- This unfortunately isn't our usual upbeat video. In todays picture, we will be tearing down the classic 1966 Chevy C10 truck. How bad is the rust? Can it be saved, or is this one too far gone, even for Kyle?

This will be heartbreaking to see the destruction of so much old growth rust.
"old growth rust" I liked that.
So you're the one who reported me to the Old Growth Rust Preservation Society (OGRPS)
Haha you had me going! I was thinking ’what? i’m sure he’s fixed worse!’ Looking forward to watching the progress on this one!
Haha! Thanks for following along!
Kyle, I’m looking forward to the series on this truck. Thanks for the Studebaker restoration tips over at CWM!
There is no doubt in my mind that you can fix this truck. Not a quick fix, but it will keep you busy, and off the street.
There are two people that can bring this back to life. The guy at CWM is busy with his French cars and then there is you. Looking forward to seeing you work your magic on this truck.
Glad to see the old girl near death BUT saved by Kyle and his magic, He is getting a truck back on the road that drives and handles like a modern truck that is still simple to keep going mechanically.
Easily the most ambitious project, I’ve ever seen on CZcams. Given your work in the past anyone who watches this series should walk away with a great idea of what goes into resurrecting something this far gone. I’m watching…I’m recommending…and one thumbs up is not enough.
I am am so glad Scott helped u out getting your utube channel going . 👍
It was very nice of him to give a shout out!
@@CarterAutoRestyling Maybe move closer to CWM territory? You and Scott are definitely cut from the same cloth...talented, humble and funny as Hell. Think about it, ok Kyle?
You had us for a minute there. It's got more holes than a chain link fence, but nothing that can't be restyled by Carter.
I am very happy you are going to save that truck and make it solid again. It deserves to be happy again...
One of the rougher projects I have seen to date. Can't wait to see you dig in to old yeller!
It's definitely an ambitious fixer upper! I want to get to the yellow truck too!
Washboard roads are a break-even deal. As the rust falls out, structural integrity weakens but there's less weight to support. Now, looking at it holistically (everything is connected to everything else), you would think it's a win (better gas mileage). But I've never been able to prove it because at that point I'm afraid to take it past 1st gear.
Any engineer worth their degree would agree with your hypothesis!
Gotta love the quick release bed floor option. Keep up the fantastic content as always.
Definitely a handy feature on these old trucks!
My zip blade grinder has the same style guard, lol.
That's gonna make some good videos.
Looking forward to them.
Safety first! Haha
Amazing how it's only the memory of what once was, along with sheer force of habit, keeping that punky sheetmetal in its general location.
Well done! I was saddened to learn of old Scummy being cut down, way past her prime. I'm glad you've decided to continue rebuilding the truck. Looking forward to your next video. Thanks.
You didn't fool me, can't wait to see the finished truck.
Your a Artist, What's Up, Dig it more than you Know, if it matters or not, I'm 63 and still learning and enjoying Life as it is...
The black and white video adds such an artistic flair. Thanks for sharing
We're all about the arts and crafts here at Carter Auto! Haha
Looking forward to seeing the results. These trucks were everywhere and dirt cheap when I was a kid.. I literally paid junk price for many running, driving examples back in the early 80's. It is always fascinating to see a farm truck put back in service! Thanks Kyle!
Yeah you could still buy these running and driving for a couple hundred bucks even 10-20 years ago. Not anymore unfortunately
That seat is a treasure. Not a single tear. We had a 62 shop truck, we sat on cardboard over the springs!
Haha yeah the seat has definitely been recovered
I look forward to where you lead us next! Thanks, Kyle.
Olde Style Narration Cards were a nice touch.
Haha thanks!
I knew something was fishy when you didn't pull the front and rear glass. Well at least you have plenty of content for us, I'll be watching.
I could say, “Sometimes I think Kyle’s crazy!”
Then I watch to the end of the video and conclude, “Yep, he is!”
All the same, I’ll be watching you work your magic! Damn!
Haha thanks for following along with the insanity!
I did not fall for it. The worse the cheaper. This is what your channel lives for. Have fun :)
Haha I won't have fun!
@@CarterAutoRestyling I would hate to see you miserable. Send it to me and get back to one of the other projects you will enjoy more 😂
Glad to see you still at it.
You had me scared ,glad to see you not giving up i know you can fix the 66 great job.
I hope I can fix it!
I was getting worried for a few minutes! There wasn't any music but you saved my day...so interesting....thanks
Looking forward to the progress. About 2 more videos and it' should be ready for SEMA.
Watch for it in the House of Kolor booth at Sema 2023!
Finally a video I can do. I had a tear in my eye or maybe it was Visine. It's going to be fun and educational to watch this series. Mary wants Allen's toy. Thank you for your time.
He says he will share the piece of heat shrink tubing, but the pyramid thing with the balls is not a toy. It's a scientific device for making mathematical calculations.
