Does it not make you feel a little weird inside when you try yo talk like the dude? I mean its so unique where nobody else has ever been like buddy before so its not like its not obvious. Is just odd, like when old white guys try to act all black n stuff.
Derek, Most important things I have learned on all your videos is that it is OK not to be perfect and mistakes will be made. In either case simply move forward.
I stumbled across your channel whilst recovering from covid here in England. I’ve now watched hours and hours of your stuff and love what you do! You are one of the funniest guys on UA-cam and Your road trips all over the US really make me want to do a big drive myself. Keep up the good work, John from UK
Make sure you watch the one where he uses alcohol laden starting fluid to get a long dead motor running . After he opens the hood and finds a big wasp nest he immediately squirts the starting fluid and lights it with his lighter he barbecued the shit the shit out of those wasps he named that one “the Dewaspilskator-2000J”
I had the pleasure of meeting and talking cars with the owner and founder of Vintage Air, Jack Chisenhall, at SEMA 2019. You would be hard pressed to meet a more down to earth or nicer car guy than Jack. Great products from one heck of a good guy. Derek and Jack would talk for days about working on cars.
I always appreciate how simply you break things down. You've saved me a lot of money because I've expanded the amount I'm "willing" to work on and greatly increased my confidence.
I sure do like your content Dereck , this is by far one of the best channels and one of the reasons I’m moving back east. People are just better in the middle of America . Y’all rock and I hope to be more like y’all.
Hey brother. I'm loving the channel!!! A ton of us up here in Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦 watch your channel religiously. Could you please do a series of you finishing the white Cadillac you pulled out of the field. I'd love to see it restored and painted so that it on perfect running condition. It's a great old car and deserves to be restored. I guarantee it will get you a ton of views and likes!!!!👍👍👍. Thanks Derek🙂. Keep up the great content
Amen brother preach it, the only thing he didn't do that I would have done was remove the steering wheel and column cause I installed them in cars to the tune of 91 an hour at Pontiac Motor DIV. GM. back in 75 just for the nostalgia . NO...... NOT
These trucks are built like Lego kits with bolts. You can remove that entire front clip with nothing more than 3 box end wrenches out of a $20 Father's Day special toolbox if you wanted, nothing about what he did to prep for this install was difficult
Vintage Air is great stuff , I used them when I put a GM LS engine in my 68 Cougar. One phone call to them and they supplied me with all the part #s this fella needed. 👍
Love seeing progress on all the projects. Ready kick my cancer’s tail so a guy can get his LSX S-10 going. Thank you for the videos and keeping my spirits high during my treatments VGG! Fan forever!
I was just talking with my neighbor about vintage air. I have a 73 stepside 3 on the tree with a not so much horse 250. I didn't realize how much is involved. Doesn't look to bad. Great video. 👍
Great job Derek, I put Vintage Air in my '71 C10 with "Factree" air for the same reasons. Here in Tucson A/C is not a luxury, it's necessary to support human life!
This is going to be an awesome weekend! Got my cold snack, there is a new special from The Grand Tour, going to pickup a parts engine this sunday and to top it off VGG has a brand spanking new video! Cheers.
I told my wife 2 years ago when I first started watching you that you're either going to be on roadkill or have your own show you're there buddy good job
Vintage Air for years it's been a great value investment for older cars. Specially as more traffic on the road and sitting in traffic keeps it nice and cool without overheating.
Fellers, it's always a great idea to go that xtra step when fix'n on your rig. Vacuum out the floorboard, clear the bugs off their windshield. Customers notice these little bits. And it only takes a couple minutes!
So happy to see the truck build series kicking into gear, all those pieces a guy has been stacking up for a long time finally get to come together and make an amazing going to town rig
Just installed one of these on my 73 Camaro. Was definitely a bit intimidating at first, but it was actually quite easy. Another fun watch as always Derek!
Favorite channel, hands down! A feller has been following this build since before airbags came out in cars... Nope, but it has been...a while Anywho, keep it up, 98.273% looking forward to seeing this rig get cookie tested. 😏😎
Derek I owe you an apology, like many I came across your channel In the suggestions box. I would watch a couple of minutes and think this guy is off his head. The number of subscribers you have can't be wrong! Once taking the time to watch a complete episode i now understand. Sir you are a genius, love the channel. I know nothing about 🇺🇸 cars being from the UK but I'm hooked. Love it.
I want to thank you so very much for all of your informative videos. 🧐🤗Because of you, I had the heart to work on my 1998 Saturn SC2 (I am the original owner) lawn ornament for the last 5 years in our yard under lots of trees.

