Nice job! Righteous work. I just had my 1989 Chevy C1500 Silverado (which I bought new) restored and should get another 33 years out of it. (Hope I make it that long, I'm 73) Next, I'll be juicing up the stock 5.7 engine with a cam and probably the Edelbrock ProFlo 4 system. Good Luck with yours.
That’s awesome!! Haha I’m sure you will. Nice I’m pulling the engine this year and putting a GM crate in with headers and some performance parts! Thanks you too!
Its nice to see people taking the time to fix up these older trucks. You did a great job
Thank you.
I have a 98. Going with the exact same color combo as it's always been my favorite. Nice to get a preview how it will look. Keep the truck forever. It'll last that long
Oh yeah I’m going an engine rebuild and a frame swap!
very nice ! red paint really made it pop .. I have an 1989 chevy Silverado, 2500..
Now you OWN a very useful truck. Modern trucks aint worth the money. Good job.
Great work kid good luck with your truck and channel
Nice work young man. You will never regret this truck.. some of the best years of chevy. I have a 98 2500 4x4 almost mint just beautiful trucks
Thanks Elvis, that’s so cool!
I have done a few of these trucks. They are a pleasure to work on and the most expensive part on the whole truck is the AC control on the dash. Currently freshening up a 454 to drop in a 1998 3500.
Wow that’s crazy. Sweet!
nice choice on the two tone red and white, looks sharp
Love the truck bud, reminds me of my old 1985 GMC K1500 Sierra Classic that I fixed up with my father in law, painted it the same red and white two tone that you did! Now I got a 98 Chev K2500 Cheyenne that I'm hoping to get repainted soon as well!
Woah that’s so cool! Yeah any video you want to see on it let me know!
Keep up the good work young man.
Great job Dad, you have a fine son.
How I wish more young men were like this.
How I remember removing the spark plugs on my Dads 79 400ci Cordoba to help do a tune up at 9 years old. And he tells me "make sure to replce them one at a time" but since I was smarter and faster I ripped them all out at the same time... HAAAAAA instant 4th of July. Oh what a valuble lesson I learned. Lol
Thank you Cesar. Haha, that’s funny
Nice work! Beautiful rig, that's one you're going to want to hold on to for a long time, trust me. I own three standard cab OBS Chevy pickups, one of which was my first car (almost ten years ago now) and is about to go in for a frame off restoration to original condition. Thankfully the rust up here is nonexistent, so it should be all cosmetic unless I come across some electrical or mechanical issues I haven't found yet.
I’ll talk your word on that. Thank you! Wow that’s awesome. Rust is the worst!!
@@AlmostItalianBrothers it really is, I worked for a mining company in coastal Alaska where we had a bunch of OBS and squarebodies, the rust was absolutely brutal on some of them.
Looks great! Needs cab mounts 😅
That truck came out sick 🤮...🔥🔥🔥
Nice job. More young men need to work on vehicles it’s very satisfying knowing it was done right
Thanks!
Gorgeous, excellent work!
You did a great job on your truck it looks 100% better then it did when you got it I hope you are happy because I would buy it in a heart beat I love it.great job and love the new color.
Wow, thank you so much Jason!
Great project!
Awesome work 👏....looks absolutely 💯 amazing
Thank you Peter!
Man this was ha huge rebuild. Great job!!
Just wait until this Winter... the thing is going to scream. It also needs a lift kit. I did a 3” body lift because it was so low but didn’t do a lot.
Paint scheme nice look,,very clean
Thank you
All the hard work is worth it. Good job guys
Thanks! Yeah it pays off. I was in a rush making if because I was trying to free space up on my phone so I missed so much but I’ll make another video on that someday. I like your car videos. El Camino is awesome
I wish i had my before i have a beautiful 93 chevy silverado same block but we did the engine ir used to be my moms old truck i freaking love this truck out in the snow today 4x4 i had leather diamond on the inside to match the oitside she is my baby i will send some pics i love your truck as well

Sweet!
Awesome work! I've been working on my 89 stepside lately.
Thank you. Nice!

Nice truck dude. Good work man. This body style is probably my favourite Gm put out.
