  • While I was out galavanting around the countryside I found this 1967 C10 for sale on the side of the highway. A deal was struck on what was supposed to be a running and driving pickup. Lets dig into it and see how good or bad of a deal this one really was along with making some repairs and improvements along the way! If you'd like to own this pickup it can be yours for $8,500 American dollars! As always, thanks for watching!

    I really like how "patina" is a thing. I've always focused on cheap purchase, make it run, drive, stop and steer. Probably spend more time on the interior than exterior. Body and paint is time consuming and expensive, worth it, maybe. If you're driving it, you see the hood more than the rest...... paint the hood, if you have to, and call it done. 👍

    I'm not one for lowering vehicles more than an inch or so (nor lifting them at all) but I know that's your thing, and it's your truck, so do what you like. I'd keep it long bed if it was mine. It's handy and it seems like only the short beds are being saved so long beds are getting kind of rare.

    1:10 I'm only a minute in and I'm hooked this thing is sweet. Just yesterday maybe the day before I filmed a C10 that I think is about a 69 but I need to slow the video down and see if I can guess. I'm always wrong though. The interesting thing about being wrong on the Internet is CZcams likes that because it considers it engagement. The Mort's Key Minute should be enough for me to figure it out

      Hood slims down towards the front, the 69s and up look less rounded, more or less classic SqBody. Of course have side marker lights. Tough to tell 69 from 70. 71s and 72s generally had fancier chrome and wheels

Now in the city on the east coast had thought 64-67 step side short bed, auto, V8 might just work. I am looking forward to this 2 hours of Mortsyizing! Thanks. Good stuff, Again. Wheels. Steeles and dog dish best possible choice. We had off white biege wheels and matching hubs caps. Pretty boring but the oak rack was pretty. I see it as a great weekend driver. Friday night cruise in. Needs a radio just wash and wax that nice body and fix the holes in the floor. Rust treatment on the cab roof to stop it.
    Decent seat but try to get good cushioning. Old butts need foam. Your getting up there!!! D

    Man this makes me miss my 67' I bought from my late uncle when I was about 21 or so. Was light green (code 503), all original minus work like one does to "revive" a truck like brakes, tune-up etc. My uncle always claimed it was a 283 but we never confirmed it, some said otherwise. Had so many big plans and was going to be the vehicle I learned stick in. Had some very mild patina and some rust issues but overall a very solid truck. But life likes to throw curveballs and I decided money in my pocket was better than a truck I had to find a place for while finding a home myself when my grandad passed. Off she went for $2k.
    Found it years later parked up behind a shop by pure accident and chance. Lost it again for while and then saw it for sale online for $4k. Havent seen it since. Come 10yrs later I really wish I could find out where it went or if its being taken care of. Hopefully one day ill have another. Sorry about he short novel, just reminsicing. Keep up the good work, love the content!

    In 1988 in high-school my cousin bought his older brothers 67 Chev small window long box. It had a 283 that we rebuilt each day after school and each paycheck. He had it bored 40 over and put if I remember correctly 194 camel humps on it with a 4 barrel carb. We also located a posi for it. Put a velocity stack on it and took it to SIR....Seattle International Raceway. Got cool burnout pics and I think he ran a 12 second quarter mile....I would have to ask since it's been like 36 years ago. Sure was a fun project! He put a short bed stepside on it and painted it a midnight blue....and even before the paint cured fully....bang He was T boned. Back to primer gray forever! Looks meaner in primer anyway. Baby moons for wheels.

    @KiwiStag74 Před 2 měsíci +1

    Tell you what mate, I get it. Doesn't matter if it isn't a totally perfect vehicle - it just matters that you can drive the damn thing. Even better if it's safely! I have been on both sides of the coin and I must say I prefer to run what I have now with old paint, patches where it's worn through and battle scars in full view than the pristine and perfect examples I've also had in the past.
    As you know, I daily my classics and they have picked up additional scarring from people in car parks who appear to not notice the cars beside them when they open their doors at Mach 1. I also take them on gravel roads because sometimes my destination is at the other end of it. It's great to be able to drive along in a classic and not be worried about the paintwork much - so much so that any bodywork I have had to do gets dusted in rather than a whole panel repaint. People do prefer to see cars that have lived a life I think....well as least as much as they like seeing ones that are show ponies or trailer queens. Not me any more - I like to see the car's life. My Stag has several dents on it from being hit by falling objects in the garage it was parked in during the two major earthquakes (7.1 and 6.5) that hit the city it was living in at the time. It makes the quakes real for those who weren't there when the evidence is plain to see.
    By the way - something must be lost in the translation between Kiwi English and American English, because I am certain that what you used on the bolts for the flywheel on the engine were lock washers. Your name for them was "star" washers, whereas down here, a lock washer can be a thick single curl with a split in it (aka spring washer), your "star" washer (external toothed lock washer), shakeproof (internal toothed lock washer) and a few others....and they all get lumped in together and called the same thing. I'm not a big fan of the spring washer, but the internal and external toothed washers (commonly found on brake line joints on British cars among other things) are the ones I like. Crank those down to FT and things tend to stay put.
    Anyway, enough about that. Pity the stainless trim on the C10 is so damn expensive because it really makes the driver's side pop. Ol' DB really did well on the slots too - and I still reckon you can't beat 'em on an old rig - car or truck. The "new" engine sounds good too - and yeah, nothing wrong with three on the tree. Get some black duct tape and run it from front to back on the driver's side of that vinyl seat - that'll so to tidy that up for now. If it were my wee truck, I'd be patching the floor, rockers and cab corners just to stop errant breezes on wintery days. As for the roof, yep, probably that too and I might push the dent out a bit if I could get at it, but then I'd be just making the interior a nice place to be....and hit the interior roof, door pockets, cab back, floor and firewall with some sound deadener, then chucking some underlay and carpet in. Nothing fancy - just go to the local carpet shop and find a suitable sized off-cut of a colour that works and some underlay to help with keeping it all quiet. Edging? If there are no trim pieces in the truck to use, just use a bit of stainless carpet edging. Looks good if done well and a lot cheaper than a fitted carpet. Shorten the bed? Easy to see you been hanging out with Puddin' for a wee while, mate! Nah - that long bed looks ace with the amount of lowering you've done to her. Can't think she'd look better still if it were shorter....and as you say, a long bed can fit more stuff in it. I don't know what the dimensions of the original timber for that bed is supposed to be, but surely you can get it cheaper at a hardware store / lumber yard.....and if you bought rough-sawn timber and an electric plane to dress them yourself, it would be cheaper again.....and you be able to get treated timber too, so it wouldn't rot. That's my thoughts anyway.
    I enjoyed your collaborations with Puddin' and there's nothing like a break from your regular shenanigans to recharge the batteries, is there? All the best matey!

    If you want to stop mosquitoes from biting you. Put nutritional yeast flakes in your food. It makes you release an odor that humans can't smell. But covers the smell of the lactic acid that you naturally release. Which is what mosquitoes are attracted to. I literally haven't had a bite in 25+ years.👍

Got it at 99000 miles and drove it to 316 thousand miles, I did change the timing set. Drove it for 7 years and sold it to a buddy of mine that owned a body shop, he used it for many many years to haul scrap to the junkyard. 67 to 72 is my favorite Chevy pickup 👍 this turned out to be an interesting episode, too drunk motors but you got lucky with the third and she looks and sounds great.

    The front frame shock mount locations were notorious for failing. Around here a classic solution was to weld very stout large washers in place to reinforce that frame. Never saw one that didn't deform or pull out if truck was getting heavy duty use. All mine did that.
