  • I had seen this 1962 Chevy crew cab from a distance but always heard it wasn't for sale. A subscriber got me in touch with the owner and I was able to strike up a deal to get it out of the pasture where it had been rotting into the ground for over 30 years. Although it is very rough it is a factory upfitter crew cab conversion that was done shortly after it was assembled by GM and then likely sold to the United States Air Force after being completed. Since there was no drivetrain and the suspension was very rough I decided to convert it to squarebody GM 1/2 suspension for several reasons. As much as I wanted to take this pickup further, it has been SOLD to a new home! As always, thanks much for watching!

    Another good show there Mortske and Duffinator! I think the moral to this video would have to be think twice, measure twice and don't get your holes mixed up LOL. No offense Greta. I can't decide if that truck would be better with old Betty blue or Greta green either way it's a cool project. If I were doing it though I would have probably put it up on about 6 in lift kit with 44-in gumbo mudders and a fire breathing big block under the hood. One last note. I think the Duffmeister deserves a treat sponsor. I would do it myself but I'm so broke I can't pay attention LOL. I don't know if you're going to name that one Mortske but the Motley Crew Cab would be what I would name it. Can't wait to see the showdown between you and Puddin! I'm sure we're all going to laugh our butts off ! Damn it's hard to keep what you say PG-13 isn't it Mortske? 👍🐻🇺🇸🇨🇱

    I feel Sorry for anyone who would have to rebuild a truck so far gone as this one. I recently rebuilt a 1957 chev 1 ton , and after replacing the cab ect... 3 donor trucks, parts from four old doors,I finally was ready to start body work . It took me and a friend 1 and a half years to complete. It Has a grafted on frame welded on right behind the shock mounts from a 1974 chev 3/4 ton , rotors from a 1988 1 ton PU, and a 1978 differential . Also, I think all 302 Blocks had DZ stamped on the engine pad. Great Video guys!, reminds me of days gone by.

    Watched this one again with my dad. We’re working on his 66 C10. I think this is something we can tackle. He’s got all the body work done and some panels painted. He’s doing all the painting his self. The body fortunately is almost flawless. We’re having the original 250 rebuilt but I’m gonna put in a modern transmission. Trying to find a 200 4r. That would be ideal.
