- In this video we modify the rad, make a custom shifter using the stock S10 cable, build a battery box, and fire the LS for the first time in it's new home.
What make this the best show is you explain the work and don’t stand back and talk about it for 30 minutes you get the work done .Best channel keep it up
Another great video! I look forward to each one, and enjoy your work and the dialogue explaining it.
You really have a handle on making this stuff happen... It helps get an idea what to do on my own projects... Thanks again for sharing your talents and abilities
Thanks for watching!
It looks so funny to see a 110 outlet on the firewall. When I was 16 my friend bought a partially completed Kit car from a woman whose son unfortunatley died in 'Nam and she wanted it gone. We were kids and knew zilch about wiring. He wired a good portion of the car with extension cord wires. It was ugly but it worked.
You are making one nice truck. Motor sounds great. Thanks for sharing 😎
You are the best. I watch your video and see how you improvise every parts to fit. That's being a craftsman period
Iam building a 51chev p/u so Iam getting a TON of ideas from you! Thanks for sharing!
The Jimmy is coming right along. Really enjoy watching your fixes and adaptations. Makes my day to see progress on a conversion project. You make it look easy, and I know it's not. Thanks ! 👍
A lot of fab work but it's going to be a fun truck. Thanks for answering my question about the plug box on the firewall. Well I'll wait to see what you do to it next. 🤔
I like how you fabricate and make things work. I've been building cars for many years but I still get fresh ideas from watching your videos. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Brent always enjoy you working in your shop ✌.
Next time you are in , or around Kelowna bc, hit me up. I need at least to buy you some beers for all the free education you are giving me! Love it, keep them coming
Ive got 51 chevy that ive been wanting to put a newer engine and trans in but could never find good videos that answered my questions, till now. Thank you very much, keep making them and i will keep watching them.
Really impressed how it’s going together and the LS sounds great 👍
You do good work I like the way you operate to get things done later. Kozbilt
way back, I had a '49 GMC 3/4 ton. replaced the original engine with a 235 I rebuilt. previous owner had moved the battery under the hood, leaving the trap door and battery box on the passenger side floor for beer storage. have fun.
The first one. It was probably originally for a block heater. The block heater plugs into the outlet under the hood the outlet coming out of the grill plugs into the wall at the house.
Just love your videos! Always look forward to seeing the next one! You make it look so easy! Great fabrication and ingenuity!
I LIKE That dog. What great, loyal, partner he is
Just gotta say what a superb channel this is, straight forward , awesome fabrication , cool as hell projects , and great narration :)
Was amazed at how easy you made the shifter for the transmison work. made it look so easy. I would have never figured it out without your help. no more hard to reach floor shifter for me. Great teacher, great video.
I really enjoy your work you never let a project stop , that old GMC is the same age as i nice to see you getting it back to life enjoy your videos great work west Virginia is watching you.
Coming along real nice Brent, nice work.
Right on Brent !! Great progress 👍
Love The Janky Start-up System 😉😉😉😉LOL, thanks for Sharing Your Adventures I'm Getting a LOT of Ideas For 1/24th-1/25th Scale Models. Have a Blessed Week Brother.
Great to watch you move through this conversion. The owner is a lucky to have you doing the hard stuff.
haha I think the floors are gonna be harder than some of the stuff I'm doing haha
New to your chanel ,so far super ,thanks for the videos,
It started right up. Great job!
you sir,are the most talented person i have seen.you should be an engineer for gm or ford.believe me they could use your help.i'll bet you are the GO TO guy there.
welding and fabrication is a wonderful set of skills.
Hi from Australia luv the show and I think for us to do this in Oz it would be about 3 to 5k in a engineer to pass this our modified car laws are crap over here awsome work👍
It is awesome that you get it done while explaining it. You make it look easy, just about golden Brent!