Thanks!
nice build :)
Got me motivated to restore mine!! Thanks a a lot for the vid!!
Go for it!! No problem
@@AlmostItalianBrothers I got the 1990 k 1500 short bed. Just got my engine rebuild kit in last week
Nice work!
Beautiful truck!
Thanks man
Best video l ever seen! Nice truck!
Really cool man. I had several of these trucks when I was in high school in the early 2000s and miss having one so I’m about to be in the market for an 88-98 k1500. Can’t wait to get another
Great job bud looks great
Thanks Dan!
Hey man I’m 14 restoring an obs as well. Frikin amazing job man. Glad too see it
Thanks Manlo! That’s awesome, wish you luck on your build!
@@AlmostItalianBrothers thanks so much!
I would recommend color matching the mirrors red. Truck is clean tho
Good idea
Great vid and great truck! Nice editing on the vid too man. Keep it up
Thanks Skyler!
love the color
Good lookin truck
Thank you
Yo seriously good job man ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽 serious props. On your next build can you go more over on the motor breakdown.?? I appreciate your hard work man
Thanks man! Definitely I’m actually pulling the motor sometime this year so there will be a video on that
Good job my dad has the 92 of this truck. Same color.
Nice!
Looks awesome! I'm 16, hoping to buy my own project truck at some point, hopefully a 88-94 OBS, as we have a beaten 88' that's on the way out, starting to bend... Great job!
Nice! Thanks
what does “bend” mean on these trucks i keep seeing people use that word?
Great job on the truck. More kids your age should be doing the same thing. Maybe there would be a lot less crime.The only problem is it can get to be a very expensive hobby.
Agreed. It is an expensive hobby!
Almost Italian. I don't know why I love that ??? Hahaha
PS I have 92 same engine. 350tbi. Ex cab 8ft long bed. It's a monster. C1500 Silverado. I need to do a lot of interior work but she runs and drives great.
Y'all come get mine and fix it up on a video. Lmao!!!!!! 😅
Sounds like a good deal.
If I end up selling it I’ll sell it to your for a special offer. Instead of $25k I’ll do $24,900. What do you think?!
Really cool video you should raise the front end up a little bit so it's level put a level kit on it it look much better but all in all a lot of work my friend Good damn job looks awesome what a neat video can't wait to see the next couple things you do to it
Thanks Elliott! Definitely raising the front
That frame, cross members and drive shaft are so pitted from rust. I wouldn’t have wasted a dime on it
Havent seen a heavy half in a while
Good job I just bought a 93 Cheyenne 2500 for a 1000
Nice!
I bought a second OBS for only 800 dollars just to restore it like yall did
nice job, i rebuilding a 2500HD from 1988 , but here in belgium parts are expensive, the truck in lot worst condition as yours cost me 3500 euro's , many hours of welding and grinding went into it, now i'm starting the suspension , hope it will be as nice as yours !!
Nice, good luck!
looks like sheridan rd in Illinois
Awesome Ride, Just got a '93. Can I have the specs on the wheels, tires and Lift. I'd love to replicate something similar to mine. Nice Job!
Looks killer man. Why didnt yall follow the wheel well body lines around each wheel? It does look slightly off with that
What kind of paint did you use? If it’s that rubber undercoating be very careful because rocks will chip it and it’ll start to peel and water will get under it and sit and completely rot out the frame without you even realizing it’s an issue. Happened to my ranger and the body still looks great but the frame is thrashed. Look into Fluid Film. Some places apply it but you can just buy it at home depot. It’s the best stuff I’ve found to keep off the rust. You do need to apply it more often but it’ll save your frame and your pocket in the long run. It looks like your in snow country so salt is even worse with that rubber undercoating. It’s fun living in the rust belt haha. Hope this helps.
I used Chassis Saver and Rust-Oleum, both dry really hard, no rubber. Haha yeah, I actually moved to VT in August so it’s even worse up here!! I’m pulling the motor sometime this year and I’m really thinking about doing a frame swap due to the frames condition. Depends how much time I have! Thanks for the comment.
