    Your chicken truck is looking, I give you high honors, more like a Mexican Fighting 🐓 Rooster. You are a very talented individual with a highly artistic talent in your creation, on a low budget. That is what I appreciate in a garage build.

    You have such a good eye for what work's on these old beauties, you picked a good name for your channel. I was so glad to see a video, because I'm down for awhile from having a knee replacement that took over 3 hour's, when the surgeon said it should take 45 minutes. I told the guy i had an MRI back in 2018, and that it showed a cyst in my tibia where i had ACL reconstruction in 09, and a ganglion cyst growing around my tendons. The guy was trying to tell me it was something else, and only took a dang x ray. After surgery, i had no family with me because they're mostly gone, but this Dr. tells me nothing but it was a mess in there. They did blood woork before the surgery, and afterwards, which i have never had them do even after, even when the original work accident that jacked up my whole leg. I wrote all the stuff down, and all the blood counts were below normal, and my white blood count was way above high, but was normal before surgery, that's why they kept me longer and were giving me i.v. antibiotics. I'm saying all this, because always have an advocate with you, and don't let them tell you you don't know your own body, and get a second opinion if they don't listen. I know 4 people right now having to be the Dr. to tell them what the problem is, two of these people almost died. Sorry for goung off on here, but the medical help is garbage no matter where you live, and filled with such bs, it's not just the quality of the junk being made today.
    G-d bless, and the chicken tryck is getting a new grill so he doesn't feel so violated. Bei g i. Michigan, not looking forward to the snow, come on spring.

    Hi Kyle. The Cadilac bumper and grill look awesome on the chicken truck! Pretty interesting to see the blue green tarnish on the underside of the top rail when you turned it over.

OK, it was alright, just unexpected. Loved watching you crunch about in the snow, reminded me that here in the U.K. we endured the worst snow storm for about 26 gazillion years recently. At least 3 inches and laid for almost 4 days thanks to those minus 6 degree C temps. We are tough in the north aren’t we? Good vid.
