I worked at a Chevy dealership in 1969. The Coast Guard bought a C 10 short bed step side, 250 straight 6 with 3 on the tree. Same color as this holly truck but with a white roof and no options. I had the pleasure of delivering it to the Coast Guard station about 12 miles away. That truck rode and handled well. Steering was light and precise (no power). To me that truck was the epitome of automotive development. Simple, driver in control (as opposed to computer) and everything worked like the well oiled and engineered machine that it was.
I had a '68 Chevy C-10 pickup with that 0l' Stink'in 307 cu. in. V-8 engine in it. I Loved the truck but, hated the engine. Very P00r gas milage! This truck brought back a lot of memories. Please, Keep these GREAT SHOWS coming for All Of US Older People from back in them day's, Jay.
😂😂 he was pissed.. I would be too...but at least Jay can pay for it.. His face would be a whole lot worse if it was his high school buddy tgat still lives in mom's basement lolol
My old man had a 68 C10 Black with white c/w red interior , long box . Floor shift 4 speed (factory) with 1st gear was bull low ....remember now ? Yes, the engine was a 307 cu inch 2 barrel carb . Not sure why GM came up with that motor in the 60's The truck was cool and had a cap on the back . This one has a very nice look and the front end view with the chrome bumper. Another cool episode.When Jay mentions the way we used to roll up the windows and pretend we had AC , is so right ....great comments and I get a good laugh out his show and enjoy the love he has for the automobile. Very CoolCheers Alberta Dave
69 gmc 1500 I learned to drive when I was 10 it was 3 speed on the wheel. My dad would be having a beer and teaching me to drive. Those days are long gone. I’ll never forget him or the truck. Some day I hope to get one.
You're right about keeping certain (If not all ) factory styling components. Nothing ruins the experience more than those cheap ass steering wheels. That original steering wheel,dash & interior really enhances. Suspension,and stance are spot on as well. Love that color as well,although with the lighting ,and all it has the appearance of added clear coat w/ pearl. This gives me further motivation for my '63 C10.
And I prefer the '69 but that's probably because I used to have one. To be completely honest I actually prefer GMC's of this era. Can't beat the quad headlights.
This 67 Chevy C10 has to be one my most favorite Chevy Trucks plain jane simple small rear window and I love the fact they kept the stock fuel filler cap despite relocation of fuel tank.. but over I love the clean look simplicity compared to other trucks out there .. I love it thanks Jay Leno for featuring this truck
This is the gentleman that my father and I dealt with back in the day we were looking for parts for the Holley variable venturi 2800 CFM carburetors that they used on the Packard V-12 for WWII PT boats
Leno, I'm too young to have experienced you on late night. But this show you've got is the best car show on RUclips. 👍 Thanks for sharing your passion in such a pure form.
My uncle who taught me carpentry had this exact same truck right down to the color, course it had a 250 six and three on the tree but one day I dropped a 283 in it and we were in heaven. Road and drove many a mile in that pick up, oh and it never had a radio either. Thanks for sharing Mr. Leno..
A DODGE DEALER I WORKED FOR USED TO BY AT THE STATE AUCTIONS HERE IN PA. HE BROUGHT BACK ONE OF THESE TO RESELL THAT I BOUGHT IN THE 70S A PA. FOREST RANGER TRUCK IT WAS A STEP SIDE WITH A THREE SPEED SIX ,THAT SAME BABY GREEN COLOR !....////
Everything Jay comments on about folks using smaller steerings wheels and dub wheels etc, I completely agree with. There is an esthetic that the vibtage vehicle loses when those particular modern parts are used. Well done again Jay & crew.
This might be my favorite vintage restomod you have shown. The exhaust note is sublime. Best combination of old and new school in a car I’ve ever seen.
+TAOFLEDERMAUS I used to work at a place that had a 73 3/4 ton that I drove a lot back in the late 80's. It had a 327 with a Holly 4 barrel. Lots of fun.
