Yes! Over 2 hrs of VGG! Great way to start a weekend
I agree 😅
Couldn’t have a better way to start the weekend
Crazy the content we get from this guy and his wife . ❤
@@timbcotree Right!?
Agreed
Ain’t nothing better than a couple cold snacks and a 2+ hour episode/video of VGG on a Friday night after a hard week out of town. Thanks Derik appreciate you
Why can't you bots just spell his name correctly out of simple respect?
@@XtremeChiliPepperprobly because their more than a few brews in!!! IDK 🤔
@@Viking74256 'wobble pops' LOL!
Shop lion ftw... 😂😅
@@XtremeChiliPepper no bot here chili pepper just cold snacks 🍻
Having your kid by your side, are moments that you only get once. Thanks for sharing, Derek.
A $60 DOLLAR Paint Job and worth every penny! .... A fun watch and with your young'un helping ... Priceless.
$60/paint + metal, primer, sanding disks, bondo, power, and days of work.
@mrmotofy a guy could have that stuff lying around with some extra time on his hands. I'm pretty sure he blew the budget because of what happened
@@mrmotofyAny excuses to convince yourself not do the hard work. Yea, no thanks.
Good to see ViceCat doing well little guys getting big.
It seems to be trying to figure out what the devil is going on?
Hasn't missed many meals. Thanks man for you guys giving fur baby a wonderful and loving home ❤
@@mj_slender6717Probably a lotta mice out there. They could have named him Mice Grip 😂. Oh well, maybe the next one!
That there is a shop lion 🦁
Caprice is looking like she's adapted fine to her life. Good kitty!
I love that you’re teaching your kids about mechanics cause you don’t see very many mechanic classes in school anymore
Kids today just don’t seem interested in cars..Hard enough teaching them the very very basics…
Love this, Derek! Dad had an 81 - 350 Silverado. I slept in it many a time when I got back from parties and the house was locked up. The thoughts about your Dad made my Evening. Great job, my Friend.
Sorry to hear about your grandma but so glad you had all the time you had to spend with her and now this truck will be a daily reminder of all the great times you have had with them.
Derek nails it again. The door art is simple and amazing at the same time. I can't believe it..... "I guess I have to, I'm looking right at it."
There is no better way for a guy to start a guys weekend than 2 hours of VGG...Thank You Derek!
Fix cape ice!
Derrick I just wanna say thank you! This is the only youtube channel I watch consistently with videos that average over an hour long, what you do reminds me so much of watching horsepower TV on spike every Saturday morning with my dad, thank you for all that you post and keeping hotrod alive!
I used to watch those same shows on spike as a teenager. My uncle's introduced me to the gearhead lifestyle as a young man and they were what I looked forward to every week. Most of my family was a GM only household but one uncle in particular was a mustang guy who pretty much set in motion the rest of my car obsession. As a teenager in the late 90's the 5 liter mustang was the top dog in my area. I never understood it until a friend of mine had an 85 GT that waxed all the local guys on the street. Track numbers didn't matter, it's what you could do at a stop light that set you apart.
Awesome
Little tip I learned when installing patch panels is to overlay the new panel over the old and cut them both at once. This gives you a nice clean line and makes it easy to tack in place. Learned that from one of the guys on power block a few decades ago 😅
Sometimes you get too much of a gap when you do that. If you keep trimming little by little you get the desired gap you want for a good weld
I love that you are showing and teaching Bentley the auto trades. I also love how he gets right in there doing the work. You’re a good dad.
Derek and his family represent everything that makes America great.
Its one of the many things that separates this channel from all the others. His instruction, humor, his family, and genuine humbleness really makes it the best.
Great Episode on Remington! Awesome!
Always good entertainment and a load of laughs talking to the camera like we were there funnin' & critisizin' with ya!
Are ya putting back Jay Wolfe's Dealer emblem's? Cause now ya got holes and it was painted.
Got a Jay Wolfe 1987 Acura Integra from Kansas City we got going up here in Southern Cow Hampsha'
Havin' fun with it!
Keep those great vids a comin'! 😊
A wonderful tribute to your Grandparents. They will always be in your work and your hearts.
60 bucks? Nope. Priceless.
Great job as always! The mirror wrassling was the best!
