Yes,you do very good work, nice videos very helpful,it's kinded funny your a,framer plus do all this amazing work on these trucks,as for me i was a,plumbing Supt ,plus,I love my classic cars,68 canaros,70s,but watching your videos, I found a,1966 C-20 and now,restoring it ,thank you for the reply and keep up the,nicecvideos,& work
That is a real good looking truck. Looking real choice. I’m looking in to 79 Scottsdale. 350. 3 speed. But I’m a big guy. Was looking to see if I could shorten the steering column or what I could do. And came across this video. Glad I did. And I think this would help me a little. Might look in to it.
I just got my hands on a 62 stepside and I have to say your videos are the ticket to how its done right. Thanks for the inspiration and knowledge of how to direct this pass time we all share.
Crazy huh it didn't come with a collapsible shaft. I would think for safety purposes it is better. But not sure. I used a mid 80s jeep shaft. It fits perfectly on the power steering box and has two u joints and a collapsible shaft. I was impressed by how easy it went on. Just some grinding on the original column Safety bolt through the side of hole that is there for the knuckle. I also epoxy the thing to make sure that it stays on. Not at all trying to say anything bad about Gibson63. This man is a artist. Amazing truck and the best owner that truck can have. 👍
you are doing a very detailed installation, very,very good quality project, you tube is great for those of us who work in own garage, thanks for your time showing your skills, I'm doing a 67 el camino ,,,
You gotta stay steel for your truck. I thought about going with the stainless deal for my 72 Chevy pick up but I did go with black powder coat Instead. After putting the column in it looks so much better in the black. If you decide to change colors on your steering steel go with a block in powder coat. It is way better than paint and it will look great.It is a lot easier to match up steering wheels with what they have available for sale. The Grant 8540 is a good steering wheel to try for your Chevy. Just a thought my friend.
Hi Sir, Nice Job! If you do an extra hole in the middle of the "under dash plate" Against the Steering column. It is probably easier to Reach n adjust the locking screw. Just saying. Keep up the good work.
Tie the color of the column in with some accents on the dash and door panels (It kinda looks similar to the silver stripe) so use the brushed aluminum to your advantage and create a theme. Looks great ! I think your gonna bring the wheel towards you a little by the looks of it! Great update!
Nice work. You make it look easy. Just starting to embark on this very project and this was extremely helpful. Subscribing to your page, so keep em coming!
Hey Sir, are you able to use the stock steering wheel with that “new column?” I love that stainless steering wheel column, need it for my “63” as well, but I wish to retain my stock wheel, does this new column support use of “stock steering wheel, Sir?” Thanks for all these videos, it really does put me in an educated direction. You Rock the old steel!
Shouldn't you have checked to see where the steering wheel position was before you cut the shaft?What ididit part number steering column and kit did you use.I am doing the same truck.Your truck looks beautiful.Great job .
great video on the column. question what color did you paint the inside of the inner fender. been following for some time. i have a 65 Chevy so this all ties in nicely.
Hello,what and where did you buy your power steering pump & bracket ? Also I bought a,I did it columes,for my 66 c-20 but it don't have the bolt slots like yours ,does mean ot wrong please let me know
Pump and brackets came from (Classic Parts) My column is set up for an automatic no shifter at all on the column, shifter in floor that could be the difference
I'm a fan of your work here. If not going with the original steering wheel, what were you considering? Personally I think modern steering wheels on older trucks do not look "right". Subtle modifications such as the column or seat or radio updated will not detract from the vehicle, but putting a steering wheel from a different era may. Either way it's your truck and do as you please, our opinions shouldn't sway you. Keep up the good work! Love seeing the progress you are making.
Does anyone know the name of the bracket he used to hold the column up under the dash?!! Need to order one for my 1970 c/10 but idk the name of the braket!!
what length steering column did you use for your 63 Chevy truck ? I'm building the same 63 Chevy and just checking if the length you used was a good fit.

Hi Sir, Nice Job!
If you do an extra hole in the middle of the "under dash plate"
Against the Steering column.
It is probably easier to Reach n adjust the locking screw.
Just saying.
Keep up the good work.
Tie the color of the column in with some accents on the dash and door panels (It kinda looks similar to the silver stripe) so use the brushed aluminum to your advantage and create a theme. Looks great ! I think your gonna bring the wheel towards you a little by the looks of it! Great update!