Jay Leno you're pretty cool man... Thanks for running a great channel and sharing with us when you probably really don't have to. Loving the Chevy too (obviously)
I had a 68 Chevy C10 from 1985 to 1987. I did a lot of work on the interior when I fixed it up. The one thing they should do is take the tack off a column and you can cut in recess a sun super tac 2 into the original dash. It looks amazing and very clean. No clamps. Other than that absolutely amazing truck. Keep putting out these awesome shows J
Before I even start watching. This is (IMO) the best looking truck model (except for GMC model for the cool double headlights) ever made. I wish a truck maker would make a modern version of this, similar to how they are making cars like the muscle designs are being reused.
I love everything about this truck, it's absolutely beautiful. The only thing I would change is not lowering it so much or at all. The front end looks so good with the white.
Nice! We had a new 1971 C10 when I was a boy back on the farm. We piled the abuse on that truck and it just kept coming back for more. Beautiful job on the restoration!
Thanks for the inspiration. I recently bought a 69 C20 and couldn't decide on a color. Now I know. This body style truck has been my favorite ever since I was a kid. Now I own one...
Very cool truck. A friend of mine had a 69 Chevy longbox truck back in high school. It was dark blue and white with slotted mag wheels and exhaust stacks. We had lots of fun cruising in it.
I like that truck, too! It's the right year, color , nicely done. I like the white grill, but I would have to have a chrome one as well, because I'm rich, with money pouring out of my pockets, sorry, I was dreaming Great show Jay
Great truck, nice modern mechanicals, but no shoulder belts really drive home that they wanted the vintage vibe inside and out. And Jay's burnout was more of a dust-out, kinda weak. Good thing the CEO corrected that gaffe.
Loved this one Jay.. I specialize in the 60-66 GMC/C10 trucks and I was impressed at how the 67 looked so period correct. .. Really enjoy your Web casts. .
Love this Truck. Finally Jay started to review trucks. Very clean build with ultra-neat in detail. Next truck should be 1st Generation Ford Lightning...Thank-You Jay for bringing in trucks to you show.....
So cool seeing that sign on the door. I have two sets of official Holly part drawers with that logo, in mint shape from my grandfather's garage which he ran from the late 1920's to 1975. I use them in my office.
Used to own67 Chevy 3/4 ton,had a camper on it before I bought it, used to burn out easy, but alas the bank took it back, ,great show Jay, glad your enjoying yourself !! The best to you ,wife,crew!
fender guitars used the same color's of GM cars on their guitars during the 50's-60's using nitrocellulose formulas before acrylic was adopted by GM .. That color is referred to as surf green . Nitro is still used to this day on guitars and is preferred over acrylic for higher end guitars. Nitro finish wears out far faster and can be made in production to appear as an old guitar called a "relic" .
Boy, that is such a beautiful truck and so nicely restored keeping it as original as possible....I remember when my uncle got his 72 stepside with a 307 and 3 speed on the column, that was a great truck also....He still has it!
Jay Leno would know. CA has the worst roads? Try MI or IL in the spring, after 200 freeze thaw cycles and plowing each winter. Cool truck anyhow. If it was mine, I just wouldn't let Leno drive it...
Beautiful paint, and the interior looks immaculate. I guess that I've driven in so many pickups from that era, and the interiors were always at least somewhat dirty.
50s and 60s 'Murican cars were a golden era. Now the entire world drives the same drab rubbish, like Priuses, Toyota SUVs, Infinitis, Lexus etc etc. Zero style and flair, unimaginative design, endless pointless options and safety gubbins, and inoffensive colour schemes. Bring back ginormous fins, chrome, sexy pastel colours off of the 50s, and gigantic V8s in cars that were styled to look like space ships.
NegativeNumbers427 For shame :( In the 50s and 60s, especially in the States, people demanded a bit more class, style, pizzazz. America had an ego the size of the moon, and that was a good thing when it came to car design.
Beautifully done, This is what car guys like, sure the new stuff is nice, but something you've skinned your knuckles on is even better. Thank Holley for a very nice truck, and thanks Jay for putting it online.