That was fun i learned quite a bit too. Awesome looking truck, Im in my 40s, those were the cool trucks around town in my glory days. Classic stuff.
My dad passed in 2018 but he was like you in so many ways about vehicles! All the questions I had for him, I find answers to in your videos! Single mom at 24 with 2 kids I want to teach about this one day when they’re older! Learning as much as I can but also, they might up and surprise me and start teaching me themselves lol
Love what you do! Thank you for bringing us along ❤
Love everything you do Derek, but especially a nice 2 hr video to start my weekend
Glad you like them!
@@ViceGripGarage My favorite is when you say: "Perfect, no...._______"
@@kurtvanluven9351Mine is "HELP ME UNDERSTAND", and "I wonder what (country star) is doin' today".
@@ViceGripGarage new cat loves the camera 😁
I'm a real perfectionist both on and off the job, and it's always helpful and instructive to see a great example of getting 80% there with 20% of the labor. Sometimes that's really the difference between getting something decent done and getting nothing done at all.
As a fellow perfectionist, that is more valuable than most know. HVAC installer here doing change-outs, which sometimes feels like I’m remodeling a house; it’s hard to not go the full 9 yards. Not everything has to be the Taj Mahal!
At my work, they oft repeat the mantra: don't let perfect get in the way of better. As you say, better to get something done than do nothing unless it's perfect!
Looks great and I love how you paid tribute to your grandparents! You actually remind me of my grandfather. He was always in his building working on something. And he was the best mechanic I have ever seen. That little guy is great help and going to be a chip off the ole block
Hey Derek
I painted my 1950 Ford shoebox with a 50 dollar gallon of John Deere Blitz Black flat paint and my cheap Hobo Freight spray gun, came out great, well, pretty good. Made me feel better to see you do the same. Great channel, great family, great American, 79 year old hot rodder still learning, appreciate what you do...
$120 paint job on that white truck for your brother was what first brought me to this channel. This kind of thing is right up my alley.
Bently is a hard working little man, I appreciate that and enjoy watching it.
Awesome tribute to your Grandparents and Family Unit!! Great economical paint job on the rig!! Wished a Feller and Family Unit lived up in my neck of the woods around Jonesborough, TN!! But, all & all just happy to have you all living here in I think the best state in the U.S.!! Sorry for the passing of your Grandma, but you said it best!! Celebrate Her life well lived!! Stay warm!! I guarantee this North Dakota cold snap will retreat!!
I can’t thank you enough Derek, Jessica and the kids. You guys do such great work as a family effort. Truly thankful for you guys and all you do behind the scenes.
Derek, thank you for being real in these videos and showing us the good the bad and the ugly. You could easily edit out all the mistakes and issues but you don’t and we get to see what it’s really like. Thanks for all that you do for us!
“Just a happy little tree there” Almost spit my coffee!! You’re definitely the Bob Ross of the square body! Taking something from nothing and making it something to look at!!! Thanks for a great show!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I grew up wrenching with my dad and I miss him and those times. Watching this brought back so many memories and emotions. Derek, you are giving more than you know.
You really outdone yourself on that one Derick. Bentley has become quiet the helper around the shop. That truck is "Sweet". May God Bless.
This one was a real treat. Over 2 hours of Vice Grip in one single sitting! Great stuff in this video too!
We love what you’re doing Derrick. Keep it up
Why can't you bots just spell his name correctly out of simple respect?
@@XtremeChiliPepperI ain’t a bot 💀
Great Job! Thanks for the tribute to your Grandparents!@
Remington is lookin' really good! Well deserved for a great old hard working truck. Especially like the beautiful way the rust outs were fixed.
Two hours of watching Derek do his thing brilliant, better than a week lying on beach ! Many thanks loved it
I don't know how this is for people not in the field but as trained metal worker and industrial mechanic that completely switched fields it is cathartic to watch someones process that clearly has years of experience and a feel for what they are doing. There are loads of people that do good metal work but the ones that have a connection to the metal that goes beyond just numbers and measurements, that can feel what is right and what isn't are on another level and a joy to watch and work with. That body work segment scratched an itch that I didn't even realize I had. Thanks Derek!
Thanks for watching buddy!