I understand. Just between us Mary is not very good at math. @@CarterAutoRestyling
You got going for second. I have no where near your skills, but I "saved" a 1966 3/4 ton Dodge pickup years ago by just welding in plates everywhere. I did have to get a replacement cab and the guy at the junk yard told me that the 'replacement cab' was "junk". I bought it anyway because it was better than the crap I had on the truck.. It was a pretty good truck with a slant six, posi diff and split rims. "Nice and safe". It got down the road and could haul wood.
Yeah this truck definitely could have been saved by using the plate welding method, I'd probably just do that if I was keeping it for myself. They've gotten to the point where they are worth enough to justify spending money on replacement panels though
Log ago, I had a '64 that was in almost mint condition. It needed an engine rebuild, but I drove it for a couple of years simply by running 40W oil and buying eight spark plugs at a time. It had a 292, and by the time I had changed #3 twice, it was time for the whole set again. But the body was solid, and the interior was in great shape. I miss that truck sometimes. I'm looking forward to the results as this series continues. All the best to you and the cats, and especially Old Scummy. .
I had the same year and model truck in high school. It was in about the same condition and had a six cylinder with three on the tree. I payed $50 for it in 1988. I put an old love seat in the back for extra passengers. Had a lot of fun with it.
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing
I fell for it. But, I stayed til the end. This is gonna be a great series of videos. Enjoyed your collaboration with Scott on the Studebaker.
Nice work again Kyle, it will be great to watch the old gal come back!
Shapeshifter keepin' it funny
Wow. Looks like a lot of fun is coming soon. Oh Yeah........R&R.
I guess that depends on your idea of fun haha
Nice careful disassembly actions. I really like the bed stays removal effort. This helps me in reconstructing the bed on the 54 five window. Thanks for sharing the videos. As always Meow meow.
You had me there Kyle, and I did not FWD, all natural road to discovery. Thank you and I had a blast when you went ahead and 'restructured' the Studebaker on a certain Albertan driveway 😊👍 Added a like to the collection and I'll be following along with this project. Cheers!
Thanks for following along! I'm glad you enjoyed the Studebaker restoration
When i saw how carefully you removed wood from bed i knew you was going to save it, but still watched to the end just incase .
Haha thanks for watching to the end Nick!
Wow that’s a lot of rust!!! And you were driving it around!!!
Haha yeah I was driving it daily the last couple months to knock off all the loose rust
Looking forward to this project for sure.
If you felt comfortable letting us know a ball park amount, for the replacement panels. To fix that cab that could be helpful in deciding whether to tackle a project in that shape. Besides the real cost is the skilled labor to install them and make it right. I really like the real world videos that most channels don't show, they throw money at a new bed side and a few minutes later it's on and aligned.
The cost of parts really depends on where you buy the parts from and what part of the world you are in. Lmc truck has exploded views in their catalog so you can get an idea of what parts are available for your truck, then it's just a matter of adding up the totals and calculating the shipping/exchange rate
You had me there for a minute, eh? I was nonplussed. After the Scooby-Doo van, I couldn't imagine a vehicle that you would consider too rusty to salvage.
Yeah it's getting tough to pull one over on you viewers, but don't worry, I'll keep trying! Thanks Philip!
We're in for a treat and a lot of learnin'
Kyle, Kyle, Kyle! I never doubted you for a second! I really like that light blue metallic. A HS friend had a 67 SS Impala that same color. The fella I bought my 64 F100 from had spent a year disassembling the truck. After watching you I'm now glad I didn't have to struggle with all the rusted tight clips nuts😢 now that my rust repair is done I can watch and learn how I should have done it! Thanks from Wisconsin.
Hi John! Taking things apart is the easy part, making it all fit back together is where the real challenge comes in!
I always enjoy what you do, thank you so much.
Wow. You have my attention . Excited to see you wave your magic wand with this one . Looking forward to the next stage. Keep up the great work.
Looking forward to an awesome project. Thank you.
Your orange cat has attitude. I like that!
Great work , great willpower , great determination
Something like that!
you know there's two kinds of patience , one is dealing with "what you know you don't want to" and the other is someone in a hospital that doesn't want to be there @@CarterAutoRestyling
Wow! You had me! Your truck is almost as bad as my 1953 IHC panel truck. I’m anxious to watch the repairs.
This project is going to be quite educational.
It will be a good example of what not to do haha
Taking a old rust bucket truck down a washboard road is a good way to knock off the bigger rust chunks!
This is a great project to watch.
I'm glad you think so!
Love all Chevy. Half tons. You do. Good. Work. Thanks
LOL, “Leg day”
I am loving this project! I will be starting on my 72 c20 soon. The truck I learned to drive with. I have learned so much about welding, grinding, and fabricating. Thank you.
Right on, good luck with your C20 project!
I loved the 20's cinema effects. That truck was surely rusted into just yard art. 😊
Very cool. love the silent film treatment! Nice to seeyou over at CWM too!!
Cool, I'll be here!!!!
+Good stuff coming ! !