You will have beautiful truck.
Cool video.
Thanks!
I'm at the point of hooking up the gearbox to the pump. Where did you find the PS hoses that you used? Gary
Paint work looks awesome. Looking to purchase an IDIDIT for my project.
Nice video, hey on your power steering pump what year pump & bracket did you use. Iam restoring a,66 c 20
I ordered this pump and bracket from Classic Parts, just told them the year 1963
Some reason the music and chill kept me watchin..
How did you connect the wiring . I seen your other video where u installed a new harness . Is it plug n play?
Nice work. You make it look easy. Just starting to embark on this very project and this was extremely helpful. Subscribing to your page, so keep em coming!
looks like a great restoration man im jealous
Id love one of these about installing/repairing a drivers side window regulator...
May be going with the ididit column too. Hoping youll get a new project soon..
Hey Sir,
are you able to use the stock steering wheel with that “new column?” I love that stainless steering wheel column, need it for my “63” as well, but I wish to retain my stock wheel, does this new column support use of “stock steering wheel, Sir?” Thanks for all these videos, it really does put me in an educated direction. You Rock the old steel!
Yes I used the stock original steering wheel with this column
@@Gibson63. Nice! Thanks as usual for all the informative videos, they help me and I’m absolutely sure many others Sir, Thank you!
"Where you goin?" To get my girlfriend. "Go!"
Shouldn't you have checked to see where the steering wheel position was before you cut the shaft?What ididit part number steering column and kit did you use.I am doing the same truck.Your truck looks beautiful.Great job .
Thank you for the video, it is very helpful. did you order this column by application of by length?
great video on the column. question what color did you paint the inside of the inner fender. been following for some time. i have a 65 Chevy so this all ties in nicely.
I painted the inter fenders red on both sides

I feel the same way about classic trucks/cars I will be going with an original wheel may have to modify it some
Awesome job, thanks for keeping this project going and for the videos!
That truck is going to be perfect...
Some of us have an old truck but then some of have a nice old truck! Looks incredible.
where did you order steering column, thanks.
Great video sir.. truck looking awesome
Hello I have another Question where you buy your steering colume coupling & u joint, plus the one on thecrag joint ,please let me know thank you
I ordered all these parts from (Classic Parts) Classic parts of America they had everything I needed
What’s the name of that part you bolted on under the steering column to the body?
Looks sweet. The stainless steel kinda goes with the two tone paint job on the body, don't you think?
I was thinking about going with some silver on my door panels so it might blend in
Awesome👍can you add the ididit column part number#
nice truck. total restoration
Does anyone know the name of the bracket he used to hold the column up under the dash?!! Need to order one for my 1970 c/10 but idk the name of the braket!!
Clean and safety work.!
Like I said good job cornbread
What did you use on that frame? Paint
Did you use the column they have listed for a 60-66 C10, or did you use a different model? You do great work, love your videos. Thanks!
Yes I used the column that was listed for this year truck
what length steering column did you use for your 63 Chevy truck ? I'm building the same 63 Chevy and just checking if the length you used was a good fit.
Don’t know the length of the column but I had to buy the shaft separate and cut it to fit
Nice job and looks great installed.
Looking good.
Was the column a direct fit? if so what's the part number if you remember?
Do a brushed aluminum look on the door panels, guage cluster, and glove box door to match the column
Hey that's what I had In mine from the jump
Really nice truck, you do the paint job? Building a 57 f100 myself!
Rich Richardson Yes I painted this truck myself
Gibson63 beautiful job I wish I was as good!
Question, what was the foam you used for the seal on the steering column?
Really nice job! Just looks like glass. I have a ways to go to get to your level!
Rich Richardson the foam came in a kit I got from classic parts it was a firewall kit grommets and seals
That column looks great
What did you do about the neutral switch?
truck is looking sweet!
What all information did they need about the truck when you ordered it
Just the year and make of the truck
If you have gotten rid of your steering wheel I’ll buy it from you??? Let me know how much?
Very nice, if you don't mind how much does those columns cost? CJ
This one was around $650 for both column and install kit, chrome and column shift are much higher
Do these columns lock without a key?
Great video, thanks!