Thanks for taking the time to show us how you make these things work. I hope you get paid well for your abilities. 😁
Hey Brent. I just thought it was the first electric truck. You are really knocking things out. Nice work. Thanks for sharing.👍👍🍁
Felt good to hear it start, I don't know but every time when an engine is pulled out and rebuilt over hauled replaced or what ever the case maybe I get excited when they start. Great stuff keep in keeping on 👍🏽🏌️♂️
Great work Brent. Seems like you enjoy hard challenges. Truck is coming along well. 👉🇺🇸👍🤚👊
Cool idea for the shift linkage
You are a true artist man
This is so fantastic. Awesome dude. I only wish I could do this like you.
Another great video! I look forward to watching your work and explaining how your going to mount it.
Shes a runner i dig it Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The plug in on the firewall was for the old school electric heaters the had way back in the day and when they plugged in the block heater they plugged in the cab heater. Sleeper status!.👍
I'll bet that the 120 volt plug was for a block heater. When the truck was parked overnight and it was freezing cold he would plug it into a outlet and the other end is plugged into a block heater.
Looking good Brent! Really coming together. Probably would tear into the stuck shifter, sure would be nice to hat least have a locking Park. Keep up the good work! Catching up on your videos today...!
I like that plug too I'd keep it as well.
Well Brent this is where my expertise comes in. That electric box was Chevy's first attempt at a electric truck. That's where you plugged in the extension cord. But you could only go 100 ft. So there you are.hahaha. great video as usual
I could watch you and DD all day!!
I can't believe I've never seen this channel! Tuning in from Georgia.
Another awesome job keep up the great work take care and stay safe and stay blessed see you in the next one
That baby is going to be a sleeper... it will fly if your brave enough ;-)
I am so impressed, you really got it to work and started the engine. I truly enjoy this project. I would love to have this type project to haul my toy trains around and go cruising. Do you enjoy this type project. I see lots of work but it is totally up to your creative methods to solve all the issues. The rad, the shifter, the whole thing is just great!!!!! Stay well and could you ever release a budgetary idea what a project like would cost a guy? Just a Beautiful thing. Thank You for sharing your efforts much appreciated. Dennis in Virginia
I love the power outlet on the firewall. needs an inverter in the cab. 😁
Great job. It's coming along nicely 👍👍🇨🇱
Man can you get shit done , thanks for the knowledge again.
cool build, i have a 53 chevy. neat to see the differences between the two
OK I gave thought to the wall socket on the firewall.
The person that owned it before was going to make the truck electric.
One end was to the motor and the other to the very long, I mean long, extension cord.
I are smart !
Wicked Top cat, loving it :)
Nice truck. I just found your channel.
Damn near ready to rip. Plablo's ready to ride.
Hey Brent , another fun to watch and learn video. Lori agrees keep the electrical box on the firewall . A few Saturdays ago on youtube there was a photo of your recently aquired 1949 to 1951 Dodge / Plymouth 4 door sedan .Looked white in color . Once upon a time didn't you have one of them and it showed up at tons of outdoor car shows that summer. Wasn't it the autograph car that had a sharpie marker on it and anyone could autograph it. I recall the next time I heard about it was Hot Rodded .Hope I have not embarassed you my friend. It was a bunch of years ago , think the owner had a cowboy hat . Maybe thinking of someone else !
yeah, that's pretty much where this all started :)
That plug is a block heater maybe, love your videos
Bubba has found the perfect place to sit. Very nice.....
Simple setup on the cable. Ill be keeping that in mind. You ever count up how many rugs you after Building? Lol. I say the numbers are up there. Lol
haha not sure how many rugs I've made
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya 🙏
Love crazy oddball stuff. Paint a little yellow lighting bolt. Next to it on the firewall. When people ask. What's it for.? Tell em. I use it to plug in my 45 record player. See if they get it.
I came in a little late on the 50 GMC . Love to see how it drives and handles .
Heck yeah I'm glad you left it cause I thought it was cool as well
fired right up nice.