Another great upload. Looking forward to seeing bring this back from the dead. Thoroughly enjoy your content (including the cameo kitty cat segments, and moreover, I do learn something from what you are presenting improving my own skill set. TY for sharing!
Thank you!
I've never seen one of the Cowls on those trucks rot out there.. It's always the bottoms are gone. Ironically those look ok....
Yeah I wasn't expecting to find rust there!
Looking forward to this series😊
Cant wait to watch you fix this gem. That yellow Chevy truck is pretty sweet too. Nice cameo appearance in CWM! Never knew you were an expert at outdoor bondo work. Great channel, man!
Haha thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the CWM bondo tutorial
Cool video can’t wait for the next one
Thanks!
You do awesome work,I salute you. 😊😊
The lower half of my gt6 was nearly as bad. It only has 3 factory panels left. Looking forward to this build.
Yikes, that is a lot of rust! Thanks for watching!
My friends 65 was just as bad but with patch panels a couple sheets of 18 gauge and a break and a spool or two of wire some new body mounts we fixed it just waiting on starting the bed work
Can't wait to see it done. This was a Great Video.
Ok... you got me twice in this video. lol I was calling BS until you did the tribute section then thought "crap, he's serious" Great video and appreciate the background music. Nice touch. Looking forward to watching this to completion.
Haha sorry for leading you on!
@@CarterAutoRestyling lol, yeah… I don’t think you’re really sorry… and I’m ok with that
Now things go from good to great, cheers!
I hope so!
That looks like a fine East Coast truck, Kyle!
I was thinking.. come on man.. you've fixed worse than that and you had said you were getting panels. Then the replacement panels came out.
Another one of those click bait guys at it again.
"Not doing a show quality job on this". SUuuuuure. We know you.
Love the cats. That reminds me. I better go check on mine. She LOVES to have a 3 hour nap in the car. Just do NOT start the car or try to move it.
Have a good weekend.
Hi Joe, I hope your cat had a good nap. Thanks so much for the donation last week! It really helps me to continue with my clickbaiting ways.
Kyle, as you well know... cats are pros at having naps. If we were only so lucky.
You are welcome but I wish I could do more. Where else can we get great content with such good life lessons?
Now that I hit the big 65 and will be getting the huge government money maybe I... oh right. Was dreaming there for a minute.
What a happy shop!
It really is!
Great video. Looking forward to the next.
You have a good eye for picking best tucks to work on 👍🏼take it easy mate 👍🏼🍻😎🇳🇿
Hahah thanks Gav. I do have a keen eye for picking diamonds out of the rough!
" All about saving something " .. that about sez it all !!
Some disassembly required .
Just a bit!
You had me going there. I knew from earlier videos that you had got some used parts for the truck but thought that perhaps you had decided that there was just too much to do. I should have known better. I look forward to seeing the fabrication and welding as they progress. Best wishes.
Haha sorry, thanks for watching to the end though!
You got me thinking you were going to scrap it. Good one!! I know it will come out great in the end. I will keep watching your videos!!
Pour one out for a fallen Chevy 😢 Damn.
You got me! Good luck. I’ll be watching.
Hi Kyle and Cat's I can't wait to see how this comes out. Much respect and as always I liked and shared. All my very best.
Thanks Bobby!
One of my old coworkers would have suggested that you jack up the license plate and drag another truck under it. But I think you're on the right path. Of course, I'm the sucker who has held onto a 40 year old truck despite the amount of effort involved. It's cheaper than truck payments.
Looking forward to this fix from the "Master fixer of all things rusty and poopy".
Haha I'm glad to hear that!
Looks about like my 62, just a touch worse. Have to see your door jambs and roof better, haha.
You really knocked that out watching at 125% speed, haha. Poor old truck needs some major love.
Thanks!
Thank you Scott!
You can hear the quality of the 60's steel when ur cutting it, we'll never see the like of it again.
Looking forward to the work on this old girl.
Your cats are a couple of characters. U had me fooled about the cut up, glad to see you where just foolen. Looking forward to the excitement of a rebuild
Ha! Skipping leg day..... Carrying an engine block up stairs has a considerable pucker factor. God bless.
Hi Paul, it's definitely not something I plan to do again! Haha
Looks good Kyle
Thanks Randy
Looking forward to the journey of repair videos on this truck.
Right on, I'm glad to hear that!
Looks like some good lessons to be learned coming up
👍🏆Nice editing. Nice work. 🏆👍
Been catching up on your content since the holiday, when you first got that truck on that bumby road, I thought it was going to be like the scene from the expanse where every component came apart and you're still holding the steering wheel.
Hell yeah, another cool truck project! Thank you lord.
Ha ha you had me going for a minute but then i realized you started the body work on the hood i knew you would see it thru and make the truck look good agsin
Well Kyle it looks like you have your work cut out for you. That should keep you busy for awhile. I really didn't think you were going to strip it a junk her, but you had me going for awhile.
Hi Ken, there's definitely a lot to do on this one!