I love what you do, Jay. I'm an old school car guy like yourself, except for the talent and money and shows and okay, just old. Keep doing what you do.
That is a perfectly awesome truck! The stance is perfect, and it has more than enough power. Originality in the look and a proper 6 speed. Love those wheels. I'd look really good in that...
I think jay has only got one pair of jeans and denim shirt he spends all is money on cars and parafinalia( don't know how to spell that word) that's why he has the same clothes on lol ;-}
I had a 67 Chev pickup truck with a 396 that was a lot like that and can tell you, the fit and finish on this truck is amazing, much better than when new. I get quite a kick out of the way they kept the plain steel door panels, painted grille, rubber mats, radio delete etc. when they must have spent at least $30,000 on body and paint work. Notice that under the hood and the interior are as perfectly finished as the outside of the body. There is a huge amount of hand work to that level of detail.
When Jay had a job and some money in his pocket, he used to test McLaren's and Bugatti's. Since he's lost his job and is living on welfare, all he gets are motorbikes and crappy old rust buckets. It breaks my heart to see a guy like Jay hitting the skids. :-(((
MarchuxProductions I can see your point of view, but, with these cars, I can't agree. Now, if we were talking 50/60's Jags or Porsches, that an entirely different matter. ;-)))
MrKeyboardCommando The simplicity ('Murican cars from that period were made with a hammer and an axe, lol) combined with their power and the looks/sound is just as amazing as any European sports cars of the time. Even with an old 454 or 427 big block of the time, a C10 back in the day could've taken on any 911, at least in the straight line, plus it sounds better. This, plus I find 50s/60s Eoro cars pretty generic and ugly. Especially the rear end of the E-type. It looks like a fucking bath tub.
Have you ever watched another episode? Such as the one where he drove HIS P1? All those cars you see are his, aside from the C10. His 'job' wasn't his only, or greatest, source of income. Skids indeed.
He doesn't care what he looks like, and nether should you. He has a nice big fat bank account do to his education and experience. Can you say the same?
Robert Brumley Yes, I can its easy. He doesn't care what he looks like, and nether should you. He has a nice big fat bank account do to his education and experience.- How do you know he doesn't care what he looks like? Did you ask him?
YES!!! About time u guys featured a classic truck on this show especially c10s. I have a 1974 c10 2wd with an LS 5.3 and 4l60e auto and I absolutely love it. A million times better than the tired old 350 that was in there when I got it. I would like to get one of the 67-72 models one day
im not saying they suck or anything. or that the truck sucks. i like the truck. but there are other options other than corvette engines. and im not sayin those engines are bad, i know there good
like I said, there really isn't nothing else. U go with a) old school and build something from the bare block up with maybe a Muncie or turbo 400 b) u go with ls and a tremec. Now I love old school but the newer stuff is easier to live with.
like i said there are other engines other than corvette engines. you could go with a 454 which is not a corvette engine, or a 427 though they did put them in corvette's it doesnt necesarily mean its a corvette engine. or a small block 350 camaro engine. i can go all day dude
jason wise And u didn't read what I wrote, the 454 350 etc are covered in old school blocks. When u look at chevy blocks there is no Camaro/vette engines since they shared the same blocks since the beginning with the differences being the heads and cam. The ls series of engines do the same thing to this day.
the vent windows that are now a thing of the past for some reason, worked as well as an AC..they really got to bring those back in trucks and vans...running that AC is a mpg killer!
Born and raised in Cali, now in Florida, always recognize Jays car treks through the 210 Freeway and foothill Blvd Route 66”
Beautiful Truck.

That truck is so nicely done. The perfect combination of modern tech and originality.
67 is my favorite too, the little back window.
Just needs a tilt steering column...
My dad has this truck and he had it now for 30 years. It is a great truck
Remove the decals and it's perfect
Hey!! Jay Leno!!! really a spot on!!!! A guy guy talking about car dirty because of a fuel line.... Man welcome to my world!!!!