Just about the right amount of lipstick on the ol' girl. Nice enough to look at, rough enough to work. I love the tribute to your grandparents too, and Browder's work is triple-A plus plus.
I’m 57 years old ! Class of 84 I’ve owned my share of square body Chevys through the years… yours looks awesome!!!! I love the turbo Fan wheels!!!
Absolutely amazing transformation, looks awesome. Love the wheels as well. What a great way to pay homage to your grandparents. They would be very proud.
I think you are the single most important automotive UA-camr out right now. The way you explain multiple ways to do the same task you reach people at different budget points is amazing. Keep it up Derek!
What a transformation. Those patch panels you welded in were a work of art. Speaking of art....your buddy Browder is indeed a 'black belt' for sure.
Derrick My condolences to you and your family for your loss My prayers are with you and your family. I love and watch only your UA-cam channel
I’ve made a “paint booth” out of pvc pipe and drop cloth plastic. Couple filters in one end and exhaust fans (Walmart box fans) in the other with shop lights inside the booth. Works great! You can disassemble it for storage when done.
I had done a similar setup about 30+ years ago only I used an old house furnace blower that I salvaged from the dump. Worked great.
turns out Derek is actually pretty good at body work. i guess we want to see more of it :D not gonna lie tho the door dent drives me crazy
Great job ! Man knows when he’s Blessed when he is surrounded my friends and family. O and Old Trucks
Loved the video as always. My only minor request is that I’d like to see you protect your eyes and lungs a little bit better. Safety glasses or that Peterbuilt windshield visor and maybe a 3m half face P100 mask when painting or sanding. Once that crap gets in your lungs it doesn’t come back out. I know you love your family above all else like a man should, I’d like to see you stick around for them for as long as possible!! I’m not talking hazmat suit and gloves and hearing protection and hard hat, just safety glasses and a small respirator type mask like I use for airbrushing. Otherwise, Keep up the great work brother!!
BEST video yet I think. Over 2 hours long, make a rig nice and purdy, and you show everything!! No hiding the struggle and problems you run into!
Thanks Derek keep the square body stuff coming we found mine hiding in a barn since 1991 ! You give us hope lol 😆
I have a 1986 M1008, which is the military version of the Chevy K30. I sprayed it with Behr Flat Exterior House Paint from home depot. Mixed to my color code specs. Which for a military paint look/feel, worked perfectly. 12 years later, and there are a rust few spots, few chips, little fading in places. But heck, it has lasted for 12 years. That's pretty good for house paint driving at 55mph down the road, and sitting outside in the driveway. I will repaint it at some point, would like to do it this summer. But have so much other work to do, I doubt I get to it.
What an amazing change! Totally agree with you - wasn't a lot of $$ but sure was a lot of skilled labor. Not just the time on the project, but your years of experience with this sort of work showed (as it always does). For me something goes wrong and I'm like "ah crap I don't know how to fix this now", but you just power through and fix it and nobody can tell! I love your long form videos, always makes me happy to see you post. I'm truly sorry for your loss, and love that you honored your Grandparents with the paint job - your buddy did a fantastic job. Much love bro!
You give a guy hope for his old rig. Thanks for the great content and sorry for you loss Derek.
We're dang near snowed in here.. glad I have something to watch!
We're getting nailed in salt lake city Utah 🎉
Man I know your proud of that young man. Chip off the block. Truck looks great.
I always liked your videos, they make me happy and make me smile. I laugh inside when you're making some of your comments about fixing things, stepping over things, viewing things, pretending you didn't see some thing and explaining things people or viewers mught ask about. For me, your channel is relaxing and gives my mind a needed break thanks for the video.
Great insight on cabin corner repairs and both rear fender bottom metal repairs behind the rear tires. First time where I have practical approach to setup, bending,trimming, and finalization. Great approach to repairs.
Way to go boss for bringing the boys working on the barn, a cold snack for coffee time!!! that’s a good boss right there!
Is that the first time we have ever seen Derek partake in a cold snack?
Watching old school pinstripers and sign painters is simply amazing. Another great build!
Sorry for your lost great job on the shop truck for low budget may God bless your family
This is the kind of video I been waiting for, simple, easy patch panels to get you by and same with the paint. This content was fantastic!
