Dude is immortal, no welding mask, no respirator, no gloves. Lungs of steel...
Thanks for watching , Next time I will get all PPE, my next one is a f350 rockers and cab corners
I love seeing rust removal and treatment. Wish I could afford to have someone do the work on my dad's truck, but I can't, so I'll have to do it.
They should outlaw road salt ! They put it on 2 inches thick here in northern Vermont. It destroys everything
Great video !
I've watched quite a few restorations and wonder why not affix square tube then weld the trims to it heavier stronger and easily bolted together...
First , the budget, second this is the second restoration for me and my brother , next one will be probably different, learning from mistakes. 👍