The last of the really good looking trucks. No crew cab 4x4 silliness.Thanks for the great video.
I had a '68 Chevy C-10 pickup with that 0l' Stink'in 307 cu. in. V-8 engine in it. I Loved the truck but, hated the engine. Very P00r gas milage! This truck brought back a lot of memories. Please, Keep these GREAT SHOWS coming for All Of US Older People from back in them day's, Jay.
That guy's face after Jay blasted the quarter panels with gravel.
😂😂 he was pissed.. I would be too...but at least Jay can pay for it.. His face would be a whole lot worse if it was his high school buddy tgat still lives in mom's basement lolol
Yeah,what a IDOIT!!
Honestly Jay beats up all the cars that come on the show its kindof rough to watch with all due respect lol

I love that truck. I wouldn’t change a thing. Perfectly done.
69 gmc 1500 I learned to drive when I was 10 it was 3 speed on the wheel. My dad would be having a beer and teaching me to drive. Those days are long gone. I’ll never forget him or the truck. Some day I hope to get one.
The first sentence Jay spoke is the reason I like him!! He's real down to earth person and not your typical celebrity.
C10's have always been a timeless lookin' truck. I learned how to drive on one, we used to clean out the interior with a hose. gotta love em!
You're right about keeping certain (If not all ) factory styling components. Nothing ruins the experience more than those cheap ass steering wheels. That original steering wheel,dash & interior really enhances. Suspension,and stance are spot on as well. Love that color as well,although with the lighting ,and all it has the appearance of added clear coat w/ pearl. This gives me further motivation for my '63 C10.
Makes me smile. My grandfather had this truck with a V-6 as I recall. It was certainly that color. Nicely done.
I like all Jay's videos before I even watch them because I know I won't be disappointed.
I will now, and forever more, guage Jay's satisfaction/enthusiasm for a particular vehicle by the number of "Nicely dones!" per video.
'67 C10 Chevrolet will NEVER go out of style. Lovin' the channel, what an inspiration for me!
And I prefer the '69 but that's probably because I used to have one. To be completely honest I actually prefer GMC's of this era. Can't beat the quad headlights.
There is something about the look of older cars that I like. I really don't care too much for all the streamlining that they have today.
This 67 Chevy C10 has to be one my most favorite Chevy Trucks plain jane simple small rear window and I love the fact they kept the stock fuel filler cap despite relocation of fuel tank.. but over I love the clean look simplicity compared to other trucks out there .. I love it thanks Jay Leno for featuring this truck
Tom is a pretty cool CEO and he really knows his stuff. Great video Jay, I really like what they've done with this truck.
i know this is a late comment to this video, but i love how you did an episode on an old truck like this c10. More please!
This is the gentleman that my father and I dealt with back in the day we were looking for parts for the Holley variable venturi 2800 CFM carburetors that they used on the Packard V-12 for WWII PT boats

Love Jay's videos. His enthusiasm for different types of cars/bikes is fun to watch.
My first truck was a stock gold-colored 69, C10 step-side with a 250 ci straight 6 and three on the tree. I don't miss it too much.
A v 8 could solve that
+Jimbo Cee anyday
thanks!
+TAOFLEDERMAUS I used to work at a place that had a 73 3/4 ton that I drove a lot back in the late 80's. It had a 327 with a Holly 4 barrel. Lots of fun.
People didn't think to much of these trucks back in the day, they were just a work truck. Now look at them everybody wants them.
The perfect way to do a resto-mod. Love the engine bay and the look of a 4 bbl.
Thanks Tom and Jay. :)
Great pick-up truck, much nicer than the modern jumbo sized stuff !!!
This may not be real TV but I look forward to every new installment like a little kid .Thanks, Harry Schwarte
I rather have this Tv,

The love for Trucks is growing over here!! Do more on the Jay, and if possible, investige rat rods or maybe a fenderless Ford F100. Keep it strong!!

It looks like you could recess the tack they have. Forgive my errors in the earlier message , voice to text.