Absolutely love these crew cabs. One day I’d like to duramax swap my 87 gmc. Maybe one day, just maybe.. dang big blocks are almost too expensive to drive now 😂
Thank you for the video Derek! My friend- Landis, his father started the vintage air company. I never installed one of Mr. Chisenhall's AC systems before but after watching you put one of their units in, I now believe I will tackle puting one in on my 77' C10 that's never had A/C, for power tour 2021 and cruisin the coast 2021 in october. Keep making that great content brotha 👍
Had a ‘76 Crew cab dully camper special, 454, same burnt Orange body but with a kind of a butterscotch roof and side accent panels. It was 2 years old when we bought it and had 46000 miles on the counter. Drive it it for 10 years and traded it off for something.a little more economic on the gas.I paid the fellow who I bought it from almost double what he originally bought it for and when I sold it after 300,000 miles I got more then what I paid for it. It is as a great truck, loved every mile of it.
Dr. Lee! Maybe you and Derek could get together as a video thingy? Only thing is, don't let him touch the keys or you might be replacing a LOT of pasture after he tests it out.
Seen this truck in the background of many a vid great to see it progressing, love the era and design with the wood grain gonna be the dream rig once finished.
a guy should learn to WAIT when Jessica is on her way to help.. Love watching her Mechanical Ability's in action too.. in any event Still an Excellent Video.. thanks for sharing..

So a guy got his femur snapped in a car accident back in December and had to have surgery. I found your channel while laid up from that and every time I hear your intro song it brings me back. Your channel really got me thru a crappy few months! Great stuff!
Curious with that being the crew cab how many BT of U’s the more compact unit will provide. Give us a 1 to 10 later on comfort level with family aboard on a hot day.
I'm a big fan of black engine bays and firewalls. Makes for easy cover and touch up. Looks good too. You can use that $50 spray paint to mark your trail to your deer stand. Waste not want not. As Always, May God Bless you and yours!

Derek, Most important things I have learned on all your videos is that it is OK not to be perfect and mistakes will be made. In either case simply move forward.
That's one of the things which sucks about the TV garage shows. Every single bolt always comes off. Everything fits and they are done in 30 minutes.
Love to see that you’re wife helps out on these things. Most guys dream about this!
I'm sure that you're sure of your mistake.
I work on mine to get away from my wife.

"I've cut too many corners and had some regrets" (5:50) sounds like the title of a hit country song... Love it!

Now the old truck is looking cool as ice..

Great Video!!! My wife and I love all your content. Keep it coming!!! Thanks!!
Been wanting to see more work on the old '74 and dropped right before lunch? Pure gold.
One thing I have learned from VGG is that you get in there and get er done, even if you can't do it perfectly. Thanks for that Derek!
You do a great job of balancing instructions and dialogue with time lapse stuff… keep up the great work!

Nice work Sir! It's nice to see the wife helping out. A family that fix's together sticks together!
Yup got that done too. Perfect. Keep up the good work Derrick.

Nice clean install, looks great. Good point on the economics of replacing the whole system.
Thanks David

That's awesome Derek I love this truck and build! That looks really simple to install and looks so much cleaner! Those gauges are sweet to!
Pretty slick system. Gonna be a sweet ride!
I most certainly did enjoy it! I look forward to further episodes of working on this vehicle.
Anyone else mesmerized by the air freshener flapping around in the time lapse? You gotta enjoy the little things
WOW! Was cruising the UA-cams and look at this gem I found!!
I just did one of these in a 1978 K20 that came from the factory as a non A/C truck. Awesome kit. Fits in the truck very well and works great
