    My boat up here in Alaska (Exxon Valdez) needs a new anchor. How much $$$ do you want for your C10 anchor? I'm drifting, please hurry! ZZZZZzzzzzz

    I would probably radio to Captain Sig Hanson he should be able to locate you. :-) This sheet metal boat anchor is probably best staying with me.

    There supposed to be a large o-ring on the torus cover. In the video I saw you removed it but didn’t saw you put a new one.

    Wow, back 2 the Cadillac! PTL Yes misery loves company? I too hooked up a cheap oil pressure gauge with the plastic hose. It was mounted on the left wheel well. It worked fine for a couple of years then one hot summer day I went for a spin to the local mall, 2 miles away. After shopping I came out to find a sizable pool of liquid on the pavement under the left door hinge area. Thinking I couldn't be me, as the AC dripper is on the right side I flashed up my 6 liter 1981 Eldorado. Then hell broke loose, all the lifters were clanging/ticking like crazy. Dash had the oil pressure warning light glaring. So I high tailed it back home. I pulled into the driveway and found there was no oil. So I refilled the crankcase and hard plumbed a proper oil pressure gauge. It's happy now at 35 psi.

    It's amazing how fast that little line can release that much oil so fast! Glad to hear you Ole girl is still purring away. Let's hope we don't have any videos of low oil pressure issues 😬

    I'm glad I found your channel again. My grand daughter deleted you when she was playing with my phone. I've learned alot by watching you and your brother work on Dabby. I have a 61 except it doesn't have air. . I'm just getting ready to rebuild the engine which I've only did one and that was back in high school in 77 . So I'm a little scared but I'm like you I really want to take her out on the road. Thank you for the video and your time.

    If memory serves me correct, we used a blazer tank in the rear. It fit very well in an 8 foot 70 c10. Or it may have been a suburban tank. That was 20 years and a dozen vehicles ago though.

    That's a good project for you guys. I hope it generates a lot of views. G body cars are pretty popular right now. Just remember, wagon frames are different than the el Camino frames in those years. The el Camino has a 9 inch longer wheel base. Do they still do the quad city tug of war up there? Last one I was at was in 93 I think. Fun times!

    I hate when people slather the rtv on. A little bit goes a long way. No torque specs? Go a quarter turn past snapped off. Looks like it's time for a carb upgrade. And a driver side brake light. She looks cool going down the road. l knew you guys would get it.