Before I even start watching. This is (IMO) the best looking truck model (except for GMC model for the cool double headlights) ever made. I wish a truck maker would make a modern version of this, similar to how they are making cars like the muscle designs are being reused.
stingray so you like the GMC double healight better?
OH GOD NO!! please dont wish for that. look at the stupid evolution to the modern takes on the camaro and mustang. You take that back sir!
I love everything about this truck, it's absolutely beautiful. The only thing I would change is not lowering it so much or at all. The front end looks so good with the white.
I own a 1972 c10 myself i would love to restore it one day with my dad
Nice! We had a new 1971 C10 when I was a boy back on the farm. We piled the abuse on that truck and it just kept coming back for more. Beautiful job on the restoration!
I agree with jays opinion on the tilt gm steering wheel Lose some weight , lose some weight.
Yeah, it'd be nice if there was a tilt wheel with a thinner column. It's the thickness of the column that ruins the look.
Thanks for the inspiration. I recently bought a 69 C20 and couldn't decide on a color. Now I know. This body style truck has been my favorite ever since I was a kid. Now I own one...
I still like my Carb, for budget race guys like myself they still get the job done.
Very cool truck. A friend of mine had a 69 Chevy longbox truck back in high school. It was dark blue and white with slotted mag wheels and exhaust stacks. We had lots of fun cruising in it.
I like that truck, too! It's the right year, color , nicely done. I like the white grill, but I would have to have a chrome one as well, because I'm rich, with money pouring out of my pockets, sorry, I was dreaming
Great show Jay
Man that’s gorgeous! And you’re right Jay. We need more trucks on the channel!
Great truck, nice modern mechanicals, but no shoulder belts really drive home that they wanted the vintage vibe inside and out. And Jay's burnout was more of a dust-out, kinda weak. Good thing the CEO corrected that gaffe.
Check out my burnouts. I show you how it's done. 6.0 and 6 speed C10
Then why did they lower it and put those huge wheels on it? Ruins the look.
Loved this one Jay..
I specialize in the 60-66 GMC/C10 trucks and I was impressed at how the 67 looked so period correct. ..
Really enjoy your Web casts. .
I wonder how many jean jackets and pairs of jeans jay has?
All of them
He's got a sweatshop in his basement that pumps out nothing but jean jackets and blue jeans.
crzzymnn911 He should make a website for that. "Welcome to another episode of Jay Leno's Basement Sweatshop..."

Love this Truck. Finally Jay started to review trucks. Very clean build with ultra-neat in detail. Next truck should be 1st Generation Ford Lightning...Thank-You Jay for bringing in trucks to you show.....
Jay Leno is fucking great!
So cool seeing that sign on the door. I have two sets of official Holly part drawers with that logo, in mint shape from my grandfather's garage which he ran from the late 1920's to 1975. I use them in my office.
I'm putting a Jaguar V-12 in my '69 Chevy truck.
Surely you can't be serious. A Mercedes V12 would have been cheaper to get and easier to maintain, but hey... to each his own.
You'd be better off and much more happy to put a 572 Chevy crate motor in it. A lot more muscle and keeping it all Chevy.

Hello: At 13:11 it looks like Tom is holding on for dear life, Jay has all the fun. That truck sounds just right.
Very sweet truck... I'm not feeling the wheels too much though.
I love your profile pic, that movie my friend is my favorite movie of all time.
@@naarvmaan I tried watching it a few months ago, I only made it 20-30 minuets.
That is a plain and simple clean mod. I really like that C10.
they do sell original looking tilt steering columns
No

I thought it looked familiar! Used to know a guy who had a Telecaster that color.
I had a 57 Strat that was Sherwood green used on 57 Mercurys. (Left in profile photo)
Boy, that is such a beautiful truck and so nicely restored keeping it as original as possible....I remember when my uncle got his 72 stepside with a 307 and 3 speed on the column, that was a great truck also....He still has it!

Man O Man, would this be a nice toy to have.