Holy sh*t! 👍🏻
Haha thanks
Thats one bad rig right there! I just bought a 93 single cab chevy k1500 5.7L very similar to what u got id love to do this to mine someday! May i ask about how much money you put into it after all said n done? Love the paint job! And the wheels
I have a old truck and wanting to get it done like this
Better two tone color match the plow and slip it back on
Lol! Good idea
what inch lift kit was put on this with what wheels and tires. I personally dont typically like single cabs but this one i like and is well done
I put a 3” body lift in because I couldn’t get a suspension lift kit. The rims are 20x10 Hostile rims and the tire are 33x11.5
i see a massachussetts inspection sticker
Yes sir that’s the state we used to live in.
I got a 90 1500 long bed with 83,000 original miles.
That frame (3:49) is down to about 60%!
Beautiful looking truck! What color red is that?
Thank you! The paint is “Rally Red” and the brand is restoration shop
This is like me and my 98 2dr tahoe
Awesome!
Great job! Never sell.
Nice truck! what size wheel and tire is that? Did you have to buy interior parts such as dash components and if so where did you get them? I picked up a 95 K1500 in remarkable shape. Nothing wrong with paint interior except a crack in the middle if the dash and small section of defog vent broken. Not a big deal but like t replace it if I can find one.
Thanks! The rims are 20x10 Hostiles and the tires are 33x11.5
Nice! Yes LMC Truck has almost everything you need for your truck.
@@AlmostItalianBrothers Thanks!
@@chris61670 If you have anymore questions I would be happy to answer them.
@@AlmostItalianBrothers Much appreciated!
My project truck is an 88 Chevy K1500. I'm thinking about starting a channel as I work on it. What kind of camera/equipment are you using?
Nice! iPhone and 5 gallon buckets 😂
@@AlmostItalianBrothers Glad to hear that. I'm not trying to invest a lot in equipment so I'm glad to hear you could make a video that good with your phone. Sweet wheels brother! Good job! Keep on truckin' 👍
@@benwrenchin Thanks. Whistlin’Diesel still films with iPhones! There cameras are great. Also this video was terrible lol my new videos are the best. I’m pulling the motor this summer and I’ll make a video on that!
Those replaced the square body regular cabs in 1988 & then the square body crew cabs & SUVs in 1992.
Good to know, thanks for the info!
@@AlmostItalianBrothers also 1988 was the first year for the optional extended cabs which only had the 8ft long box at the time. Then in 1989, the shorter fleetside box became available on the extended cabs. In either 1991 or 1992, the stepside box became available on the extended cabs. 1990 was the first year for the long horizontal headlamps in the deluxe grille which replaced the dual glass ones on the 1988 & 1989 year models.
What are the spec and brand of the wheel and tire combo?
Rim- 20x10
Tire- 33x11.5
I got them from Custom Offsets they were not a pre made combo
Did you say neo gun for the frame
Needle gun. I think that’s what it’s called
1,000,000 subscribers doubt full maybe 1000
And now he wants to sell it.
I made this video when I was 4
What kind and how much lift?
It’s a 3” body lift from performance accessories
@@AlmostItalianBrothers any more vids?
Just the FlowMaster muffler test, we moved so we are working on our new shop so we can replace the engine and “finish” the truck! There will be a video on that but probably next year. We have another channel called Vermonters too
Mal trabajo de carrocería quedo toda descuadrada 😢😮
Since you only paid 1300 I'll give you 1800 if you want.
Lol. Not for sale sorry
Awesome work and truck is sweet you should check out united by trucks channel
Front to low
Bed lines no match
Now they do
Wasn't talking shit it's nice truck it was just off a little
The body and bed don’t line up at all? Looks like almost an inch off . What’s up with that
I’m swapping the frame this spring so that will fix it. The front in this video is 1” lower then the back! Didn’t realize how bent the frame was
That frame is so rotted and pitted it doesn’t even look safe. You probably compromised the hell out of the integrity of it. You can see how deeply and horribly it’s pitted even after the paint. Should’ve started with a different frame all together.
I’m doing a frame swap
@@AlmostItalianBrothers can’t wait to see it man. Truck is clean and has come along way!
