It’s time to perform a long list of overdue maintenance on my 1962 Chevrolet C10 affectionately known as White Lightnin. The frame is bent, cracked and rusted. The doors are out of alignment and the hinges are sticky. The headlights are out of adjustment and more! This pickup is not for sale. As always, thanks for watching!

You're definitely not a nerd but it's not an accurate description of you lol remind me more of an old school hot rodder
On the head light adjustment. As a North Dakota boy I would think you would have the passenger side light aimed a bit down and towards the ditch a bit since all the roads there are raised a bit. I always did still do to this day just because of all the deer at night.
Thanks for another good one Mr. Mortske! Makes for a great start to Monday!
I always thought the "engineers" made the nut sizes different purely to drive us mechanics crazy.
Then again, a built in design to make us walk?
Or maybe to help our lungs as we yell for the apprentice to bring another wrench?
Things that make ya go Hmmm….
My brother in law took some of his lottery winnings and built a 1933 Chevy coupe. Built it on an unlimited budget. When he sold it he lost about $126k more or less. He paid all the craft people to do the work. He purchased everything that went into the car, no salvage parts. Most importantly he had it built and painted for him. When he sold nobody was looking for his dream. You'll hear this tale over and over. They all end the same. Unless you set your build up as a business venture and find a way to claim a capital loss you will take a bath on it. So it has to be a labor of love or you need to be paid to build for someone else on their dime. End rant here. Now a question. You like the Pontiac hubcaps. What are your thoughts on PMD factory wheels? I like Pontiac so I'm a fan of the wheels. Accumulated quite a pile over the years. But just curious if you're a fan of the PMD spoked wheels.
No…..$10k paint jobs do not exist, not if you don't do it yourself, and not if you care about what you're spending your money on.
White Steelies, of course!
Lots of great advice! Thanks for the video, you're the only thing I look forward to on a Monday morning. I get a lot of attention in my Chevelle and it always feels awesome! Catch you on the next one.