Awesome man . Thank you for share.. 🙏🙏👍🔥🔥
I'm glad you left the plug cause I thought it was cool also
Hey Halfassed check out the 1950 Chevy truck on Hagerty I think you will like it the guys name is Devin a great mechanic. I wish you a great day bud.
Way cool. BTW I laughed at the bashing you got on DD's live feed rom one of his viewers, ,like it's will change the way any of us do things. iol
good luck with minimal problems
Maaan I like it,looking great so far.
LOOKING GOOD !!! THANKS !
Best youtube show
As far as the Outlet on the Firewall. It may have been for a Block Heater. (?) Your Battery. LOL ( CANADA PROOF ) I hope that it's not IDIOT PROOF. GREAT VIDEO.
Awesome cars you build !! How about a giveaway car?
it must have been grand dads pick up back in the day with that house plug wired in there ive seen that before but in a willys jeep i guess when grand dad was wanted to use his power saw or drill he was set ,,,,,ive seen block heaters but those always went inti a water jacket on the head ,,,nice truck ..like how it looks beat but has modern stuff tucked away nice one Brent .ps your dog at the end is she a german short hair ?
yeah pointer but there something else mixed in there also.
@@HalfassKustoms hey its kustom
AC receptacle was for an engine heater of some kind, maybe?
Bravo
I gotta do a ls in something soon.
should there pretty simple at this point haha
Brent, I can't remember if you have said anything about the missing gauges in the dash. Are these considered non-essential for this type of rat-rod daily driver? I really think that after you air-spray the truck with the Candy Apple Red Sparkle paint, it may need at least a speedo for the aesthetics... eh? 😏
yeah not sure what the fellow is gonna run in there.
It's extension Chevy plug in lol
Afternoon, I assume this is a customer's truck, I do understand what it takes to complete a project like this, if it was me doing this conversion, I would like to charge by the hour, my guess is 80-100 hours to do this conversion which would put you in the $6000-$7000 range...am I close? Just curious
Nah I'm pretty cheap but I'm not taking this one to then end fuel system and a few odds and ends and I think it'll be done for me, probably have half that for hours in this so far.
Said you didn't have the fuel tank in....Where'd the pressurized fuel come from to start?
I have the s10 tank just sitting in the box, think the plan is to get a fuel cell or mustang tank to go under the bed floor.
Ha ha A loom free video.
Keeping it simple, your a one man production plan as you take em as they come and turn it into something that someone else can follow and it just makes sense or at least it does to me. I sure like how the parts warehouse is just stuff saved from the last twenty so jobs, an thin them out when it has been picked through enough times that you know all the stuff in that pile and back say ten or more times. I just watched a hagerty build on seat covers and there was some ideas used that you might garner something out of it as all guys who make their own. I will put it in an if you have time then take a peak at it. I kinda like the method of the metal ring and those clips he used the way he done.

You probably already know all this but one never knows unless you ask/LOL. This truck is close to getting a stamp for done deal. Thanks again Brent.... that is class, the thermostat swivel mount
I might have missed it but was u able to free up the original shifter and use it or did you go another route cause the original shifter is just too cool not to use if u can but I might have missed the part of what you used as a shifter
yeah I used it I just wanted to make a park lock but that didn't pan out.
@@HalfassKustoms thanks man cool I thought you did but missed it tried watching it over but internet bad service wouldn't play it again lol but sweet man that old shifter is just cool 👍🏻
Has removing two leaves of spring lower the carrying capacity?
I don't think the truck will be doing much towing.
Having a hard time with the rear swap on a 53. What did you use? Need to stay with the 6 lug.
Was s10. you could try older toyota or nissan pickup if you need to keep it 6bolt.
HK, What is you $hop rate, or is it a top secrete ?
BRASIL!!!! |°o\O/o°|
guys would go with floor shifter . not you original column shiftier nice touch like it hope you paint it not liking all this fake rust going around
haha I won't be painting it, at least it's not fake rust on this one haha
3 lol