Number one. Derek is the auto shop teacher we all should have had back in school. Two, the barn cat is a Diva. Three, Bentley will be a gear head for life and that's just great! Loved this one like all the rest. Thanks Derek!
A "Honey Boo Boo" reference! Haven't heard that in foreva! Love it! Keep it classy Derek! 🙂
I gotta say, I love this. A simple and budget build anyone can do. I only wish I could aford a square body. At least I can watch you doing it up
Great tribute to your grandparents, Derek. Looks like a new rig.
Thanks 👍
@@ViceGripGarage you're such an inspiration to alot of us here. I'm 52 with a 15yo son and I take lessons from you on how I'm raising him. He's homeschooled by me and we are both car freaks LOL. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING MY GUY♥️
Great job bringing the old truck back around! Family heritage is pretty darned important and it's great that it's being shared with your kids as well!
Really glad to see you are just as concerned how it looks as how well it runs
half a cold pepperoni pizza and 2 cups of coffee, along 2+ hours of Vice Grip filmographination, my Friday is feeling mighty fine.
Love shop security is always lurking in the background 😂 Really enjoy watching how to save these old rigs
Glad you enjoyed
that's the Mousenator 5000™
Derek, this was another great update! I'm so sorry for the loss of your grandmother. This was a wonderful Tribute to to her memory. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
LOL, you saved me 60 dollars. I was considering this paint for my 83 Wagoneer. Man, I would’ve painted the wheels with the same color paint as the rear bumper.
Hi from France, Your videos keep getting better and better, please continue, Its so helpful !
Awsome job Derek. What a way to celebrate your grandparents. I love ❤️ how you teach the boys your way of rebuilding..
Love to see something done with the interior. The exterior deserves it
Agreed! A decent seat rummaged around for at different junkyards could really make that a true going to town rig! Somethings gotta be done with those door cards too. Simple fix.
Thanks Derek for showing us a practical respray of a work truck.
I think a lot of projects stall at bodywork chasing perfection.
Newsflash its a worktruck and was never straight even off the factory floor.
Great job on the truck Derek, one of the first trucks I remember travelling in with my dad.. later on working with him in the same truck a few years later! Lots of memories! Bentley is really becoming a great helper for you around the shop and its great to see him picking up the skills from his dad!
This truck restoration was amazing. We love the paint on the doors to commemorate Dereks grandparents its beautiful! Remington will run for many moons and do its job around the Lodge. Derek better watch out Jessica may snatch this baby up for getting her groceries! Always good to see Bentley helping his dad on these vehicles. Good video, nice wheels, now to replace that seat and do the inside cab?!
i think bentley was eyeballin that for cruzin for chickzzzzz bentley thats a chick magnet you will have to beat them off with stick son😉
Good job Derek ,Bentley,& Caprice( cat).
Enjoyed this episode and the tribute on the doors(Bieri Farms).
Take care.
I painted my 80 K10 in the driveway with Rustoleum safety blue using a harbor freight gun 10 years ago. I thinned with mineral spirits and added enamel hardener from Tractor supply. It’s still all one color and looks okay.
It's probably 1 of the best videos I have watched in a good long time. Always look forward to VGG videos, and this 1 topped it off.
Awesome 2 hrs. Looks great and a tribute to your Grandparents is priceless. Love that you involve your sons with your work. Gotta get the young involved as wrenching on your own rigs will continue to be a dying art. Love your channel
Crazy thing is you’re not in the least bit lazy! You’re like a friggen chore master.
Love the body wash and water trick for mounting the tires. I've always just used straight dish soap and it does exactly what a guy needs
There are many words to describe you, but LAZY is definitely NOT one of them. Love all the work you put in for all of us Fellas and Fellettes just to entertain us.
Sending love from my family to yours, thank you for everything you do for your fans, and I'm sorry for your loss but glad you were able to express your love for your grandparents with that beautiful painting. My little boy also was happy to see Bentley, he's a big fan of his and hopes to see another episode of Little Grip Garage someday. Hope you are doing well and remember to take time out for yourself as well, we love you and the videos you make, but I'm sure i speak for a lot of us that we'd be just as happy knowing you are remembering to put your feet up with the family.
In the early ‘70s , the auto painting franchise,Earl Shiebs , would paint any car for $19.95 . The color selection was limited and just enamel, but if you did your own trim removal and masking job, the results were actually pretty good.