The sound from that last burn-out is epic.
I would love to see roadkill on this show.
Beautiful paint, and the interior looks immaculate. I guess that I've driven in so many pickups from that era, and the interiors were always at least somewhat dirty.
50s and 60s 'Murican cars were a golden era. Now the entire world drives the same drab rubbish, like Priuses, Toyota SUVs, Infinitis, Lexus etc etc. Zero style and flair, unimaginative design, endless pointless options and safety gubbins, and inoffensive colour schemes.
Bring back ginormous fins, chrome, sexy pastel colours off of the 50s, and gigantic V8s in cars that were styled to look like space ships.
Very little market for those cars that we want to see.
Majority of people only want a cheap car as an appliance and that's it.
NegativeNumbers427 For shame :(
In the 50s and 60s, especially in the States, people demanded a bit more class, style, pizzazz. America had an ego the size of the moon, and that was a good thing when it came to car design.
James C. Letts don't bad talk Toyota products. They make the best made vehicles that money can buy.
Krevin Grard
I can agree to that, but they also had their part in producing hybrid cars... A market that shouldn't really exist.
NegativeNumbers427 There is nothing wrong with hybrid cars. Hybrids that use the gas engine as a generator are the best hybrids.
Beautifully done, This is what car guys like, sure the new stuff is nice, but something you've skinned your knuckles on is even better. Thank Holley for a very nice truck, and thanks Jay for putting it online.
The valve cover/sock comment was good. I don't think the co-host got it.
the guest left his sense of humour in Kentucky .
I love what you do, Jay. I'm an old school car guy like yourself, except for the talent and money and shows and okay, just old. Keep doing what you do.
they never spoke about how it tunes itself.
That's because it'd make the episode 3 hours long, but you can Google "Feedback and control systems" to get a rough idea.
The ECU reads air/fuel ratios and adds or subtracts fuel real time.
It's not a true dyno tune, but a street car would run perfectly fine.
Use your imagination.
The same way most aftermarket ECU's do these days, and a signifigant amount of OEM ones do? It's not a new concept.
Skylar Garrett Yeah I know, open loop closed loop etc. But you all are just guessing. The CEO of Holley may actually know but he hardly said a word.
That is a perfectly awesome truck! The stance is perfect, and it has more than enough power. Originality in the look and a proper 6 speed. Love those wheels. I'd look really good in that...
I think jay has only got one pair of jeans and denim shirt he spends all is money on cars and parafinalia( don't know how to spell that word) that's why he has the same clothes on lol ;-}
nicely done, not too overstated in a nice pastel colour too very suttle.
Mechanical guys have no fashion sense to speak of..🤣🤣. They also do not notice fashion, except for machines..
I had a 67 Chev pickup truck with a 396 that was a lot like that and can tell you, the fit and finish on this truck is amazing, much better than when new. I get quite a kick out of the way they kept the plain steel door panels, painted grille, rubber mats, radio delete etc. when they must have spent at least $30,000 on body and paint work. Notice that under the hood and the interior are as perfectly finished as the outside of the body. There is a huge amount of hand work to that level of detail.
When Jay had a job and some money in his pocket, he used to test McLaren's and Bugatti's. Since he's lost his job and is living on welfare, all he gets are motorbikes and crappy old rust buckets. It breaks my heart to see a guy like Jay hitting the skids. :-(((
These cars are more fun and more cool/interesting than any new supercars.
MarchuxProductions I can see your point of view, but, with these cars, I can't agree. Now, if we were talking 50/60's Jags or Porsches, that an entirely different matter. ;-)))
MrKeyboardCommando The simplicity ('Murican cars from that period were made with a hammer and an axe, lol) combined with their power and the looks/sound is just as amazing as any European sports cars of the time. Even with an old 454 or 427 big block of the time, a C10 back in the day could've taken on any 911, at least in the straight line, plus it sounds better.
This, plus I find 50s/60s Eoro cars pretty generic and ugly. Especially the rear end of the E-type. It looks like a fucking bath tub.
