In today's video, I'll be finishing up the majority of the fabrication work on our '62 GMC C1000 Restomod Build! Along with making more custom mounts for the side steps and bumpers, my friend Joe will be making custom frame horns so we can mount the front bumper as if it came from the factory. In the midst of all of this, I'll also be lowering the suspension by 4" in front and 6" in the rear. It's mainly to counteract the height difference created when using a square body frame with the earlier body, but it'll also give it a slightly better stance than a factory C10. At the end of the day, we still want it to look like a proper truck, but have a slight modern twist to it! As I've mentioned in prior videos, this is going to be a unique build that's going to utilize mostly factory GM parts when it comes to the chassis, powertrain and driveline. The goal is to build a truck that's easily serviceable, reliable, fun to drive and comfortable to drive on a daily basis. The core of this build will start by taking two old GM vehicles that were destined for the scrap yard and repurpose as much of them as possible to limit cost and give the '62 a significant dose of modernizing. If you haven't already, subscribe today to follow the progress! Thanks for watching!