Watching this makes me really miss my first truck. A 1984 Chevy c10, had to sell it so I could have a roof over my head and I regret it every day. An 84 c10 is like finding a needle in a hay stack. That truck was the huge reason I started working on vehicles. Thank you for making these videos. I love watching your channel. Can't wait till my boys are a little older to help my husband and I with our future projects!
I really appreciated the lesson on the patch panel, I can see how a little bit of planning and thought can make the job a lot easier.
I really love watching your videos, even little Grip Garage and Vice Grip Lodge... You and your family are awesome, I Love how you and your family share in the recordings, and whomever edits the content is awesome. I Love the personalities, the being natural... All of you, you, Jessica and your 3 kids, have become a regular part of my every day. Thank you for being a source of relief from my day to day while edumicating me! 😏
Thanks for sharing your Remington project with us. Great monumental tribute to your grandparents. Everyone who sees this episode will remember to think of your grandparents whenever Remington is spotted in the background of future projects you post. You're a good man Sir.
Beautiful truck! The style, paint color, wheels, and signage, all top notch.
Good job Derek. Nice tribute to your grandparents. I miss mine. I have a 4 year old grandson too and hope to have as positive an influence on him as they made on me. My favorite is still you and your brother getting your Grandpa's truck running again, but this will be a lasting tribute. Not just the art, but the fact that it's a working truck! Being used like a truck!
Just did a similar level of paint job with a friend's son. He brought himself his first hotrod pickup and wanted to shine'r up a little bit.let him do most of the dirty work sanding and prepping. Done up in the dusty old shop. Turned out decent enough with some single stage paint that a guy can stand back 20' and squint one eye and feel pretty good about himself. The young feller was so thrilled and proud of himself for the work he put into his pride and joy. After a couple months of nights and weekends, ended up having a great time working with him. I think he learned a lot and I ended enjoy a project again just for the sake of doing a project. Can't wait to see him cruising around town this summer!
What ever became of The Shop Lion. Black cats are the best! Several of them have title to my heart.
Great content.Nice to young ones learning team work.Great family man.Thank you God bless.
I stopped working on my vehicles almost 40 years ago, but enjoy the heck outta watching you do what you do, Derek. I find your channel fascinating, even thought I know I'll never work on my own vehicles again. It's nice to 'repair vicariously' through Vice Grip Garage. Happy New Year to you and your very nice family!
I took quit working on cars years ago but still enjoy watching Derek work. I quit working on cars for medical reasons.
I feel the same way.
Much respect to all American Families and men! This is a great country for people like this. Simply make stuff better.. that’s it! Love yall!
Derek I absolutely love your channel and I truly enjoy seeing you pass your knowledge on to your young men, Keep up the good work! Awesome tribute to your Grandparents. From my family to yours, we are all sorry for your loss.
Very nice, i love the fact that it is going to be used for what it was made for!
looove that you're getting into some concrete bodywork with a build. always hoped you would do that more. it means that there's some real roadworthy-ness on the horizon for a lot of your rescues. would be nice to see the big old LeSabre brought back and being done - if you still have it. Love that car
Remington looks awesome and I absolutely love the tribute on the doors for your grandparents. Thank you for another awesome episode Derek. 👏
Great job! I’ve used the same paint on a few different trucks. The hardener is worth the extra$. it seems to lay down a little better, and gets harder quicker, and. Awesome video as always.
A fantastic tribute to your grandparents, and as a custom painter you really made me chuckle. Great stuff.
It's in very good shape for the age!
Good idea to make it last!
Nice to see it getting some TLC!
Thanks for the video!
Derrick , Great Job on the upgrade and restoration of the old Chevy Farm Truck . You've definitely breathed new life into it. Honoring your grandparents with the Bieri Farms Artwork is fantastic . I really admire the mechanical ability that Bentley has and your working along with him as young lad which has really developed his talent and confidence. All your sons are a credit to you and Jessica. Greetings from New Brunswick Canada
First of all I love the work you did and the approach to fix up your project. Now I heard a fella say he didn’t want a bunch of sympathy but- my condolences to you and your family on the loss of your grandmother. Honoring the family the way you did was first class.
