Finally got a running 65 C10
I adjusted the column shifter the other day, and topped the trans off with gear oil and that helped as well. As far as keeping it old school, maybe. I’ve had plenty of squares with small blocks that did good. I’ve also had plenty of new trucks with Ls platforms. If this truck already had...- 1low4x4

Finally got a running 65 C10
Finally! I could afford a running driving 60s pick up. I sold my 2022 Honda CB 1000 R to get this. Went from doing 160 miles an hour on the freeway to 55 lol. My first truck was a 64 GMC suburban, I’ve been chasing that feeling ever since. I’ve had several, none of them running, all project...- 1low4x4

Need an EFI recommendation
I don’t know much about these older systems, and since they are so old, I really don’t care to learn or play with other options. It’s pretty much either a standalone EFI or LS swap it. Unfortunately, this is a Frankentruck, with parts having being robbed off of like two other vehicles and put on...- 1low4x4

Why would they have gotten more expensive overtime? That’s not how technology works. FI tech had them for well Under $1000 a decade ago seems like. Edit: unless Biden Harris- 1low4x4

Here’s a thread to my build https://www.gmsquarebody.com/threads/helping-a-brother-out.39934/ Truck is a 350/4l60e. Dad took a GM efi system out of a Chevy van and installed it on the truck so it already has electric fuel pump. It has never run quite right because of the cam size and the fact...- 1low4x4

1Lows 64 C10 “service truck”
This is what I want the truck to look like but the red/pink it is now. I’m going to try to repair all rust and spot spray back with a close color, doesn’t have to be perfect, but I like the overall look of the truck. And I won’t have to worry about messing it up. Sort of state of the art chassis...- 1low4x4

1Lows 64 C10 “service truck”
work been slow so I built me a gantry crane to lift big stuff like the cab and bed on this truck. Best part is I didn’t have to buy a thing. Used wheels off one of my work scaffolds lol. 12’ tall may have been a little overkill but hey. Need to go to the pawn shop and find a chain fall.- 1low4x4

1Lows 64 C10 “service truck”
So I bought this 1964 Chevy stepside in Arkansas about five hours away a couple of months ago for $1200. I think I may find another cab, it’s going to take a lot of work on the bottom half to get this one right. The front clip is not in great shape, but I think the doors and especially the hood...- 1low4x4

LMC EFI gas tank install
I’m having hell finding the male fittings with barbed ends, or any other end on it to fit into these female holes. I’ve been to three parts houses, and four hardware stores, found out it’s metric not standard. I’m going to email MC . This is ridiculous that they don’t give you fittings for these...- 1low4x4

LMC EFI gas tank install
Hey guys, was wondering if anyone had used this tank before. This is an 84 short bed C 10 that was converted from carburetor to TBI and overdrive over a decade ago. Everything was taken from a 94 Chevy van. The gas tank that was in it has developed holes. I ordered a new one, but I got the EFI...- 1low4x4
