made it real easy to install.
Summers coming on. Is it AC time?
Man I wish it was. I hoping to do that next year for sure.
now how do you add fm radio to it so you can go to the drive in ?
Probably a fm radio app
@@Chickeneyegarage those don't have tuners to go to specific frequencies sadly. Thanks for the reply. I did purchase this then after had the drive in thought.
What size screws ?
How’s the sound system holding up after a couple of years?
Still works great.
I need that for my 64.
@@TheTexxxan works pretty good for what it is
Does the driver's side speaker block the dimmer switch?
I can get my foot in there but it’s harder to access than before.
Gas tank has got to go bro .more room for subs .
Someday I’ll put a gas tank in the back of the frame but right now it’s not on the priority list.
What kind and size screws did you use
For the speaker panels I used black Philips head screws probably around one inch long. Mounting the subwoofer, Bluetooth amp are the same type of screws just shorter. All the hardware I used I already had in my garage.

RCA output and the remote power wire connects from the boss amp to the sub.
I would of went with Retrosound..😊
How'd you lift the seat?
What do you mean? I had my wife help me remove the seat if that’s what you’re asking.
@@Chickeneyegarage I was referring to the clearance. I do believe mine has tht much.
@@ianhenson4936 it’s sitting on the factory seat brackets.
How has the sub held up?
Works great! No issues so far.
Does the sub rattle the cab door badly,? And sound terrible?
Installing mine today
I wanna hear it bro
