    To fix the tailgate, go to the automotive store and get "Morpar Penetrating Fluid" its great stuff. Remove the plastic latch cover and spray the mopar fluid down both hand rods as well is in the latches that are located on the sides of the tailgate. Then hold tailgate in the closed position, while leaning against the end gate pull the handle as if you are trying to open the end gate and push or release handle. Continue to pull and release handle a few times and the tailgate should start functioning properly again. Please like so he sees.

    Liking the older truck projects. I know you need another build project (not), but you know what would be cool, keeping with the vintage projects you have, would be to build a late style C4 street Corvette canyon racer. '91 to '96 style. That is a really affordable platform to buy, and build. All came stock with formula one suspension, with the flip nose, and are easy to work on. Very light, great power plant. Even better '94 thru '96 with refined Opti. It would be a full circle move too. A lot of us subscribed when you had your early C4 project. Great content as always. Best to the Bulls.

      Jordan Burchett - My first truck was exactly the same! 4x4 with the 6-lug "wagon wheel" rims. I still miss Bertha. She was a powder blue factory colour. I repainted her in GM Deep Indigo Metallic Pearl. She was a good girl. Had to sell her when I moved to the states.

    Since your going with the “resto mod” can you ls swap it ......... please

    • @BigSalP
      @BigSalP 5 років тому +2

      I don't believe Mike knows what the term "Resto-Mod" truly means. So unfortunately I don't think you'll see a late model engine and suspension swap, which is the heart of all resto-mod projects.
      It would have been nice to see an LS Swap, hooked to a TREMEC TKO 5-Speed, or Magnum 6-Speed, then completely do over the suspension with nice drop and Hotchkiss suspension for road handling. And finish it off with a hot set of road wheels and tires.

    Frame and underside of any truck if you want to get it super clean and all the "stuff" off of it, use easy off oven cleaner and a pressure washer. Takes off everything so u can recoat it and not seal rust and stuff in under paint or undercoat. Spray it wait 30 min and rinse. Works killer!!

    put the tailpipe back on and In the space in between, where the muffler was, put in a glass pack or a straight piece of pipe. I had a '97 Silverado with the Vortec 5.7/350 & it was straight piped & the cats were emptied out, It ended up very loud & sounded great... Keep the great vids coming bud, I love the OBS GM pickups & suv's and like seeing the old vehicle builds. Nice buy btw, Great Deal!!

  • @rcairforceone
    @rcairforceone 5 років тому +1

    If you want this to be a proper restomod, you need cut all the rust out. It will make the finished product that much better. You need to keep it with a 90s theme, IMO. 16" American Racing Outlaw II or AR23, 285/75/16 tires (no lift) and maybe a grille update.

    • @coltonellison5355
      @coltonellison5355 5 років тому +1

      Not to mention body filler just exposed like that is just absorbing moisture. He thinks it’ll take a while to rust out but with all the rain in P.A. and it constantly absorbing and holding moisture like that I wouldn’t be too sure.

  • @coltonellison5355
    @coltonellison5355 5 років тому +1

    Mike exposed body filler like that is going to be a massive problem especially with all the rain you get. Body filler ABSORBS moisture. So each time it gets wet it is literally just trapping that moisture against the body. The rust is going to need to be cut out and properly repaired for this truck to have any sort of life span.