Have you ever watched another episode? Such as the one where he drove HIS P1? All those cars you see are his, aside from the C10. His 'job' wasn't his only, or greatest, source of income. Skids indeed.
Several people fell into your sar casm.
I really love Jay's Garage.
The CEO has really bad posture. Look at that neck bend it looks like he's suffering from post bankruptcy depression.
Might be the result of back surgery. My grandpa had a slouch like that after his surgery too.
He doesn't care what he looks like, and nether should you. He has a nice big fat bank account do to his education and experience. Can you say the same?
Robert Brumley Yes, I can its easy. He doesn't care what he looks like, and nether should you. He has a nice big fat bank account do to his education and experience.- How do you know he doesn't care what he looks like? Did you ask him?
SuperDashRendar I've seen a lot of arguments in the comments section. But seriously? About the guy's posture?
Liberal idiots.
YES!!! About time u guys featured a classic truck on this show especially c10s. I have a 1974 c10 2wd with an LS 5.3 and 4l60e auto and I absolutely love it. A million times better than the tired old 350 that was in there when I got it. I would like to get one of the 67-72 models one day
im getting tired of seeing ls engines in every damn restomod, do something different
Theres nothing else. U go with a fresh old school style small/big block chevy or u go ls. Ls engines are also very good.
im not saying they suck or anything. or that the truck sucks. i like the truck. but there are other options other than corvette engines. and im not sayin those engines are bad, i know there good
like I said, there really isn't nothing else. U go with a) old school and build something from the bare block up with maybe a Muncie or turbo 400 b) u go with ls and a tremec. Now I love old school but the newer stuff is easier to live with.
like i said there are other engines other than corvette engines. you could go with a 454 which is not a corvette engine, or a 427 though they did put them in corvette's it doesnt necesarily mean its a corvette engine. or a small block 350 camaro engine. i can go all day dude
jason wise And u didn't read what I wrote, the 454 350 etc are covered in old school blocks. When u look at chevy blocks there is no Camaro/vette engines since they shared the same blocks since the beginning with the differences being the heads and cam. The ls series of engines do the same thing to this day.
Great truck. Don't know why but i gotta watch all the way to the just to hear that old car honk. Thanks jay for showing us your and others great rides
Love this show, so casual and professional
There's no other car guy like Jay. Love Your videos Jay!
Yes Jay, how about more trucks on this show. Sick this week, going back though some of the older videos I haven't seen...always love your videos!
Great show, its great to see jay get his hands dirty a true enthusiast
I am so glad you do this show! Thanks Jay!
Burnout? What a wonderful thing! May some things NEVER change!
So excited for the Holley LS Fest here in Bowling Green, KY next week, hopefully I get to see this truck in person.
I've seen this truck in person at Hot Rod Power Tour. It's really cool! Love the coil covers that simulate old big block valve covers.
Jay it is your Knowledge That needs sharp dressing and we trust the Mechanic look. Love this one
the vent windows that are now a thing of the past for some reason, worked as well as an AC..they really got to bring those back in trucks and vans...running that AC is a mpg killer!
Grew up with my dad's, now mine, 69 step. NEVER GONNA SELL!
loved it. I have a 1970 C10 shortbed that I've had for 35 years
1st vehicle I bought was a 67 longbed. Jumped it in a pond, pulled it out, take off the heads, and do it again and again.... I miss those days.
I have always loved the late 60's to early 70's Chevy C-10's. I have always wanted one and I still hope it happens.
Who could give that clean old truck a "thumbs down"? I too would have liked to have heard more about the Holly add-ons.
My pops had a 67 c10 small back window truck when I was a kid brings back a lot of great memories of him doing burnouts in front of our house
This is one of the few restomods I like, it keeps a lot of the OG styling. Definitely not a Foosemobile. Major thumbs up!!
"okay I was wrong , see" hay always puts a smile on my face I love this channel
the best show ever can't wait to watch more
One of the, best done trucks on the show ! Nicely done engine !
