    Man, I still am amazed how much I like the green engine block! Seriously cool! Truck is looking great, but seeing you struggle with rebuilding the window tracks makes me shiver a bit as I have that little job in my near future! I'm still iffy on C-10 Natl's....Will let you know....Fun vid, esp bloopers! All A+++++

    The maximum overdrive soundtrack is awesome, mostly acdc. My son and I are attempting a full cab roof swap do to leaky gutters on our 69 C10. I just bought a donor 6.0/4L80 for a LS swap but want the rust fixed first

    • @ItsTheChad71
      @ItsTheChad71  2 місяці тому

      It was one of my favorite soundtracks! That roof repair seems challenging! I have never tackled one. Good luck to you guys! Before you know it, you'll be dropping the LS right in. Thanks for watching!

    Maximum Overdrive soundtrack is awesome.
    My wife and I was talking about that movie the other day with this automatic robot stuff just like the movie 🎥. Yeah, us generation X people have watched way too many Stephen King movies to deal with that crap💩. Lol. I even hate the self checkout things at Walmart!! 😡 Late 80’s they said computers were going to take peoples jobs, Everyone laughed, well here ya go! A robot is a computer that a person programmed. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    • @ItsTheChad71
      @ItsTheChad71  2 місяці тому +1

      Isn't that the truth. We had to figure out how to use the kiosks at McDonalds the other day because they didn't have enough employees to work the counter. 45 days later we got happy meals with onions, because I didn't scroll down far enough to uncheck the box.
      I don't remember another movie that had an entire band soundtrack in a movie. I've been listening to it the last week. So good!

    Diodes are the check valves of electricity, and not just Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs). They only flow current in one direction and prevent it in another. They are used to protect circuits from feedback. That’s also why LEDs only work with polarity in a certain way.

    • @ItsTheChad71
      @ItsTheChad71  2 місяці тому

      Where were you when we were screwing it up? lol. Thanks for sharing that info. I like the check valve reference! Makes sense to me.

    I wish I could make it this year. I won't be done this summer.
    Hopefully next year. Building a 70 CST with an LT4/10L90E with a speartech harness and putting a RS Chassis under it.

    Chad looks great , my question for the truck neard is can i swap a 68/72 P/S box in my 67 I would like to eliminate the hydraulic power cylinder that my truck came with,(it leaks and I can’t seem to find any replacement parts ) and just go with the conventional power steering???? I realize I would use the Center, Link and Pitman arm from the 68 to complete the job. It’s where the box mounts to the frame that I was concerned with maybe for no reason.????

    • @ItsTheChad71
      @ItsTheChad71  2 місяці тому +1

      Thank you! No problem switching over to a 68-72 steering box. You will need to either indent the frame or use spacers since the 67 did have the frame indent provision. Shimming it is probably the better way to go, so you don't mess up the frame.

    Hi Chad looking good. I’ve got a 67 is there a template for the side mirrors, put one piece windows in and want to place the side mirrors ahead a tad ?

    • @ItsTheChad71
      @ItsTheChad71  2 місяці тому +1

      We used the side mirror gaskets for screw alignment. As for exact factory location on the door, check out 67-72chevytrucks.com. There is a bunch of great info on there.

    Stay away from the 1-piece windows.
    They only like all the way up or all the way down.
    No support anywhere in the middle.

    Ess -cutch- unn.
    Ess -cutch- eon.
    Escutcheon.
    Who named it?
    They aint from here.
    But if your name was Louis Chevrolet, where were your people from ?
    Karl Benz invented his engine, Daimler did a bunch with the car design.
    They had to name the car after a guys daughter, because he provided the building they built them in.
    I wont mention Henry except he built his first engine in his kitchen and lived on Fairlane drive.
    Sorry.
    Its a chevy channel, i know.
